BgMetrics - Known Problems
- When the database gets large it slows opening and closing of the program. We hope to either find a small (quick?) database driver or at least add an archiving function in the future to keep the datasets smaller.
- Although there are choices for "Sort Ascending-Descending-None" It is best to use "Sort none" in the program. There seems to be a glitch in the container control when "Adding" records in "Sort ascending" mode where the newest record that matches a specific date is always pushed to the top of the matching (date) records and we have not found a way around it.
- Try using a monospaced font for the new meter readings by opening the system font pallette and dragging one to the listbox. System Monospaced or System Vio are good choices.
- For some reason, although I believe all functions are shut down after doing a meter reading, some of the dialogs are slower opening. This has been noticed with the "Progress meter" and the "Opening/Closing" Splash screen.
- Every so often there have been a few glitches noticed in the report writer. Sometimes you may see a stem variable where data should appear. (It might say "DATA.1.YMD" instead of the actual date for example) Try closing the preview window or even restarting the program to try again. This is a weird bug but it alternatively does or doesn't work with the same dataset so it is believed that it is the report writing software that is not converting the data correctly everytime.
