Re: Fudging outlines

The disclaimer is very important, as the script is missing a second update to
exchange the hint counts between
the two outlines. If you don't do this, a subsequent export/import of the
outlines loses any outlines where
the hint count doesn't match the
number of rows in ol$hints.

I've got a couple of articles on my
website (also published on dbazine)
which expand the issues of faking
outlines into place.
