My attempts to use table fields in Rev 2.7/Windows have been slightly less 
frustrating than with Rev 2.6.1, but are hardly satisfactory. Could others 
comment on their experiences with table fields? I guess I'm hoping that I have 
a local problem.

With very large table fields, hundreds or thousands of rows, dozens of columns, 
clicking on cells used to cause the whole field to go blank. That seems less 
likely now, but Rev 2.7/Windows can hang for 30 seconds at a time, and although 
it usually recovers, it still might lose the whole field. Or I might give up 
and kill the application. It's hard to imagine that this control passed stress 
testing before this release.

I am thrilled to have a multiplatform development environment, but unstable 
core features are a huge barrier to broader adoption. Because of bugs like 
this, I never suggest that my colleagues use Rev unless they are old Hypercard 
fans. I hope that changes soon.
