Hello all. I just wanted to update you all. John is right. There is something very wrong with the system. For some reason, the system is deleting all of the requests except for the ones you are checking in or out. I have no idea why it would be doing this. I've looked at the diffs between the old ibiblio version of the program and the new snowy version, and I haven't been able to find anything that looks even remotely like it might be causing this. I really need someone smarter than I to look at things and perhaps they can solve the problem. Another solution would be to migrate to MYSQL, but that isn't something I am going to be able to program at the moment thanks to the huge work-load I'm under from school. So, any takers? Does any of you perl folks want to reach into the guts of my code and see if you can fix whatever is broken? Thanks all for your patients through this difficult time. Sincerely Aaron Cannon
