    No, it's not a reason not to upgrade, and I've been using Xy4
exclusively since Beta. The reason I keep hammering at it is I want to be
sure Nathan puts it on his list of bugs (see his post of 3rd December)
instead of features.
    And yes, I will speak right up - there is a difference aside from
the page break lines. I quote from my orignal posting of Dec. 2:  On my document with 300+ pages and
oodles of footnotes and a 40 MHz processor, that frustration is real.
    Also my December 4th posting pre-confirmed Bob Brody's statement:
. For me, it was searches. What is the
"workaround" for these other actions?
    If it's a Feature, it's an insufficiently debugged feature.  Jim.
