Ordering of objects doesn't work because objects don't have value for getPositionInCourse

[jon]

Bug was reported by Notre Dame in the following email.

Hi David,

We have a course, HIST 30626 (Medicine and Public Health in American History) that's close to publication. I'd like to re-order the Course Contents, but am unable to do so by clicking on the up/down arrows in the order column. (It spends time acting like it's doing something, then ends without having changed anything.) Any suggestions?

Thanks,

The reason for this behavior is that the objects were created without a getPositionInCourse value. Need to determine how these objects were created and fix so that they get this value when created.
