i_love_rocks,
Sorry for being a pedant. Its just a bug-bear of mine.
Interesting to hear that some recording systems don't record cuts within features. This must shorten the presumed duration of a site or present problems when encountering, for instance, Bronze Age pottery in a lower fill which is partially re-cut and filled with a material that contains Roman pottery. How does this work with post-holes cut into backfilled ditches when the nature of the feature has changed dramatically?
