<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Hi Chipp</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Im not saying it must be a rev app.
But opening MC made tools in terminal services or metaframes</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">where the bitdepth is not 24/32 creates
horrible unpredicable color changes at any time - while this</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">is ok for administrative tools which
only i use, it can't be ok for enterprise users.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">The latest issue i reported on the list
with crashes when reading files when theres a windows API </font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">timeout retrieving the files is another
issue im very concerned with. Bugzilla in the making but a new</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">phase of testing is underway.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I've been using Enterprise MetaCard
since 1999. I refused to update to rev due to the lack of </font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">ntevents reported on faults and crashes.
I do update the engine from rev but i cannot afford to</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">add further risks in my applications
(they are used daily to make critical migrations of banking data)</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">and i see lots of unexpected crashes
at home in the rev IDE which make me skeptical that it's </font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">worth the update. I will update when
i think it's solid enough... But it's still not the case.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">cheers</font>
