Kirsten, With respect, that is a lot different. I can understand a reluctance to *Upgrade* to a new version where complete new sections of code, or functionality, have been added eg. in V7 there was Mapping, Source Writer, integrated Charting etc. An *Update* is quite different and involves the correction of coding bugs present in the current version, and maybe the improvement in the way in which a function operates. Rarely does this introduce other problems.
