Fatal error

Yesterday I came across the fatal error that would prevent me to access databases from the console. I've started calling tech support and figured out that input stream pops up with invisible character(s) that need to be cleared after an input of Data Base ID before pressing an Enter key.

It was invisible bug -- a Ghost In The Machine.

Not trying to explain anything to you, I thought it humorous that you posted a thread about a DB error, that's all!  

I too worked in IT for many decades, now retired.  I applaud you for 30 yrs, I know how difficult it can be.

First thing I programmed was on a PDP-11 by hand in binary.  Long time ago.

Regards,

Is this still the Audiogon forum?  Thought I'd died and gone to PC Mag hell for a minute or two.

Can someone please explain to me in very simple terms just what the heck this thread is about? I thought I was reading the Voynich manuscript!

None except @fuzztone got that what Ghost In The Machine is, but okay to go on. No worries.
