Within the Taxon explorer it is not possible to add Taxa like "Available name" 
to the subspecies Rank. It just works down to species rank.

So it is not possible yet to add Type information at subspecies level.

When I add an available name using Biolink 2.5 and reopen it in version 3.0 it 
appears as an available subspecies name as it should.

In RDE I added an identification using Myrmecia cephalotes.  However, using the 
ellipsis box and Select a taxon window as soon as I enter past Myrmecia I get 
nothing.  Same thing happens with Taxon Explorer Find.  It looks like the 
stored procedure is only returning epithet (which contains either genus or 
available name, but not currently valid name) and not BiotaFullName (which 
contains the currently valid name).

Looks like you can only use % as a wildcard in Material Explorer Find.  Should 
be able to use * as well

Can't scroll up when doing a Drag and Drop within Taxon and Material Explorers

Open Taxon Explorer
Search for a name that is a changed combination (author is in parentheses)
Right-click and Edit Name

Changed Combination checkbox should be selected but isn't.

In fact, can't remove it when it's present or add it when it's absent.

Please use labels and text to provide additional information.

When the identification of a piece of material is changed the user is prompted 
if they wish to record a history of the id change. The default should be no, 
and there should be a check box that says "Do not ask me this again".

When I hover mouse over Taxa like Famyly, Genus, Species or subspecies etc. a 
"Tool Tip" occurs with data on its ancestry. 

Unfortunateyy if there is an incertae sedis or unplaces valid Taxon an error 
message pops up. See attached screenshot. This just happens with unranked valid 
and incertae sedis Taxa.

If I can't find an existing site in Material Explorer I normally open an empty 
RDE and do an entirely new record.  Need to add Open RDE or something similar 
to a menus someplace.

When entering Lat/Long I click in the first field and then tab across to the 
remaining fields, typing in numbers as I go.  Currently this leaves 0 as the 
first character in each field.  Need to select the entire contents when  field 
gets the focus so I can type over the top of it.

Run the attached query (after importing Larvae)

In ANIC database, Material Explorer, search for Danum Valley. Select first 
entry (Danum Valley, nature trail) then run Taxa for Site report.  Get "Unable 
to cast object of type 'System.DBNull' to type 'System.String'." error message.

instead of Ok Cancel, should use the verb to be unambiguous

I have 31d13'34.6"S 121d40'48.9"E but when the decimal seconds are entered they 
are dropped and only degrees and minutes are save (apparently).

Add a new species using "species Author, 2011".  Species and year appear but 
author name dropped. Confirm using Edit Name off right-click menu.

Can't open an output file in the XML Export option (from Taxon Explorer) as it 
says "File not found" and won't proceed.  You can type a file name in the box, 
just can't use the Open dialog box.

Find In Contents was dropped when we dropped the Find tab but should be added 
back.

The only way to enter a taxon name in RDE is to use the ... button and select 
it from the Explorer. Can we type or paste in a name?

If you look at the properties of the shortcut on the Start menu after 
installing BioLink the value for "Start in:" is 
"C:\Users\LetMeIn\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start 
Menu\Programs\BioLink".  When I start BL using this shortcut it starts but none 
of the plug-ins are active and there is a runtime error on exit.  If I start BL 
from C:\Users\LetMeIn\AppData\Local\BioLink everything is fine.  And if I 
create a shortcut using 
C:\Users\LetMeIn\AppData\Local\BioLink\BioLinkApplication.exe everything is 
fine.

When I try to generat the Check List report I get the following error message:

An error occurred whilst running report 'Checklist report: Animalia '
Das Objekt des Typs "System.DBNull" kann nicht in Typ "System.String" 
umgewandelt werden.

Open Taxon Explorer
Search for a name
Select name, right-click and Rename .... and then Return
Now what????

Move to All Taxa tab.  OK, there's the Save changes button.
Click Save changes but nothing happens.  Oops.

I'd be happy to disable Rename when on the Find tab as you can use Edit Name to 
do the same thing.

I would assume the same problem occurs on the Favorites but I haven't looked.

If one merges two taxa (synonymize) it woul be great if one can select that one 
of the taxa becomes an available name in the synonymy of the species etc. 

So far as I realize only the associated specimen change their names.

When I try to add a new species to a genus in the Taxon Explorer I get an error 
message.  Also, I can only add new species to the Contents tab, not the Find 
tab.  Not a show-stopper, but it means I have to Find in Contents before I can 
add a new species (because I Find the genus as the first step).

Need to add Map to the Reports menu for the Taxon Explorer

Rob found the following when using the ANIC database:

On Material Explorer; Templates; Material Templates; right mouse click on 
32-023 Nylanderia Emery,1906; choose Edit details and it came up with a huge 
error message thingy with Exception written in the top left corner. Now every 
other thing I try to open, ie a rapid data entry, comes up with the same 
Exception error.

RDE fails when opened from main menu (Tools -> RDE)

XML I/O 

When adding a new trait the text <New Trait Value> is entered and focus stays 
on the Add Trait button.  Better to put the focus on the text box and select 
the entire contents.  That way you can start typing rather than having to 
click, select and then start typing.

The attached spreadsheet tosses errors.

On the Discard Changes dialog, how about changing Yes to Save and No to 
Discard?  And redoing the prompt to "You have unsaved changes.  Do you want to 
save or discard these changes?"
