I have found that the built-in Find Objects is one of *the* worst parts of the
WPS. I can't understand why it is even there, because if *anybody* on the WPS
programming team had tried to use it, they would've dropped it straight away.
One of the *easiest* ways to bring your system to a totally unusable state can
be done with three left-clicks:
left-click Find Objects,
left-click Save Results check-box
left-click Find button
Go on, try it. I urge *everybody* to try this and see what happens.
