WriteNow Bug

Earlier today I posted a request for others who
had seen the bug in which WriteNow sometimes
doesn't properly create a file, leaving
Untitled-1 in the folder for a few minutes.
A T/Maker tech person first told me he had
never heard of that happening before.

In a second conversation with T/Maker, we
found a miscommunication (their tech person
thought I meant that the file name didn't
change while I was still in WriteNow). Once
we were on the same wavelength, he acknowledged
that there were many similar reports and that
the best way to correct the problem (still a
nuisance) is to close and then reopen the
folder the file is in.

So, in the slight chance that someone reads
this followup before responding to the previous
call, no need to send Email or otherwise respond.
