3.10 05 March 1995
- Fixed to display whole view if a field is moved so that view now fits
in the window.
- Index sometimes not correctly updated when you changed an index
field.

- Added Cycle, Image and External field types.
- Rehashed field resizing code
- Removed bug that was chopping last character off print lines.
- Changed string gadget border to more standard imagery.
- Fixed nasty bugs in Report Groups
. Deleting the first group and adding another immediately would
crash the machine
. Would not allow you to change a Report group to another type. If
you deleted it then added the new one you were caught by the
previous bug - Catch 22.
- Cancelling out of the report requester after adding or deleting the
first report group was causing a crash.
- Fixed Lock error in SaveAs/Reorg - broke it with XFH fix in 3.08.

file name.
