Makes me wonder this. I had a piece of software for automated banking that was running the largest chain of fitness clubs in Canada automated payment department, and I had what you'd call the Alice in Wonderland hole somewhere. During testing I kept getting outlandish things happen. I eventually stayed up 3 days straight and found it. It was like if this and this and this and this then jump and do that type of thing and the subroutine punched up several lines of identical data.

In this case I'm wondering if there is a similar type of problem with the undo feature where in a certain state it goes back to as far as it can, and undoes the max. levels of undo rather than just one.

In my case that company has expanded to about 200 clubs across Canada, and I sold my wife with the company and she's still there. I should have asked for a penny a transaction I'd be so rich. I got 3 grand for Y2K work, found out after the were 3 quotes, 90 grand, 58 grand and mine at 3. I sang what kind of fool am I for months. It took an hour to change 2 fields from 2 digit date codes to 4. Logged on from home. Had the wife run a full report on a test system, changed the data base, never touched the code, and she ran the same report Sunday from home and everything worked. I thought I stole 3k until I heard the other quotes.

Software is a funny thing. They have a programmer from Toronto doing some of what I did, they come up with some hair brained scheme like if a cat goes across the road in Victoria on a full moon pay commissions at 1.5% during March break if the sale was made before noon. I used to just say no. Anyway they spent 5000 dollars recently, would not work. The guy goes back, my wife shows me the code, I point she shakes her head and fixes it. I told her to tell them I wanted 1k for the work but didn't get it LOL.
