Noticed bugs in AMB 1.9

[AMVAS]

Hi,
During usage of the program I found the next bugs.

1. I don't know why, but at least 2 books' description downloaded from Ozon were not complete and somewhat incorrect.
Searching for the title of the book "Крепости на колесах"
http://www.ozon.ru/context/detail/id/1153344/
In resulting record I couldn't find abstract for this book and was surprised to find
"Танки мира (сост. Исмагилов Р.). Серия: Арсенал" in series field. I have to note this text fragment was WHITE! so, I could notice it only after adding the record and observing fictive series title, or after selecting text in this text field prior to adding of the record.

The same bug as found for the book
Гражданская война в Испании. Действия на Центральном фронте. Октябрь 1936 - апрель 1937 года
http://www.ozon.ru/context/detail/id/2801740/

I guess text in the text field can be different, maybe depending on the clipboard content


2. Sometimes after no results were found in the course of search inside my books database I can't close search form. Only closing the whole application helps

Thank you very much...

Another bug was found.
No ideas why it takes place. Probably something unique.
Take a look at the file
http://narod.ru/disk/18308318000/Sale2.amb.html

While trying to export it in Excel format I get program frozen on the table of master.
Strange but I have no such problem for my another database file, which is 10 times greater!
Any ideas why it can take place?

Regards
Alex

Hm, strange..
The database in the link is exported ok. May be you will show the screenshot of the frozen window? There should be seen which setting are in the export window.

Here is this screenshot.
It's the 2nd stage of "freeze". Can't make screenshot of the 1st stage, when some details can be seen inside the master form.

P.S. I use Excel 2003

Hi, Alex!
As for the screenshot, we would like ask you about HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/AllMyBooks/ExcelExportState registry value. You can find it out using standard Windows registry editor regedit.exe
After you get to know the value and tell us what it is, it's possible to try and remove this value, restart All My Books and once again try exporting into MS Excel...

Ok, this value was:
1,4,14,26,2,6,19,7,17,28,29,30,32,34,35,33,

[AMVAS]

Yess!!!
this helped! Now it got unfrozen!

Looks this state depends on some combination of fields included in output file settings!

Thank you very much!!!!

[Gemini]

Great!!! Thank you very much either, now we'll try to find out the reason for this problem and fix it.

Seems I'm among those ones, who provides difficult tasks for you

however keep a good work! The program is really excellent!
Can't wait when you are able to include my favorable alib.ru site among your databases

You know difficult tasks are the most interesting ones

Thanks for the idea ...

Been a programmer I agree

Hope to supply you with new puzzles later (not so dramatic as this one though...)

Okay, I'll be waiting...

[AMVAS]

Okay, I'll be waiting...

He-he.. Seems it's time to represent one more bug to be caught

Description: After unsuccessful search can't close search form sometimes

Sequence of operations:
http://rapidshare.com/files/382309158/Bug_AMVAS.avi

1. Open search form
2. Type search words
3. Click "Search" (No records found)
4. Try to delete search phrase by "Del" key (surprisingly got a request for file deleting. Cancel this operation of course)
5. Remove search phrase by selecting it and replacing with a new one
6. Trying to close search form.
7. No success. It's not frozen, but no reaction on "cancel" and "x" buttons
8. Quit of application helps.

Good luck!
