[2.1 RC] Keyboard bugs still there

Hi,
Unfortunately, the "dead key" keyboard bug that has been reported so many
times here, elsewhere and through bug reports sent to the Adobe technical
support is still there. We have never heard anyone from Adobe giving
feedback about these reports, so I guess they are unable to fix. But for
sure, they can't ignore it.
Reminder: http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b582d4/2
Also, the Alt-Tab bug is also still there. Reminder:
http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b6153a
I guess we'll have to wait until version LR 10 to get these bugs fixed.
Patrick

Regarding Alt+Tab, for a long time I had seen it then not seen it the same session, but for a long time could not figure out why one minute it worked fine and the next it didn't. Eventually, I discovered that hitting Tab twice after launching Lightroom got its brain into gear. Thereafter Alt+Tab seemed to work correctly. I'll resubmit the info and hope for a fix.
As for your Dead key issue - no idea.

Experiencing major crashes, bugs still there

The last update was a giant step forward, I'm enjoying working with the new SG version (CC 7.0.1 x51).
But, I noticed the problems with CMD+Z (undo) are still there: sometimes works, sometimes stucks on "optimizing timeline", sometimes the thumbnails in the timeline are displayed, a lot of times my pointer disappears and I have to restart SG.
I'm afraid to press cmd+z now!
I'm doing my first client work with the new version, will report eventual bugs or problems.

Thanks Dennis, sorry I don't mean crashes. I completed the work yesterday and the main issues I encountered are with cmd+z (undo). When pressing cmd+z I got these effects (each time different):
1) The old problem of thumbnails, the bar came out and the "optimizing timeline" progress bar is shown.
2) "Optimizing timeline" progress bar is shown, when at 100%, the preview switches to "2 up" automatically with the same frame I actually was on in timeline in both panels.
3) Sometimes after the issues above, the mouse pointer disappears, I have to force quit and restart SG.
I am on a macbookpro (mid 2010) osx 10.8.4, Speedgrade CC updated to latest version.
Will also file a bug report via your link.
I finished the work smoothly and rendered a master, but I will open a new thread with some requests regarding the workflow and some features (missing or hidden!). Thanks
Andy

Auto Import bug still there

The Import pane in Aperture 3 will open automatically every time the system sees a volume that could have pictures on it. This should only be a controlled option as I do not want this pane open every time I connect an iPhone, jiggle the cable on my scanner, use my multifunction printer or mount any other cards or devices. The pane also scans the new device to try to make previews of its content and it takes a while to get rid of it. I was expecting version 3.1 to address this very Microsoftish behaviour ("the assistant WILL do it for you!") but was disappointed again. I prefer to import my images on my own terms and this window popping up when I am working on an image and trying to concentrate is really annoying. Is there a way to hack Aperture to actually get rid of the whole functionality since Apple will not provide me with a simple "off" checkbox?

CorkyO2 wrote:
I would check Image Capture settings as well.
With your iPhone connected, launch Image Capture and select the iPhone in the left pane and then set the preferences to 'No application' (or similar).
I had the same issue some time ago and found that even though Aperture was set to 'No Application' under 'When a camera is connected' settings, it would still launch when connecting my iPhone if images were on it.
Hope this helps.
I'll try that, but as robogobo said, aren't the connection settings in Image Capture, iPhoto, and Aperture supposed to mirror each other? i.e., change the setting in one and it changes in all of them?
Thinking about this further, I've remembered what the really serious issue with this is. I have iTunes set to automatically start and synch whenever I connect my iPhone or iPad, but if Aperture is already running then the Import pane opens resulting in Aperture and iTunes fighting over the device. The result is that iTunes starts syncing, then Aperture tries to grab the device, iTunes loses control and throws up an error, the iPhone/iPad beeps repeatedly, and the whole proces continues, seemingly +ad infinitum+ until I quit one of the apps.
While a clash such as this may be understandable when one or both apps are 3rd party, i.e. EOS Utility, it is totally unacceptable for two Apple apps to misbehave like this.

SecondaryMultiKeyCreator bug still there?

