No but Bill Brooks wrote to me:

after I inquired why he went back to SP5.  (I have added this to the bug 
database but I have not confirmed - if anyone can/does confirm it please 
let me know.)

So there is at least one thing broken apparently.


>2. Have most of you (members of this forum) upgraded to service pack 6?

I have and I know many others that have - I had assumed most have.  If 
there are more problems with SP6 than SP5 then I have not noticed them and 
certainly I appreciate the fixes.  I certainly do not see more crashes than 
with SP5.
