Re: Guide 8 update and crashing program

davidfirebaugh@ymail.com May 24, 2010

I got curious tonight and updated the testing version . "Help" was showing feb 2002 , less function than before the update.

So I removed all guide files ,reloaded Guide and the update (testing) now back to limited fuctionality and the $version$ update shows.

Very limited functionality and I scrubbed the guide files before the re-install. After re-install and update (testing) no edit comet -asteriod data ,but *.* when I try to update asteriods mpc ,comets . but the Glossary works now ??!

Im lost --- where to now . Could use a lil help in laymans terms .
Thanks Guides users .
Dave
