It is a bug/deficiency in Minivend 3; it will not pass the same
field twice.
If Orders is a database as well as a text file, a possible workaround
would be:
sf=customer_code
sf=time
sf=Orders:time
If it is an orders database, I have always recommended using SQL for
that if possible. Though it has been surprisingly robust over the years,
MiniVend's DBM database is not the greatest engine for updating
tables. In fact, I originally had it set up to be a read-only thing and
don't even know how I ended up making it writable.
