Description Paul Harouff 2003-03-01 23:16:38 UTC 
Would you add an enhancement to automatically save all data when you close a register? This would help prevent losing hours of data when the program crashes because you forgot to manually save. I think most people assume that when you close a register the data you typed in is there permanently. The reality is nothing is saved until you complete exit the entire program or manually choose to save from the menu.

I'm generalizing this RFE into 'autosave'.

I cast my vote in favour of this enhancement.
I do not want to loose data again.
