SANE TOOL PROBLEM:
BThe Spreadsheet and Database modules use the SANE tool. The SANE A
?tool has a problem where, under certain conditions, entering a ?
=number will either hang the machine or provide unpredictable
numerical results.
BThis is a known problem. It has been reported to Apple and might E
Cbe fixed in a future update of the system software. Until then be <
:sure to leave the "SANE.Fix" Permanent Init active in the E
C*:System:System.Setup folder. NOTE: If Apple does fix the problem E
Cit won't matter whether SANE.Fix is installed or not (it would not :
8be needed, but nothing bad would happen if it was still
installed).
CONLINE READERS: If you received this Compatibility file through an @
>online service, SANE.Fix might not have been provided on your E
Coriginal copy of The Manager. If that's the case you can download C
it from the same place you found this updated Compatibility file.

No serious problems, but a few important notes:
NOTE...
AIf you have a folder open on the desktop and you save a new file B
@into that folder, the folder is not updated to show the updated
contents.
AThis is a known problem with Finder 6.0.0. It has been reported ?
to Apple and might be fixed in a future update of the Finder.
NOTE...
CDouble-clicking a document attempts to launch the application that :
8created that document. If Finder 6.0.0 cannot find the C
Aapplication it presents a dialog box that says, "The application D
B'XYZ' can't be found for this document," with buttons for Cancel,
Try Again, and Locate.
BDO NOT CLICK THE "LOCATE" BUTTON! If you click the Locate button =
;and find the application, The Manager disappears, all open @
>applications are aborted (losing any changes you made to open *
documents), then the Finder is launched.
?This is a known problem with Finder 6.0.0 (it is not sending a E
C"FinderSaysBeforeLaunch" message so The Manager cannot prevent the C
Aquit command). It has been reported to Apple and might be fixed #
in a future update of the Finder.
NOTE...
AAs usual, double-clicking a document that belongs to an unopened D
Bapplication will launch the application and open the document (if
the application supports it).
7However, double-clicking a document that belongs to an E
Calready-opened application will activate that application but will E
Cnot open the document. This is normal because applications aren't D
Bexpecting an "open this file" message except at startup time. If C
Ayou are a programmer and would like to overcome this limitation, &
please contact Seven Hills Software.
-=> FINDER-VIEW (FEX, Jupiter Systems)
CWill not view 3200 pictures. A future update of The Manager might
overcome this limitation.
@Some users report that clicking will not dismiss a picture, but E
Cthe "Auto Slide-Show" option does. As a precaution you might want (
to check the "Auto Slide-Show" option.
CWe are in the process of determining whether the problem is in the "
system extension or The Manager.
