Apparently we are talking about two different things.
You're talking about a complicated application program and I'm talking about a database consisting of files with records of fields of data.
I only have to know the record structure to change a field..
And this is exactly why I know you’re not qualified to know what’s a simple fix and what isn’t. It’s not a simple record change. That record change can potentially affect multiple things. This is what I kept telling my developers. They assumed the same thing you did and every time, something broke because it didn’t occur to them that that something was affected by their simple change. I’m not sure what kind of systems you worked with, but if you think this is a simple record fix, then it wasn’t overly complicated. Criticize them for their site being buggy, but don’t act like you know more then you do.
Writing the script to make the change is simple. Running it is simple. Anticipating everything that will be affected, not so simple.
