But wouldn't it be nice if more vendors acknowledged bug reports? I have sometimes had useful "yes, it is an error, this is the problem and here is a workaround" messages, but more often, the report drops into a black hole and I never hear again. Not exactly encouraging when I might have spent hours distilling the problem down to a simple example. Would any vendors here like to comment? Paul Spencer