Hi, I am using the java api for the Berkeley DB, and I ran into trouble using a BTREE to secondary index a RECNO primary database. After searching the forum, it seems like this was fixed here:
http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa;jsessionid=8d92079330d60b9511031eb54ca799d8b3cc1d2ddfd8.e38QbNuQbx8Kbi0LbhaMaxqTahj0?messageID=2536190�
However, has this change not propagated into the trunk?
Essentially when I use this multi-key generator, it works fine if i comment out the second add statement, but with two add statements it totally fails to work - reading the secondary key shows a 2 byte secondary key. If you call add 3 times, it will output a 3 byte secondary key.
     private class WordGenerator implements SecondaryMultiKeyCreator {
          public void createSecondaryKeys(...) {
                    Entry e = (Entry) entrybinder.entryToObject(data);
                    DatabaseEntry seckey1 = new DatabaseEntry(), seckey2 = new DatabaseEntry();
                    stringbinder.objectToEntry(e.title.substring(0,2), seckey1);
                    results.add(seckey1);
                    stringbinder.objectToEntry(e.title.substring(2,4), seckey2);
                    results.add(seckey2);
Edit: I am now going to try using a Btree for the primary database, and use a sequence. Hope it works.
Edit2: I have confirmed that the same code works now that I use a sequence on a BTree primary database

Hi,
Probably you already read "[Selecting an access method|http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/ref/am_conf/select.html]". There's the place you should look when choosing an access method, not considering how the access methods work with sequences, cursors, etc. So it depends on what kind of data you have and how you'll access it. For example if your data items can be fixed-length and you want to achieve write concurrency, you'll want to consider using the Queue access method, since it can assign IDs faster than a Btree/Recno data structure, and offers higher concurrency for that reason. What I suggest you is to run a performance test, by reproducing your application's behavior under what you expect to be the production use.
Be aware you shouldn't configure the database to support duplicate data items (DB_DUP) when using sequences.

Can't believe the caching bug is STILL there

Hi,
I MUST be missing something. It can't be true that this has not been fixed after so many years.
So well, the problem is, every time you load an external asset or file, say for example using a Loader object or a URLLoader object (the same happened in AS2 with MovieClipLoader, LoadVars, XML.load() etc etc, and even before with loadMovie, etc) - every time you load a file, the Flash Player caches that file, and this is independent from your browser: it is Flash Player's own (and primitive) caching mechanism.
Whenever you load a file with the same URL again, no matter whether the file has been changed or not, Flash Player will use the cached copy, and there's NO WAY to prevent that - there are a few workaround that I will discuss later but they don't solve the problem completely, besides being terribly combersome.
Now, the HTTP protocol has a wonderful mechanism to manage the caching of files in an intelligent way, which has been working for years and, I think, was invented even before flash existed, however at least 10 years ago, and it works fine.
If an HTML page has an IMG tag with an image, for example, and if the browser has already a cached version of the image with that URL, the browser will first ask the server for that file and declare it has a cached version with date xxx; if the server's file is not newer than xxx, then the server replies that the file has not changed and the browser can use its cached version (or insist to redownload it if he wishes). But if the file on the server is newer, the server will reply with the new file, and the browser will NEVER show an obsolete cached version of the image (or whatever file).
Now, I don't know why, Flash Player was designed in a very primitive way that ignores this whole mechanism provided and standardised by the HTTP protocol. Flash Player will ALWAYS use a cached version of the file if he has one, it won't worry about veryfying whether it is obsolete or not.
So, unless the user clears its cache, whenever you update an xml, txt, jpg or whatever file that is loaded within your flash application, users that have previously visited the page may still see the old version.
Now, there's an easy workaround for ensuring that a cached version of the file is NEVER used, which is appending a "?somerandomname="+n to the filename, where n is obtained for example as n=(new Date()).value(); in order to ensure that it is always different.
This way, the complete url of the file is always different and the cached version will never be used.
However, this is not a solution either. For small text files it is ok, but for images and swf's for example, you DO want the cached file to be used IF it is not obsolete. Otherwise, returning visitors will always have to wait for the complete download time of everything, including files that have been downloaded yesterday and have not been modified.
So, this problem has been solved ages ago by the HTTP protocol, but the Flash Player is naive and ignores it.
I used to use 2 workarounds: the one I have mentioned for small files (texts, xml's), and the following one for files that can be updated every once in a while:
In the main html page, I append "?lastupdate=dddddd" to the swf name, where dddddd is a manually edited date of the last time something relevant has been updated. So for example:
<object ....... etc etc> <param name="movie" value="mainswffile.swf?lastupdate=20090625"/>... <embed etc etc etc src="mainswffile.swf?lastupdate=20090625"/></object>
Or something like that.
When I update some of the files that are to be loaded, I manually edit the "lastupdate" thing in the html.
Then in the ActionScript programming I use the _root.lastupdate variable to append to the filenames of images or assets I load.
All this is horribly cumbersome and error-prone. Image you deploy a website to a client that will be able to update his own texts and images: you have either to explain him how to edit the html file also, or create some complicated server-side or client-side script to manage the cache-avoiding system. That is, reinventing the wheel, in this case the cache.
Every time a new version of the player was released, I expected it to fix the stupid caching problem and to make my cumbersome tricks obsolete and unnecessary.
I expected to see that the new version would make proper use of HTTP caching protocol specifications, and use cached files ONLY when they are not outdated, after verifying it with the server according to the HTTP protocol.
Every new version of the player was a disappointment.
Then I hope the new version of the language, Action Script 3.0, would fix this.
No, it seems it doesn't.
I've done some tests with AS3 and with my great and sad surprise, the caching "bug" is still there.
Well, the bug, not the "bug": this is a bug proper, because there's no reason why it should work this way.
So, my question is.
Maybe am I missing something? Is there a way, by using some method or property of URLLoader, Loader and/or URLRequest, to tell Flash Player to use the cache in an intelligent way? I mean, in a not-astonishingly-stupid way?
Note that I'm not talking about forcing it to NOT USE cache at all: I mean using a cached version when it is appropriate, and redownloading the file when needed, as all decent http application have done for years.
Perhaps there IS a way to solve this.... It should be the default behaviour and should be transparent, but however, if there is a SERIOUS fix (not a hackaround), that would at least solve the problem.
Do anybody know of a method that really works?
(I have read of people trying by using http headers with caching directives but without success; or in the best case maybe they were able to force never-caching, which is NOT a solution as I explained)
Thanks in advance.
And if there is any Adobe developer listening, please fix this bug since it is really a shame that an application written in 2008 or 2009 suffers from a problem that was elegantly and definitely solved in the XX century.
Regards,
m.

