So you refuse to acknowledge that the developers may have blundered? You caved in to a few people who just couldn't get a handle on one of the most useful features in the product. Remember, developers and tech support almost never hear from the ones who find the features useful and working well for them. It seems to me that instead of greasing the squeaky wheel you decided to remove it.

If the programmers leave it alone it's ok for me ; ) (the feature isn't part of legacy anymore). There were good reasons to remove it from the program and there were lot of discussions before it was removed (in the LUG and in the Legacy Test group). So no need to do this discussion over and over again. Evert 2011/6/9 Tim Rosenlof <[email protected]>: > Ditto ! I also agree. Leave it alone, and I look forward to the next > features.
