speaking of which, if you click on the "price" column to sort by highest to lowest price... it will place the least digit before more digits. :dunno
IE:
800
4700
2000
1500
1000

Actually, if you're talking about a cooperative with a shared collection, this is exactly the sort of thing that has always been the largest stumbling block. Aside from maybe a shared location the biggest issue is always the allocation of work and use of common resources.

The one thing you got right in there is the "probibly" part (and that's not even right, because it's misspelled ;D )
Frankly, there are lots of people out there that do not need my program. But the statement you make is proven wrong several times: people tend to follow the same path in trying to pinpoint a problem. It's a waste of time if you're going to perform a series of tests somebody else already did, so it's nice if there's a record on that. You can make notes on what parts were swapped out and what tests have been done, which can save you a lot of time if there would be a second malfunction to the same machine. This will of course not be a big issue with somebody who is maintaining his private collection of 3 pinball machines himself, but it will be nice for somebody who is managing 30 machines in 9 different locations and with 3 different repair guys.

That WOULD be an issue if my program were a web based project, but my program runs on a local database, so the only way you can share your info is by emailing me your database file ;)

It's actually sorting like it was a string (text), so low to high on the first character. Normally it's not supposed to sort by clicking on the column title, so I disabled that now.

I couldn"t care less how probibly is spelled..... Three guys taking care of 30 pins on a route, doesnt require a streamlined database. 1 girl/guy
should be able to do them all. It would be almost be a insult to expect less. But supposing you need 3, a notebook, or comment section in the
servce manual should suffice.
