 Hi all,

 I've come across a problem with the field calculator.  I'm using QGIS
 1.4.0.39 via OSGEO4W on an XP box.  Here's the issue:

 When using field calculator to "Only Update Selected Features," all
 unselected features (incorrectly) get a value filled.  For example, if I
 create a new field, and set it equal to an existing field, the selected
 features get updated properly. However, all other features get the value
 of
 the first selected feature.
