Bug Description
There are ways (many) where the 00X fields of a record may be saved without trailing spaces to pad out the correct length. This causes problems for the fixed field editor grid, which uses the substring() method to read and stitch together the data in the fixed fields. Specifically, if trailing space is truncated, both read and insertion can fail in annoying ways.
To fix this, we should always pad out the 00X fields to their appropriate lengths before reading or modifying them.
Branch coming soon ... WATCH THIS SPACE!
