freechain error

[Dennis Malen]

Ken,

I have not contacted FP support. I wouldn't know where to start with them. 
I'm happy that it's fixed. I hope.

As far as my lookup, I have used it quite often with no problems with the -. 
Every time someone presses <esc> <esc> it looks up in the current file for a 
duplicate check number. A message comes up if there is a match. Pretty 
simple. If there is a match it goes to "restart". Perhaps when I added 
additional lookups with named files that the problem occurred. As I 
indicated before it seems to work with using the name of the file as opposed 
to the "-".
