Use gen-ptt to report the problem.  From Ron's description, it may be that
there is a user interface design defect rather than an issue of the tool
not working as designed. Either way, we have problems with users not getting
what they want intended into our product.

Subj: 	re: data on bsubmit problem

Tim, please use the supported mechanism for reporting bugs in ODE, rather
than sending mail to individuals or to the project team.

All ode users are capable of submitting bug reports, and should, if there
are any problems in the tools.  

From within your sandbox workon session which had the problem, type the
command:
	gen-ptt

This will, the first time, prompt you for personal data which is stored for
future reference.  It will then prompt you on the component you're reporting
(ode) and the particular area (bsubmit).  It will then gather information 
from your sandbox, and then put you in your editor to complete the form.

Please include the 1-line abstract (required), and as much information
about the problem and how to reproduce it, if possible, as you can
provide in the appropriate sections of the form.  After you exit the
editor, you'll be prompted to mail or exit.  If your machine can send
mail, take that (default) option, else exit and copy the ptt_temp file
to another system and mail it to decwet::ptt_ode with subject "problem
submission"

Thanks for your help...		-josh

Several people have reported a problem with bsubmit.  We need the ode team to
tell us how they want to work this.  Do you want a qar entered?  In what
database?

thanks,
sarah

This happened to me also.  For the Streams submit we were basicly
doing a replace since we had already merged our files the day before.
At the bmerge prompt for edit, "rco" was being entered to overwrite
what was currently in the pool.  But on one occasion a file showed
up as requiring merge action but instead of asking the bmerge edit
question it gave the bmerge "ok" prompt.  Since muliple files were
being submitted at once and the bmerge "ok" prompt does not contain
the file name ... i mistakenly thought it was prompting again for
the same file that i already had responded "ok" to.  Once this file
was submitted it showed up as no merge conflicts to a subsequent
submit.
