Delete & Duplicate Commands

Problem

A user reported that they sometimes accidentally hit the Delete Record command instead of Duplicate Record, since the two commands are close together in the Edit menu, and start with the same letter.

We already give a warning message before deleting any records (and ask twice if the record has a large number of breakdowns). But apparently when users are on a roll, they will sometimes just go ahead and click OK without thinking.

Solution

Goldenseal small business software version 3.7 separates the two commands by using a slightly different arrangement in the Edit menu. This is a very minor change, but hopefully it will help reduce accidents.

HINT-- Please please please back up your files, at least once a day! Then you can always fall back on a recent copy, if you accidentally delete something important.
