As far as I know, no-one has experienced a problem with the latest update. I would suggest if you backed up your data-base, which is the BEST WAY to protect your data. If any problem occur in an update, Legacy will fix it ASAP. Having several back-ups is much better approach to good security. Every time I modify my data-base T back it up.

Others are welcome to jump on the newer bandwagons, but I'm standing pat--probably for a good long while.

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.
