I'm experiencing problems with dropped characters in text lines. Also, I've noticed the history doesn't seem to log all changes made to text lines. The problem can be duplicated as follows: 1. Open a new portrait blank document and add an anchored frame. (recorded in history) 2. Add a text line inside the anchored frame from the Tools Palette. In the text line, type "1234" (recorded in history). 3. Save the file. (history cleared) 4. Click the cursor after the "4" in the text line and hit a carriage return to create a new text line. (not recorded in history) 5. In the new text line, type "1234567890"(not recorded in history) 6. Save the file. 7. Refresh the screen (cntl l) and the second text line now reads "12346890" (dropped the 5 and 7). Printing the file in steps 5 and 6 also show the 5 and 7 are missing. 8. Add a new text line inside the anchored frame from the Tools Palette. In the text line, type "12345" (recorded in history). 9. Save the file. (history cleared) 10. Click the cursor after the "5" in the text line from step 8 and hit a carriage return to create a new text line. (not recorded in history) 11. In the new text line, type "1234567890"(not recorded in history) 12. Save the file. 13. Refresh the screen and the second text line now reads "12345790" (dropped the 6 and 8). Has anyone else seen this problem (or can duplicate it)? Also, can someone explain why some of the steps above are not recorded in the history. FYI, while trying to find a repeatable sequence to demonstrate this problem, Frame crashed on me. I'm running a trial version of Frame 8, version 8.0p273, with XP Pro, on a fairly new Dell Optiplex 740. Thanks, Jeff Schweiner
