Outstanding Issues
• After upgrading is may be necessary to manually release the CodeValue system table. Please contact our office if you need assistance with how to release this table.
• The spell checker does not support words over 64 characters in length. This will cause a crash in TOXICALL®.
• When using the auto save function, right-clicking on the open notes window to access the spell checker functions will cause a crash. This problem is infrequent and is caused by a timing issue.
• The outstanding issues shown below for version v4.2.4 appear to be resolved. If you experience problems please contact our technical support.
