Had a call from a doctor who recently switched medical billers. Seems her new 
biller used software that did not display all of the fields in the 
caret-delimited text files ("iPlexus") that were sent as batched bills. It took 
just a few hours (and would have taken some on the list here far less time) to 
whip up a one-trick-pony application to pull the bills that contained data in 
those missing fields, format and display, and enable printing of the data. 

Since I hadn't used LiveCode in a while, I initially made the mistake that I'm 
sure I've made before: confusing the data to be incremented with the counters 
that control the looping. Fortunately, the LC editor let me know immediately by 
indicating that the types on each side of the operand did not match (can't add 
a number to a variable holding a string!).

Anyway, it's another instance of LC being used to quickly provide a solution.
