Yes you did make changes I think back like 6 or 7 years ago.
And thank you for that. I only remember cause I use it on a regular basis.
I also made a few changes although I didn't document what I changed from the
original.
One of these days, I'll have to compare my version with the one in the
dUFLP. LOL

Indeed, the old memory isn't what it was and I had forgotten about it. I
haven't actually used it myself but I should have remembered it was
there as I made a small change to it to correct a problem some years ago.

modistru.cc uses the BDE itself to do the heavy lifting so there is no
mess, no bother. :-)
