Mark,

No, it does not fail. XyWrite 4 doesno't pretend to know your needs
better than you do, as the smiling paperclip edition of Word does. If
you don't like or need
wildcard search and replace, better memory management, the ability to
read past EOF markers, and enhanced XPL, then fine, stay with what you
have.
