¡_YIKES_! If Ken was informed correctly, below - and I _really_ hope he was _not_ - then that effectively rings the death knell of FrameMaker's use by my employer. It was in only the last month that I got upgraded to FrameMaker 11, but I'm happy to report that I haven't encountered this type of problem. To conform to _corporate_requirements_ we have FrameMaker installed on our C:\ drives, but the files we produce and edit are on a server, so we work with them across our local area network and, sometimes, the wide-area network. Dov, if you see this, will you please confirm, modify, or refute the information Ken posted below? ¡Thanks! Dave Stamm Information Engineer General Dynamics C4 Systems, Inc.

I can understand network-based locations causing issues, but I have _never_ seen a problem where an executable (FrameMaker or otherwise!) is on one drive and the "data" files are on a separate drive _on the *same* system_. In fact, I do this right now - my C drive is the usual location for all executables (FrameMaker, Office, compilers, etc.) and my E drive contains all my other files (including the books and files I work on). And, I do not have any problems with this setup whatsoever. I am surprised that Adobe thinks that this would be a problem in any way! If really accurate, this would be a strange, and completely unacceptable, artificial constraint. Z
