Re: Data Allign Problem in TS6??

I have done this long enough to expect a degree of nondeterminism and
unpredictabiliy from software.  An example: Yesterday I added in GS a
December 2010 contract, which then displayed in the portfolio showed
expiration date November 1932 and would refuse to be edited claiming
incorrect expiration date.  When I deleted it and re-inserted again - no
problem!
