And another thing....A single click on the Identify button now launches =
an empty results dialog box which has a knack for covering up the items =
on which I want to click. Gets me every time.
(not exactly an outrage but is a bit of a nuisance)

Subject: [gislist] ArcGIS 9 - recommend postponing installation
Dear Listers,
Have had ArcGIS 9 (ArcInfo) installed for less than a week. After a =
rather
circuitous path to getting it actually installed, and a quick call the =
ESRI
tech support, I would have to say at this point that I would strongly
recommend postponing installation or upgrading until ESRI cleans things =
up
and re-issues the CDs. They have pulled a "Microsoft" on this one: the =
tech
at ESRI confirmed a known issue with installation on a single license
dongle [the license administrate does not record the machine name and so =
a
secondary step of actually typing it in is required]. But, after having
tried to work with a dataset that worked just fine under 8.x, it has =
crashed
multiple times so far with 9.x with a fairly major application error. I
really am tired of paying a king's ransom for the privilege of advanced
beta-testing. I will be uninstalling 9.x, and reinstalling 8.x to keep
working. You would also think ESRI could come up with a method that =
would
truly "upgrade" previous installations without having to completely
uninstall the older version first [in the interest of saving a =
significant
amount of time...]. =20
...not a happy camper..
Anthony
