Hi,
I'm having that "BLOB" error pop up ALOT and it's seriously getting annoying having to use task manager to force close AW2K and then go in and redo the listing. It happens multiple times a day and I've tried backing up/rebuilding database, upgraded my RAM to 4 GB thinking that could be the cause, defragging and pretty much anything else I could think to try, yet it's still happening all the time!!!
Is there anyway you could include an auto-backup feature for the current listing we're working on (like Microsoft Word uses) and even better would be if we could adjust the amount of time between autosaves?
It seems to save some of the information sometimes, but I still have to replace or redo various parts (title, item condition, etc.). Right now I try to go click the "back" button to go to the previous listing when I can think to do it and then go forward again to the current one I'm working on since that seems to save it in case I have to force close, but most of the time I can't remember to do it often enough and plus it's really distracting when trying to focus on writing. When it pops up I can only copy/paste into a text document whatever info is on the page at the time since you can't switch to another screen. That helps a little, but if it's the description part I still have to go in and redo any formatting since all of that is lost.
Surely I'm not the only one having this problem...or am I, lol? Please, please, please consider adding this feature it if it's possible to implement. If anyone knows of any work-arounds or anything else that would help I'd really appreciate it. I'm almost to the point of looking for another program to use, but the thought of learning a new one and restarting everything again is depressing :P
Thanks,
Christopher
