Hi, Patricia. I avoid bringing this up, since XY4 can do things that XY3
simply cannot (including more powerful programming, printing options,
styling, etc.), but some of us don't use XY4 or only use it exceptionally
for specific tasks (I'm in that category) because it crashes more often,
produces more fragmentation of files, and is in general more flaky. I
know there are a number of users out there who will deny this. So be it.
I've used XY4 on four different machines and experienced the same
failures. Upgrading to the last available version made no difference in
those difficulties.
