Data entered sometimes disappears if several fields filled before saving

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. I've created various relationships and am entering the terminology for 
particular dyads. In this case the father is Ego and am entering the terms for 
his children. He has several children, so I enter the term for 'father' in the 
'Alter calls Ego' line for all the children.
2. I then return to the first child to enter the 'Ego calls Alter' reference 
term - daughter for example - only to find that the 'fahter' terms I've entered 
have disappeared for this and some of the other dyads (but not all?). So I have 
to re-enter them where... the only way to stop the terms disappearing from 
certain dyads is to save as soon as I've entered the terms before moving on to 
another dyad.
3. As I'm working with vernacular data, I often (try and) save time by using 
the copy and paste facility and entering the same term for several different 
relationships. 

I think that this has happened for other fields too, such as notes made about 
clans, etc. or a date entered.

Actually, I'd noticed this happen a few times with the original version 
received in Nairobi, but forgot about it...

Some more observations after further experimentation:

about 90% of the time any information added to a dyad is lost if I switch dyads 
without saving.

Using ctrl S (or cmd s) does not work. If I do this, then switch dyads, the 
newly entered data is lost.

The only way to make sure new data is not lost is to go to File in the menu bar 
then save this way.

Tentative fix sent to Sharon for testing.

I have replaced the silkin.jar file with the new one you sent and this seems to 
have resolved the problem!
