    g0> I was able to find the issue with that logging, thank you!  I am   
    g0> uploading a new build now which will include the fix.   
      
   Sweet! I'll grab it now.   
      
    g0> As far as it not updating the user field when you upgrade the user   
    g0> security level, thats expected behavior.  Older versions would copy the   
    g0> start menu from the security into the user record, but now it just pulls   
    g0> the menu name directly from the security record.

    g0> The reason for the change is because if you wanted to change the start   
    g0> menu for a security level in the past you'd have to then go into each   
    g0> user's record and update their start menu field.  Now you can blank out   
    g0> all of the user's start menu fields and let it pull the menu from the   
    g0> system default or their security profile.  You'd only set the start menu   
    g0> directly on the user's record if you really wanted them to have their   
    g0> own custom start menu.

   Makes perfect sense. There was something else related to this kind of change   
   to. A mass way of updating users security levels? Any way of doing that. I'm   
   getting of topic, but curious.
