050701 - Installed updated code on Denis' computer to help him recover from the
050702 - problem reported at ref SDS 9 line 040601.
050703 -
050704 -     This has improvements made as explained at ref SDS 8 line 050601.

0604 - Summary/Objective
0605 -
060501 - Follow up ref SDS 6 line 070501.
060502 -
060503 -    Found Time field is entered on some tasks as a 3 digit number
060504 -    instead of 4 digit, and this seems to have crashed the whole thing,
060505 -    as explained in detail in Denis' records, ref SDS 10 line 070801.
060506 -
060507 -         The problem arose because he printed his Schedule and found
060508 -         the time field running into task descriptions.  He tried to
060509 -         compensate by entering Time one column left, and this messed
060510 -         up archiving, and other things, ref SDS 10 line 071266.
060511 -
060512 -    I fixed his Schedule, and explained how to avoid the problem; later
060513 -    in the day, I changed the SDS code so it is more forgiving, ref SDS
060514 -    11 line 050701, and added feature to enter time automatically with
060515 -    mouse, instead of manually typing it in.

080606 -
080607 -   Made the adjustment above on line 102 of 0450431.
080608 -
080609 -   Probably still have to re-set the left margin in 0450431 for
080610 -   correspondence and the Subj, Ref fields in the letter format file,
080611 -   0501.
