No! Don't renumber my BookIDs!

[mhollyts]

I do not understand why you would make us reprint our books! You need to change the way things are numbered, thats fine. Why don't you use the next Book ID number as your starting point and number from there up.

The next Book ID is 693 making you song ID's 69301 - 69315. Then the next Song Number in the new system would be 69300 and number up from there. This would allow for the current books to continue to work and no heartache after the upgrade. It is not easy/cheap to print all new books.

If you are going to change the print can we add a option to have single column output or dual column output like it is now for the song book as well.

Howdy,

I am a little confused....Can I just leave off at the last song in my books, for example,.....12043........the next number under the NEW way of doing the book numbering would be 12044? then 12045,46,47...etc.???

Or will the upgrade cause my numbers to change and then I will have to reprint my books.....

I too have just reprinted my song books! Having to reprint again is UNACCEPTABLE! Since everyone that has used Hoster since it came out is using the original numbering system, let the people who want to use mp3 or zip files jump thru the some hoops to comply to whats out there already or use a seperate numbering sysytem for that stuff. No NASA people working here I see!

I can't believe this is being done to us. To me it take time and money. I've already had a dealing in the database first name first last name second, now this. I have defended MTU when others thought I was crazy. Seems like many of us will not upgrade until it's time to redo our books. It might even drive others away. Everyone, and I mean everyone exspects DK 1 thru 99 to be first. I've already fought that battle and lost. Wow what a bomb this is. To exspect us to redo our books. Many of our customers have little pads with number written down of songs they sing. I even save my customers slips. I am very dissapointed in this latest upgrade. I've spent a lot of money buying not only hoster but the shuttle from MTU so i would have no problems. Big problems, I had to send the whole unit back at my exspence. I did it. Still stood by you guys. But this is really bad. I've waited for this upgrade now it's no use to me. I can't see doin my books right now and I usually do mine once a year. Like I said I believe this is bad not giving us a choice.

Will the first release of the upgrade require renumbering or is this to be another release?
