Hi list,
I have a script that creates groups on the fly
with the command "group". These groups contain
various flds and imgs.
Can I always assume that the group with the highest
id # is the last one created ?
Thanks,
jbv

AHA!
Well, that explains the "inconsistency" in the syntax.

quicken has/had these very nifty ways of handling date inputs, to make
entry faster.
if you enter a numeral, like 26, it means that date of this month.
similarly, month/date e.g. 5/25 is 5/25 of this year.

"+" to increment the date field
IDs are assigned according to the stack ID which increments by 1 every time an
object is created. So yes, the stack ID is like an auto increment column in
SQL. It assures that no two objects get the same ID, and the last object
created is the highest ID in the stack.
