Re: "Umlaut" in Button and ALT

It sounds like a bug...I keep telling my clients **DON'T** use beta
test software and expect it to perform like a final release...it
won't.

What kind of "scrambled text" do you mean? Have you an exact example?

   It's a big problem, because in Germany you have to use them, as "zurueck"

Nat&uuml;rlich.

   for example. Do you know a workaround (another than to write ae for =E4), or
   does the Mac Users have to wait for a new version??=20

No, go back and use the previous working version :-)
