George PattonQuirk when writing essages in the forum
Has anyone else noticed tha sometimes characters ge dropped when typing here in the forum? I have to go bac and check everything twice since I upgraded to Win 7 and IE 8 ...
I'm only a 2-finger typist as well, so excessive speed can't be the cause. - And yes, I did notice the "m" missing in th header, ad the other ones incuded here. These are typical examples ....

Francis MarianiI am primarily on a Win XP/FF 4 environment, but I also use Win 7/IE 8 and I haven't had this issue.

WazI'm on XP/IE 6, and do have this issue, but I think its my fungers that are the issue.
Perhaps its not my fongers, but something else, I'll keep tabs on it.

<FreSte>And it keeps on working ...
All you have to do is build up a veeerrrryyyyy looooong list with all the errors
your keyboard makes
LET TABEL = TABLE
LET FLIE = FILE
LET PRITN = PRINT
LET COUNRTY = COUNTRY
TABEL FLIE CAR
PRITN COUNRTY
END

Waz quote:
LET TABEL = TABLE
I knew someone who did this in their training, and confused the instructor to no end.

DougI remember writing "TFC", as an abbreviation for "TABLE FILE CAR", on the board during Top Gun Training at 1250 Broadway (IBI's location at the time) which led to a discussion about the LET command. I only did the TFC as not to write out the complete TABLE FILE CAR. But, something good always (normally) comes out of everything...
Just some thoughts...
