WARNING:I just tested this, and the delete context does, in fact, ignore the max parameter -- so it's definitely a bug. In my test, this code:[delete db=calendar.db&bwcalendarDatedatarq=04/01&rank=off&max=1]should delete only the FIRST occurrence of 04/01 in the database -- but instead, ALL records beginning with 04/01 were deleted.Sincerely, Ken Grome 808-737-6499 WebDNA Solutions mailto:ken@webdna.net http://www.webdna.net
