My thanks to all developers for a fine piece of software! Question: When I
post (or edit) a contact I can't seem to put more than a line or two in the notes field without it getting truncated when I submit the information. Is there a way to change this to allow for longer input? I have just installed the latest version... I don't know if this has always been the behavior or if this is new.

Your question is very interesting - it's actually a 5 year old bug! No one - including me - seems to have noticed this before. The database field for 'notes' in the 'contacts' table is set to 100 characters ('VARCHAR(100)'), when it should really be 'TEXT'. You can use a program such as phpmyadmin to change the field from VARCHAR(100) to TEXT, or you can use SQL commands from a commandline ('ALTER TABLE contacts MODIFY notes TEXT'). The database creation files are now updated in the Subversion SVN at Sourceforge too. Andrew Simpson ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
