BUT IT WILL NOT UPDATE MY VERSION!!! I ordered version 3.01 last year and was sent "3.01br" which is not updateable. WHY can't the foreign versions of these programs have a common 'core' program which is the one that is updated? WHAT crappy differences are there between "3.01" and "3.01br" and why do Americans assume that Australians will want to use the BRITISH version? ************************************************************************* Phil Ryan * No matter where DSTO Cadet Research Student * you go...

When I updated my version 3.01 to 3.05, everything seemed fine. But when I ran Nisus, I had continual problems (system bombs when I would make selections of text). I tried all sorts of things. Called Nisus and they suggested all sorts of things. Finally, it dawned on me that I should try running the updater again. Sure enough, this fixed the problem. So, the moral is: if you're having problems with Nisus after updating, try running the updater all over again. Could save you a bunch of grief. Sherman Wilcox
