I did try and search for the bug but was unable to locate it. I must not have used the correct key words, or perhaps I simply missed it. At any rate, thanks for the immediate response.
Unless you include them explicitly RESOLVED bugs don't show up in queries -- thus the rule about trying the very latest builds before filing bugs.
Oh ok, thats good to know. 1.2b worked fine for me, its just that I wanted to use the more potentially stable 1.1. Anyhow, sorry for the dup and thanks again for the prompt responses. I will be more thorough in searching for previously listed bugs in the future.
