database problem with invoices to more than one customer

[Rick Copple]

 From your screen shot, it appears you are attempting to enter a new 
customer from the invoice detail screen. If you wish to create a new 
invoice, whether a new customer or the same one, you have to start by 
entering a new invoice. Via the menu, you would go to "Business," 
"Customer," "New Invoice..." All that spot on your screen shot allows is 
for you to edit the details of that customer. But you cannot change the 
customer or start a new invoice through that field.
