- I have reported both of these Help problems in BC5.0, as well as 12 other bugs
- to Borland. While I commend Borland for responding via email to most of my
- bug reports within a few days, it would be nice if Borland expedited posting
- this info on their much touted bug database so that each of us can stop
- wondering if all the bugs are unique to us or if everyone is having these
- problems.
-
- As of this date, the most recent bug report posted on that database is 3/15/96
- (before 5.0 was even released). I wish Borland would consider the vast amount
- of time which is wasted by thousands of their customers trying to track down
- bugs which have already been reported because the information just isn't
- available to us in a timely manner.
