Three questions about the update:
First: Could someone please send a list of all the fixes/changes? If such
a list does not exist, I'd be glad to compile and summarize to the
net.
Second: There was a rumor that the update introduced a new bug - something
about crashing after opening a text file and then saving again
as text only or text with line breaks. Can anyone confirm this?
Are there any other 'new' bugs? Again, will summarize, if necessary.
Third: This one's to the folks at Microsoft:
Would it be possible for you to create an 'updater' program to be
posted to the net and to archives? This method of distributing
bug fixes is extremely convenient and seems to have been fairly
successful for other companies (e.g. Symantec, Berkeley Systems,
etc.). I'm quite certain many Word users on the net will greatly
appreciate this form of technical support. (I'm sure I will!)
Thanks in advance,
-- John
