[LON-CAPA-admin] scantron grading problem

I'm grading a scantron file and when I get a record that is flagged
for an improper ID, I am unable to select the proper user to override
the error. I click on "Select User", select the correct user, then
click "Continue -> using corrected info" and nothing happens...the
username disappears from the field before the "@" and it just stays
on the same error screen.
Any suggestions?
Don't know how this affects things, but at NDSU 98% of our students
have 6 digit IDs, the other 2% (the ones getting flagged) have 5
digit IDs. I've uploaded their IDs properly, but when it comes to
reading the scantron file LON-CAPA can't seem to adjust to the 5-
digit. It identifies the ID on the form correctly...I've tried
adjusting the 5-digit number within the ID field on the scantron data
file so that it starts with a zero (i.e. 012345), tried it with the 5-
digit number and leaving a blank in the beginning (i.e. _12345) and
leaving the blank at the end (i.e. 12345_) but all to no avail. I
didn't have a problem with this last semester...it seemed the fix
then was to have a leading 0 (i.e. 012345).
