First of all let me remind you what is said on the 2.0beta candidate page: "The software is not recommended for production deployment at this stage. There are no guarantees. For production, use 1.1.4." Since you are experimenting, have you tried upgrading your copy of the JRE to something current? I think 1.5 is available and, IMMSMC, Base prefers this version. You can go to http://www.java.com/ for this. Now as to entering an issue, please try again. You have done the search and, I gather, encountered nothing similar to what you are trying to report; so here are the steps you take: 1. Login 2. Click on File issue in the leftmost panel 3. Click the proceed link as the research is done 4. Click the Database Access link 5. From there it is relatively easy to fill in the blanks and use the dropdowns. Please keep us posted by letting us know the issue number. -- PLEASE KEEP MESSAGES ON THE LIST.
