Hi,

It's very strange we have been using the 47 version for too many months but
seldom crashes. We basicall just use it for authenticating through ODBC SQL
database and do
all the job through web based SQL scripts. We don't use the invoicing
because it's the
part which my colleague tried but didn't work or crashes. I just wonder
what happen to
the new version maybe it's too advanced?

Just a thought.

Sunny
