Usually, the cycle number/date of the database is not visible due to the container on that databases/update page being a bit too narrow for the title/text/descriptor. Normally, it is not an issue as there is only one of each database, but it does allow one to confirm it is the CORRECT database (and USB stick) before starting the somewhat lengthy process of uploading it to the 540.

Can you make that list container a bit wider? There appears to be lots of room, if the list box is slightly shortened.

Alternately, a bit of string manipulation --- you could abbreviate the text there, Cycle = Cy; Data = Dt, etc. Or better still, pull the data date/cycle out of the string, and place it at the first of each line. Or both.

Good idea. Added to the feature bucket (the good kind, not the trash kind).
