I’m still bogged down at work with a data conversion program. The more I add and fix, the more needs to be added. I was working on adding accounting to the conversion when my boss asked me to review the conversion document. Good thing, too, since I found four other tables that needed to be converted.
Now, I’ve been temporarily pulled off that to work on a problem with the product. It seems that when you add some data in one area of a specific type, somehow the type information gets changed. Well, I’ll track that down this morning and fix it, I hope.
