Q and A - FM patch for XP

[Dmitri Yunov <yudmi@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

There were some off-list questions to me from different people. 
It is a summary of my only personal understanding of the problems that I was
inquired. I may be wrong, of course. Lee and Dov might know better these
topics.

Q. 
Does this remove any bugs if you are only on Windows 2000?  

A. As far as I know this Adobe patch fixed only the bug in FM dialog "Open
document with lost linked graphic files". 

Q. 
I don't need this patch to apply these until I get XP. 

A. Sorry, no, it is not true. 
The FM bug that was fixed with this patch is a cause of FM crash in ANY
Windows platforms - from W95 to W2K AND WinXP. The only difference is that
in WinXP you need to select any dialog buttons for FM crash :-), and under
other Windows you need to click by mouse in the one element of this dialog -
thin horisontal line on the top of the dialog space.

Therefore you may crash in some situations if use this dialog under ANY
Windows system  (from W95 to W2K); it is more better to fix all your copies
of Frame and Frame+SGML anyway even if you don't work in WinXP. 



Here are exact links to patches, that tested.
