******    message to minivend-users from "William Rothbauer" <madpages@madpages.com>     ******

I've been trying to implement the new database functions with 3.12beta1.  I
export the database after I attempt the update and pull the value from the
database, but no change occurs.  I've tried [tag flag write] in a couple of
different ways, but it doesn't seem to help.

Has anyone implemented a working version with these new functions?
