Default Re: Yet another M02?,03,04 bug still in M05

I have opened this as a case with ms every year and its never been fixed.
Last year it messed up so bat it caused my budget to say I made 4 x my
salary. My main problem is with the bills that i have already gotten rid of
and now cant go back and fix.

Default Yet another M02?,03,04 bug still in M05

Edit the date (maybe other things, but date is how I saw this) of the last
occurrence in a scheduled transaction series with one remaining. Click OK.
Scheduled transaction DISAPPEARS into the ozone.

The M04 "Step-By-Step Re-creation Scenario" (hopefully Russ P-J is still
lurking):

1) File|New (select a name that makes you happy).
2) Skip the setup assistant.
3) Account List, Setup Accounts, Add a new account. Not held at...,
Checking, Checking, 0 beginning balance.
4) Bills & Deposits, New Bill. Pay to: "why do I need to fill this in?"
Don't add to Payees. Pay from Checking. Next payment: today. Write check.
Monthly. $10. Category: Food:Groceries. Series will end in 3 remaining
transactions. Click OK.
5) Enter in Register. Record Payment.
6) Enter in Register. Record Payment.
7) Edit single bill occurrence. Change Payment date to add a day. Click OK.

So, where'd it go????????????????????????????????

I'm assuming the re-creation scenario in M05 is similar. I tested it with a
live data file and got the same result. I didn't bother re-creating in M05.

This is kinda like the "Enter a Print transaction in register, change date,
record payment, date change is ignored" bug. Been around for a long time.
Still there. Sometimes I think they leave more bugs than they actually fix.
But they worried XXXXing out account numbers when they were one click away.
Go figure.
