I've watched the threads with interest, Nancy, and did the 30-day eval last spring. I know there are a few aggravations, but as soon as we can spring for TCS 2 here, I'm going to FM 9 and the rest and not looking back. All in all, life will be easier and more productive. Jim -Original

You're going to find it interesting locating a copy of Frame 8. It's doable but nobody sells it. There is a post on the Adobe Frame forum, I think, that has a solution where you get a volume license and use the license key to enable the Frame 8 features. I use Frame 7 and Frame 8 but not Frame 9
