Mike,

FPD 2.0 has a bug that only appears on faster machines : the function (sys(I don't know by heart) that generates unique filenames, actually generates duplicate names and I don't remeber if this was a problem at runtime but developing was a pain before I understood what was happening the time I used v2.0 because I kept loosing screens and reports (didn't save correctly) ...
