Hi BJ (and all), I wasn't aware of the startup error, but there have been problems with=20= saving pages. There are several known bugs in this version, which=20 Parquesoft will be fixing over the next month or so. Also, since they=20 worked from EClass.Builder 2.0 beta 3, there are also some bugs from=20 older versions of EClass present that will be fixed when it is merged=20 into the main codebase. This version is basically a prototype to get=20 your thoughts on the interface changes and new features. Also, could you re-send the startup error? The graphic didn't come=20 through.