I wrote a long reply and when I posted it it vanished.
I had even control+c'opied it before submitting but it didn't even get into my clipboard.
Shame on this forum (sorry to say that, but that's what I have to say).
So, I'll try to write it again but it won't be the same: the amount of rage is augmented.
Thank you BWolfe for letting me know that Flash now (since last year) has a bug management system. It was also such an enormous shame that it didn't have one.
Adobe used to confuse bug reports with feature requests; now this kind of confusion is still partially there and it is reflected by the voting thing, which is an absolute aberration. In a decent bug management system, the developers take the responsibility to give the bugs the priority they deserve; and no matter how low the priority, even the smallest bug ALWAYS get into the queue.
Now this bug we are discussing has been well known for AT LEAST EIGHT YEARS and I am not exaggerating at all, as I started using flash in 2001 and the issue was already mentioned here and there in forums etc; probably some blind people didn't see it as a bug (rather as a situation you have to face or work around), but it was known. And the very solution, as I already pointed out, was there even before Flash was conceived (well, for the sake of scientifical rigour, I should say, before Flash was commercialized): the HTTP protocol has the capability to perfectly manage file caching in a manner transparent to the higher layer.
So, since I don't believe that nobody at Adobe (formerly Macromedia) has heard about a bug that every intermediate-level actionscript developer in the world knows of, it is already kind of a shame that we have to report it in 2009, but that's ok. But that we have to get votes, no, that's an insult.
Jesus, ActionScript is a programming language, man, A PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE... it is not like Photoshop or Premiere; and it seems like in so many years, people who manage it haven't yet realised it completely.
Big Brother contestants should be voted. Feature requests may be voted. Bugs cannot be voted should just be fixed one by one as soon as possible.
Well, sorry for the rant and thank you for the answers.
Hope this gets through this time.

TS4209 Wi-Fi 1.0 patch will not install on a 10.7.4 Mac OSX even though the Wi-Fi loss bug is still there

Hello all,
The Wi-Fi 1.0 patch will not install on a 10.7.4 Mac OSX even though the Wi-Fi loss bug is still there, every now and then (the iMac does not detect any wi-fi network).
Are there any other solutions regarding this issue ?
kind regards

I figured out the problem.
This is going to sound a little crazy, but I've spent a lot of time on this one.
There's some kind of incompatibility with Lion and Seagate ST31000340AS drives. I was trying to install Lion on these drives and it would consistently fail. I've also tried to use these drives in a RAID volume. No go. I tried three different drives of this model. All of them failed.
I tried to install Lion on a Seagate ST31000528AS and it worked first time and sings beautifully.

Users steal ownership of Wiki Articles in Profile Activity -- Is this bug still happening?

Is anyone seeing this Wiki/Profile bug still happening (not just the results of how it happened last year):
Users steal ownership of Wiki Articles in Profile Activity
This is where the wrong person gets credit for the article (they were an editor but not the author) in the Profile Activity tab and thus, they get the Author points.
Still happening?
Meaning that the bug starts happening this year (and not just the issues with it last year).

Answer an interesting question?
Create a wiki article about it!

