This is not a solution. If I did not already know that it should be FO/A it 
would not help AT ALL.
The idea is to have the computer tell me if it is a new multiplier or not. 
Doing this means I already know.

&gt; &gt; When you enter FO/HG9B, it will be an ambiguous entry and you

&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Please, sir, now that I have achieved having this option before me
on the<br>

&gt; What&nbsp; the *(%$ is the &quot;C&quot; column in the Log Entry
