RE: Workaround for bug in deleting filter strings.

Kelly,
        I was able to recreate your problem and I have another way to work
with the filter strings.  Right click the filter name, select properties.
On the properties window select "filter strings" and delete the filter
strings as you are expecting to.  I do not understand why there is a
difference but I can delete any filter I want and not run into the problem
in your step #3. 

Thank you,

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Workaround for bug in deleting filter strings.

Both of our installations of WDSC 5.1.2 have a bug deleting filter strings
from member filters. 

The problem:
1. Right-click on a member filter and select Change. (Brings up Change
Member Filter dialogue screen.)
2. Right-click on a filter screen and select Delete. (Filter string
disappears from the list of filter strings.)
3. The OK button is now inactive (grayed out). The user is forced  to choose
Cancel to close the Change
    Member Filter dialogue, and the filter string is not deleted.

The workaround:
4. Do steps 1-3 above. Notice WDSCi has checked the Source members box.  
5. Uncheck the Source members box. (This makes the Revert button active.)
6. Click the Revert button. (This makes the OK button active again.)
7. Click the OK button to close the Change Member Filter dialogue. (The
change is now saved.)

Do I need to report this bug somewhere besides this list to have IBM fix it?

Thanks,
Kelly
