I know that it isn't just Codecharge that suffers, because a long form on a webpage or even just a long webpage will sometimes do the same, but Codecharge is absolutely the worst culprit for displaying incorrectly once the amount of fields in a form is enough that you need to scroll.

All the text boxes and listboxes corrupt and it's impossible to refresh it. Switching between forms just makes it worse, with fields from one being overlayed over another.

So I've just come to a grinding halt on the website I was creating because I can no longer edit it in Codecharge. Shame. An otherwise useful bit of software that's saved me days of dev work in the past.

The only other criticism is that tedious and time comsuming interface for building a form anyway, and the fact that it apparently reorders your fields alphabetically when it creates a page. So you sit there for an hour and a half pressing little up and down arrows and waiting for the page to refresh so you can get the fields back in their original order.

Ever heard of drag n drop?

Anyway, now going to finish my site in ASPMaker since I can't use Codecharge now.

Why wouldn't you use CC Studio instead?

Oh well,
It is a shame, and I empithise. God forbid you should write your own code. If cpdecharge is such a revolting product as you say, then I would imagine that the thousands of people using it must be like... nuts or something. I mean, it couldn't be your computer, lack of skill, browser, or plain inability to deal with a trial version could it? Na... Go use asp maker. But with your attitude, it probably won't be much better.

It works fine for me. Just upgrade your computer.

The problem you are experiencing is probably not codecharge at all but rather with your PC. If you have limited memory in you PC it will load up with page storage and program reserves so there is no memory left to paint new pages. Closing programs and pages does not help because the memory used to store the old paints is often not released when a page or program is closed. A reboot is usually the only way to free up the reserved memory. CC and CCS works best with a minimum of 256 meg of memory. You can get by with less but many of the newer programming utilities like CC, CCS, JBUILDER and other enterprise type IDEs are memory intensive because of all the juggling they do.
