Has anyone else worked with the "Maintain Offices Served" function?
I've observed strange behavior that I believe is telling me I need to re-index. Here's the sequence:
* Membership -> Activities and Skills -> Maintain Offices Served
* In the "Maintain Offices Served" dialog, L(ocate) a member (any member will do), then click <Add>.
* In the Office Details subdialog, click the Search (magnifying glass) button beside "Skill:" to open the Locate list.
Everywhere else in PC+, when I open this type of list and double-click on an item, the list closes and the item I double-clicked is entered in the subject field (in this case, "Skill").
While entering a bunch of church office data this evening, however, I found that double-clicking on a selection in this list would populate the subject field with some other number!
Mind you, I had revised our activities/skills structure a day ago, and haven't reindexed since. Also, when I try this same sequence on my "shadow" installation, the double-click gives exactly what I expect. The "shadow" copy runs on my laptop; I back up the PC+ data onto a USB memory stick at the church, then restore this backup onto my laptop . . . recall that PC+ forces a reindex operation on restoring from a backup.
Has anyone else worked with maintaining offices? If so, have you seen any strange behavior on selecting from the list?
