- One assumes that you have patched Acorn DTP with the patch files supplied
- on the support disc for RO3.1?
-
- It seems quite likely that failing to do this would result in the
- instability you describe.
-
- And thinking along other lines someone on the net a little while ago was
- bemoaning the loss of the international keyboard drivers that RO2 had. Again
- I wonder if they have tried the IntKey module which claims to restore this
- functionality to RO3 for those who need it. I can't say I have tried it much
- myself but I assume it does what it is described to do.
-
- Come on people read the documentation...
