Amazing, strange, and mystifying

[xavier.bury at clearstream.com]

changing a script and then later realizing it wasn't saved happens OFTEN!

Not every day but when it hits you, you can be sure you have to revise ALL 
your script changes in that session.
I've done multiple changes to more than one object and then revising 
noticed NONE of the scripts were 
saved!!! 

i think this has been reported before btw...

cheers
