1010 -
101001 - Follow up ref SDS 8 3192, ref SDS 7 4880.
101002 -
101003 - Changed the code to remove References from SDS records published as
101004 - Web pages.  Eliminated links from Contacts to the SDS contact data
101005 - base.  Unplugged code that formatted Reference field.  Added code to
101006 - remove References.  Reducing the amount of code improves performance
101007 - by taking less memory.
101008 -
101009 - Developed idea for custom flagging citations so they cannot be
101010 - accessed in a Web page. ref SDS 0 0903

1014 -
101401 - Remove References from SDS Web Pages
101402 -
101403 - I think References can be removed from SDS records as part of Web
101404 - pages.  The links do not use them.  They add to the size of the record
101405 - that has to be transmitted and stored on the Web server. Users either
101406 - ignore them or are intimidated by them.
101407 -
101408 - References could be a clue to the SDS data structure that would enable
101409 - others to reverse engineer the SDS system of information organization.
101410 - ..
101411 - We can remove References from a record after citations have been
101412 - entered.
101413 -
101414 -
101415 -  ..
101416 - Avoid Converting Flagged Citations to Web Links
101417 -
101418 - We should be able to do this.
101419 -
101420 - We just have to upgrade the code in macro 985 so it can recognize a
101421 - lower case letter to substitute for upper case.
101422 -
101423 - We can then use a lower case on a link we want to suppress, and the
101424 - 070405 code will jump it because it only reads upper case.
101425 -
101426 -     [On 980324 did this. ref SDS 10 2386]

101801 - Saved current 0704050 in 0704060 in case we want a second format that
101802 - can be called from the SDS menu.

160903 -
160904 - Line 1130, ref OF 1 5605, -label LHdr, unplug the process of linking
160905 - SDS Contacts to the SDS contact records.  At this time we will not put
160906 - these on the system.
160907 -
160908 - This is a security and privacy issue, because these records have home
160909 - phones, cellular addresses, and other information about people and
160910 - organizations that often needs to be private.
160911 -
160912 - On 971205 suppressed personal and cell phones from Contacts in SDS
