Hi Gay, ? Surprisingly, FM10 is much more stable than FM9. It does crash from time to time, but not as often as FM9 did. An additional advantage of FM10 is the introduction of the Extendscripts. If you have a good command of Javascript, you will rule! ? HTH, Roman

Frame 11 on horizon? Hello Framers, I use conditional text a lot. ?A LOT. ?Frame 9 seems to crash on a daily, sometimes hourly, basis. Others in my department haven?t experienced this behavior, but don?t use conditional text like I do. The ?.recover? files drive me crazy because I always feel I should compare them to the source .fm file, but even FM warns against using .recover files. And of all the times I laboriously made comparisons, I found exactly once when the source doc was missing something in the .recover file. Anyway, I?m not really writing to vent, more to ask if Frame 10 is any better when it comes to conditional text ? my brief research leads me to believe 10 fixes a lot of the problems in 9 but introduces new ones. So this may be a case of the known devil? There?s a possibility we can upgrade soon, but now I?m wondering if we should wait another year (?) till FM 11. ?Frankly, I lobbied so long and hard to make the move from Word to FM (7.2) but ever since upgrading to 9, I?ve regretted it. Parenthetically, we?re also curious about the output to various versions of online help in 10. Any opinions or experiences you care to share will be received with interest and thanks. ~~Gay ? ? _____________________________________ Gay Alson Senior Technical Writer Epicor Retail www.epicor.com Tel.: (514) 428-2116 Fax: (514) 426-0824 E-mail: galson at epicor.com 2800 Trans Canada Highway, Pointe Claire QC H9R 1T1 ? ? ? ? ________________________________ This e-mail is for the use of the intended recipient(s) only.
