It does happen in the full version too (but interestingly enough, not in Comic Base 8). The only other I've encountered happends when you "x" out of a menu instead of canceling out: the same error occurs. Human Computing has been very good about fixing any bugs, so I assume there will be a patch soon. I hadn’t noticed that error before, but you’re right.

It looks ok to me but like I said, I never used the older versions. However, I did notice this little issue with the demo version: Select "Comics" located at the top of the main window. I then selected "Find Comics" from the pull down menu. In the "Find:" window I made the mistake of accidentally selecting the "-------------------" separator. When this occurs you get a "Run-time error `438`: Object doesn't support this property or method" and the program dies a horrible death (using up one of my 30 chances to try it out). Does this happen in the full blown version? Are there other bugs or is this a pretty stable product. I'd hate to blow $120 to $200 on garbage.
