Re: MLog.exe problems in TS 2000i

Yes, I've had the crash on verify on systems that I know work.  Have you been
typing good code and Power Editor seems to be checking your work and just checks
forever.  I have had to end Power Editor then reopen it and put the { in front of
my typing until I had the whole line in, they take the { out and it worked fine,
with the exact same code as I was typing before.  I have taken to using the old
power editor in my old machine to type systems or change them then copy with a
text editor to a disk and move it to my new machine and paste it in.

All in all I think the problems with TS 2000i are pretty simple for programers to
fix if they know what they are exactly and that they are not poor users causing
problems.  I wont go back to TS4 as good is it has been to me, because my trading
is vastly improved by being able to chart the bid on options that don't trade very
often.  I like to see what they are doing not remember what I saw on the Quote
Monitor.

Looking forward to the next build,

Jimmy