You have a macbook pro too (as noted), does this happen with yours? If apple changed things and it's normal, like as you stated that it was lite so you'd know you're computer is 'on' but I'd like to know for sure if that's what it's supposed to be doing. (nip it in the bud if there's a problem)
I know it isn't sleeping (not pulsing) but since the light is on (steady), it is something I noticed right away. For example, right now as I type this, with the MBP on my desk w/ the cinema display plugged in (w/ a keyboard) and the lid is closed on the MBP, the light is ON right now. Not pulsing, but a steady light. Doesn't seem like it should be, to me. (at least in my view)
Thanks for your reply Josh.

Index with "or" clause (BUG still exists?)

The change log for 2.3.10 mentions "Fixed a bug that caused incorrect query plans to be generated for predicates that used the "or" operator in conjunction with indexes [#15328]."
But looks like the Bug still exists.
I am listing the steps to-repro. Let me know if i have missed something (or if the bug needs to be fixed)

let $results := for $i in collection("test.dbxml")
where ($temp or $i/node[value = ("a")])
return $i
return <out>{$temp}{$results}</out>'
When $temp is true i expected the result set to contain both the records, but that was not the case with the index. It works well when there is no index!

Result WITHOUT INDEX

Hi Vijay,
This is a completely different bug, relating to predicate expressions that do not examine nodes. Please try the following patch, to see if it fixes this bug for you:

After reading and resetting everything with Keyboard I still get blank white screen on 2nd? page of boot. The only way I can boot to Mavericks is unplug power cord, push and hold power button while plugging power cord in. Fans run at full speed, machine boots then runs normal except the dvdrw will not .

Uninstalling Software: The Basics
Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS. Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term. Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default. You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, EasyFind, instead.
Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder. Usually with the same name as the program or the developer. The item generally has a ".pkg" extension. Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
There are many utilities that can uninstall applications. Here is a selection:
    1. AppZapper
    2. AppDelete
    3. Automaton
    4. Hazel
    5. AppCleaner
    6. CleanApp
    7. iTrash
    8. Amnesia
    9. Uninstaller
10. Spring Cleaning
For more information visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on removing software.
Be sure to remove your two Login Items. Finally do this:
Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive

Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.

TS4002 I delete an icloud email from my MacBook Pro but when I open mail again the email is still there. What's up with that?

At least I understand, but the functionality does not match what the manual says. When functionality does not match the manual it is a BUG.
What if I do not want to use IMAP or Exchange? I do not like being forced to use technology I do not trust.
No, it is not a bug. It is working as designed. And there is noting in the manual that staes you can create folders for a POP account.
You do know that any email sent through a POP account stays on the provider's server (often for years) even if you delete it from your inboxes, right? Completely beyond your control. Refusing to use an IMAP service doesn't protect you from anything.

I changed language from EN-GB to EN-US but my keyboard is still British (only when using FF). How can I change it to EN-US? in English

I changed language (based on an answer in this forum) from EN-GB to EN-US but my keyboard is still British (only when using FF). How can I change it to EN-US?
Should I just export my bookmarks, uninstall and reinstall the proper version? That may just be shorter than anything else.

GREAT!. Thanks a lot for educating me. There seem to be a million things we have to learn about our computers and when we run into them the first time they seem insurmountable. You pointed me to the solution. Thanks again. Ben

Folder is no longer in this location? But Folder Still There

I have Windows 7 and PrE 9. I was working on a folder/project on an external drive and had no problem accessing the avi or other folders in the drive. Once I was satisfied I no longer needed the project (about 14 GB) I deleted the project. I got a pop up window saying the folder was no longer in this location. What the heck? I was just working on it. I checked the folder again, everything was still there and functional. I then tried to cut and paste the folder to my main drive to see if I could delet it from there.
It started out as a normal transfer of files and then gave the message that the folder being transferred was no longer in that location. Ok. I rechecked the Project folder and it was still there but....All of the folders inside were gone except a Stop Capture folder of Zero bites. It still says the folder isn't there lol. Even though it says Zero bites I would like to get rid of this folder and the stop capture folder inside. I had two other projects right next to the one still there and they deleted fine.
Is this a Windows 7 thing and have you guys had this happen? I have one other folder on my desktop from a couple years back with the same scenario. Says its not there so I can't delete it. I just labeled it "can't get rid of this folder" and gave up but it still bugs me. Now I have another one.
Thanks

