The update is what caused it, I changed nothing else, plus I was able to
reproduce it by making records with the revision that works, and then
update, which corrupted the records and prevented me from making new ones.
By corrupting I mean that they appeared as gibberish, whereas before the
update they seemed fine (this only happens with greek text).

I made some tests, and it appears this happened somewhere after revision
5097 and 5105. All revisions in between fail to install with this error
message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 7, in <module>
    from dabo.__version__ import version
  File "/home/nameless/programs/dabosrc/dabo/dabo/__init__.py", line 138,

    from dabo.lib.logger import Log

  File "/home/nameless/programs/dabosrc/dabo/dabo/lib/profilehooks.py",
line 106, in <module>
    from profile import Profile
ImportError: No module named profile

So I don't know the exact one that causes the problem.

I tried this with a test cursor, not with actual data. I will browse
through the code in the AppWizard and Editor.py to see how I can output my
data in a report, although it seems somewhat daunting, my first attempt
was unsuccessful.

Thank you
