The following procedure results in the insertion of a blank record before any additional data elements are copied after the first 256 data elements have already been copied:


 * 1) Create a Works Word Processor file with over 256 data elements.
 * 2) Separate each data element with a tab.
 * 3) After 256 data elements, insert a carriage return to delineate one database record.
 * 4) Select Copy from the Edit menu to mark the 256 plus elements for copying.
 * 5) Go into the database using List or Form view.
 * 6) Copy the data beginning at field 1.

= STATUS =

This problem has been corrected in Works version 2.00.
