]]>I have (possibly) discovered a bug in the routine called when exporting settings from BASE 7.01.1, here goes the story:
The other day I was a victim of my own incompetence (regarding ROE-method of the finisher), in short I managed to call the finisher after one of my own cleanup scripts 
(ref. this post) *embarrassed
Anyhow, this led to me changing my settings for ROE and exporting new custom settings files. What I observed later was that the integration was performed with the old "Custom start ID" in ROE. After some minor investigations I have found that exporting settings, overwriting an old settings file leads to duplicate entries in the settings file (newest settings towards the bottom). Furthermore I have found that the BASE uses the first settings it finds in the file..
I will try to give instructions to replicate this bug:
1. Paste DPs_BASE.ini settings from the bottom of this post into your own DPs_BASE.ini (I don't know if this bug is caused by my exact pattern of settings or if it's more generic, so replicating youre better of using my settings)
2. Start Base, observe that "Custom start ID" for ROE method is set to "1"
3. Export your settings to a different file than DPs_BASE.ini, for example 1.ini
4. Now change your "custom start ID" in BASE to "2" and export the settings saying yes to overwrite the firsty one (1.ini or whatever)
5. Quit BASE, open your custom ini and realize that the file was not overwritten, the new settings was just added at the bottom of the file(!)
This may of course be some kind of feature in the software that I'm not aware of but normally, when I write programs, and they ask to overwrite they do overwrite

I have now confirmed this bug(?) in BASE 7.01.2 also.
(by the way thx for the Mass storage update, will try it this weekend have been waiting for it 
)
