You may think you are updating data for one record when you actually scrolled one or two places too far and are now in the next record. Totally agree. I think a compromise of named parsers with a table/template line per line makes a lot more sense. I think (Michael told me) that they don't have to be on separate lines, it's just desirable. Either way works.
