These versions were produced from source code altered so that the same source (apart from macros which are in separate directories) can be compiled either using Qmac and linker or by using GWASS and Qlink. The Qmac version is on the Q40 and the GWASS version is on the Q60. Both these seem fairly stable. Oddly enough the program most prone to collapse is QD!! Sometimes it just hangs. RJOB sorts it out and I can continue. However, on earlier compilations of v3.07 I did find that a daughter basic just disappeared suddenly, which was a bit unnerving. The recently compiled versions have so far not shown that trouble. It would be interesting to know what faults of this nature are being experienced by Q40/60 users. Assembling this information could provide a route to a cure. George _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
