Release Notes
REA 9.19.2
Released July 8, 2013
Bug Fixes
-
Some users, especially with Windows 8, had problems when MDI child windows were
maximized, including lockups, program crashes, and equally horrible things. We
believe we've fixed most of these.
-
Some users found that if they minimized REA 9 they could not restore it by
clicking on the taskbar icon. This one is fixed.
-
Exporting to Excel from the dashboard included raw RTF code from the notes
field. It now converts to plain text.
-
Some stored objects (queries, import maps, etc.) created with the demo version
of REA could not be loaded with the full version, and vice versa. This also
affected our ability to email import maps (etc.) to demo users. Now fixed.
