Re: PSPP-BUG: unlikely but possible bug

[Friedrich Beckmann]

Hi Brian,

it matters which cell you exactly change. Can you reproduce the problem 
starting from an empty sheet? Can you describe exactly in which cell you are 
typing, i.e. row and column? If you cannot produce the problem from an empty 
sheet we would need an example dataset together with your click and enter 
sequence.

Thanks

Friedrich
