Re: [mv] transactions.txt

Hi Rob,

That's funny I have/had the same problems:

I had to make MV export the transactions.txt to make it work and then, if
I would have placed a couple of orders, the different fields would get
"messed up".
The problem, i guess lies in the transactions-db corrupting, because if I
delete the .gdbm and replace the text-file with the original empty one and
the place a couple of orders, things go fine.

I dunno, but it sounds like a "bug" (Mike ?)

Good luck and don't let the program get you down,
once you have it up and running it's great !
