Rob,
What client OS were you using (NT?). I updated log 87373 using the Add
Entry time stamp as well as typing in a few lines without any problems. I
was using Solaris.
It's also possible that the clipboard copy/paste that you performed fixed
the problem.
Has this problem been duplicated on a record other than 87373?