ATR,
I should have labeled this post "Could Not Find This item" or Item Not Found
Problem solved. I downloaded 7-zip version 9.22 beta from sourceforge (for whatever reason- just seemed good) There are other places to download from. Choose your favorite.
Here is a screenshot of my problem folder so that if others run into this problem 7zip may work for them.
I had a tussle with 7zip and it did not work to begin with, but the problems turned out to be really simple. My nephew is a computer wiz and came over to use the DOS procedure that people are using on the internet to delete the folder. At first he couldn't get it to work. Then we discovered there were 3 folders, one inside the stop motion capture, the stop motion capture, and the outer project folder. The folders had to be deleted from the innermost first, one at a time, to the outer folder. Hallelujah. This folder is gone after 2 years of staring at me.
If you have this message like I did the first thing to do is go into the main folder to the innermost items and delete as many as will delete normally thru windows. Keep deleting the inner folders til you get to the first one that won't delete. Then see how many folders inside the main folder remain.
So let's try 7zip again. I am a newbie so I thought others might like how my nephew and I did it.
In the main window there will be a short list on the left starting with computer and accessable drives. Double click on computer (or whichever location your trouble folder is in). A bigger list of stuff will show up. Mine was in the desktop so I double click on that. I look at that list fo find my trouble folder. Double click on that. Each time you double click will go to the next internal folder. Then when you get to the innermost folder rename it ( we just used the word del). Up higher on the screen is the red delete X click on that. the folder will be gone. To get to the next folder use the green "up one level" arrow just to the left of the url bar. The next folder will show up, rename and press X to delete. When you have reached the outer folder which you thought was your problem folder it will dissapear from your desktop ( or wherever it was located). In my case I had to delete 3 folders. My other problem folder was in my external drive so I just went through the same procedure after double clicking on the drive letter which was in the list in the starting window. Exit 7-zip when done.
You don't have to close 7-zip to delete the folders as I listed in my previous posts. These were just info I got from a couple of websites. Not complete by any means. They presume you know what you are doing with computers.
The only reason I started this discussion was because both of these folders were made with PrE7 and PrE9. I have never had this problem with anything else. Must be some kind of filing error between PrE and windows.
Hope this helps. The DOS procedure was lengthy and was way above my head but 7-zip only took a few minutes.

Keyboard Bug - PLEASE HELP!

I've purchased my Z10 less than 1 week ago and I've noticed this problem the very next day. At first I assumed it was a small problem and it wouldn't happen often but it's been occuring EVERY DAY at least once and it's gotten really irritating now.
The virtual keyboard on the Z10 works perfectly fine, the buttons dont stick, spell check is working properly and I'm able to type with this keyboard with no problems, HOWEVER for some odd reason the keyboard STOPS functioning sometimes while I'm sending an SMS. The keyboard is still visible, I'm still able to press the buttons on the keyboard as they become highlighted whenever I do. However, no actual letter/character appears in the message box no matter how many buttons I press. The only thing which seems to temporarily fix this problem is restarting my blackberry Z10 device which can be very annoying and time consuming.
Please help me out with this problem as I have tried searching online for days and can't find a solution. Is this a problem with the Z10 software? will there be an update fixing this? am I the only one experiencing this problem?
Please note that I have not once dropped my phone, it's been kept in MINT condition with a case on it. Everything else works perfectly fine with my Z10, this is the only MAJOR issue

I just tried exactly what you said. Mis-spelled a word (easy for me) , hit the red underlined word, it popped up a window that said 'no suggestions', I tapped at the end of my sentence and carried on typing. No hang up at all.

Preview Select Tool: Rest of the page "still there", hidden

Very regularly I use the select tool in Preview: I open a pdf page file1.pdf in Preview, use the select tool to select part of the page, and then copy it and create a new pdf from it (ctrl-c, ctrl-n) and save it to file2.pdf.
Today I discovered the following problem: Even though the new pdf file2.pdf looks like a cropped version of the original page, the original page "is still there". Usually it is invisible. But for example, if I open file2.pdf with Acrobat Professional, go to avanced -> print production -> crop page, then all of a sudden I get to see the whole original page of file1.pdf. However, when I just open file2.pdf with preview, or in the standard mode of acrobat, I just see the cropped part.
This is terrible, for two reasons:
* first, it means that confidential information that used to be in file1.pdf and seems to have disappeared in file2.pdf is still there and can be revealed by someone who knows how.
* it can create trouble with other applications, for example in latex (this is how I found the bug / feature in the first place).
So here are my questions:
* can I reveal in preview the "hidden parts"?
* is there any way to permanently delete these hidden parts?
* is there any way to ensure that they are not there at all if I use the select tool?
I'm using OS X 10.7.
Best regards, Ulrike

Jari,
i still think this is a bug, obviously the condition of the Process isn't used.
brgds,
Peter
