[comp.sys.amiga] Problems with MaxiPlan 500

chris@AUSTIN.LOCKHEED.COM (Chris Wood) (10/03/88)

 have been experiencing several niggling bugs with Maxiplan 500, and
one major one.  Has anyone out there experienced these bugs?  Are they fixed in Maxiplan +?  

1. Every time I save a worksheet, the stupid system prepends Workbench 1.2: 
to the file name.  I have to go into INFO and fix it.  I will admit that I
did not follow the recommended procedure of booting off of their disk.  I
wanted to use my own (with Dmouse, etc.)

2. Column names screw up badly when I try to put in columns of width one 
(to put in vertical lines-- pretty) and the coulumn name is after Z, that
is, double letter. I have to increase the width to 3 to get it to work.

3. BIG BUG: The system freezes solid in the middle of printing my 
spreadsheet.  The printer works fine for all of my other software.
The system usually freezes in the middle of printing the column headers
on the second or third page.  Nothing works. The keyboard and mouse are
both frozen.  C-A-A causes a reboot, but the GURU has to complain first.
After the obligatory left mouse click, the system reboots fine.  
NOTE:  The symptoms are the same even if I boot off of the supplied
system boot disk.
