Re: XyWrite 4.11 for Windows

Eric--
  I have run into similar problems with XyWrite for Windows.
The system crashes when I try to do certain kinds of searches.
Also when printing XyWrite for DOS files with XyWrite for
Windows, I have gotten incompatibility messages regarding screen
and printer fonts mismatching. Text versions show up at the
printer as long strings of 0000000's. I also get system crashes
with the message "Protection Violation." I am waiting for tech
support to send me 4.11 or 4.12.
