Rick I've got to say I'm dismayed by the "outrage". I've held off going to SP2 because so much ado was made of it's problems. Well I just upgraded to it and released a new build of my Visual MaxFrame Professional based application with the only glitch being a lack of tooltips in the grid headers. That is a feature none of the users care about.
