I took the chance and uninstalled my perfectly stable 3.1.9.2 from my
Windows 2000 Pro desktop which I use - well - it's my life. Of course, I
backed it up first.

Install went mostly smooth. It took about a full minute (of refreshing
the desktop) before the option for "DQSD Deskbar" appeared in the
context menu for the task bar. Moving it around and placing it where I
use it was the same. No changes there.

I tested a half dozen of my critical searches. They all worked
perfectly. Even the funky stuff that lives entirely locally (like
"floax", "vbsx" and "jsx"), and searches that post to secure servers, or
use multiple event transactions like the "dq" search I wrote a couple
years ago (and fixed a couple weeks ago).

Then I tried F8 to search my history. Nuttin'. It's not working. I can
scroll through them using up and down arrows, like before, but I
frequently used to use F8 to search the history for entries that matched
the text I had already typed. No luck under 3.2.0a, it just doesn't
work.

What other keyboard accelerators are affected? While I'm going to dearly
miss that ability (until it's reintegrated), that alone is not a
show-stopper for me. It seems stable, reloads MUCH QUICKER and correctly
performs all the other searches and functions I tried. Excellent job.

Remember though, that I'm one of those archaic nutes still using Windows
2000 - so I haven't installed or tested it under XP...yet. I'm off to go
try it out on a spare XP machine in a few minutes, to see if it'll avoid
that security warning. But here, on mine, it works almost perfectly.

Thank you,

Shawn K. Hall
