nail struck squarely on head...it's the "slot" problem. the poor camo guys are stuck with these integrally numbered "slots" (records within a file) all over the place. frankly what they've achieved, given the poor architecture they inherited, is nothing short of amazing.
i picture myself, in a previous professional life, telling a client that if he wanted to add more customers he'd have to get rid of some existing customers as all the "customer slots" were full.
