Hello!

I am working on a university paper where I quote the same books over and over
again. The following problem occured:

When first assembling a bibliographic entry I produced a typo in the information
which shows up in the bibliography. Noticed it after I quoted the book 12 times.
Opened the entry (which was saved in the document, not in the database) and
corrected the typo. Dialog box coming up, asking whether the entry should be
changed at all the other places too. Answered "yes".

Result: Book comes up twice in the bibliography, with typo and without. Turns
out I had to correct it at every occurence by hand, in spite of above mentioned
dialog box.

I am pretty glad I found this after 12 quotes and not after 120, but I would be
very glad if this could be corrected.

The situation is the same in versions 1.1.4 and 1.9.104.

By the way:
When an issue type ist classified as  DEFECT, how is it possible, that it ist
not correctet with the next following version or the next version but one?

Greetings, Claudia
