Hi list,
before adding to Mantis I'd like to ask if someone else has the same  
problems.

Valentina 3.5.2 (feb 9)
Mac OS X 10.5.2
Mac Pro
fresh install of VStudio
v1 plugin enabled


problem 1
- Utilities menu > Convert_1_2 asks for a file and then nothing  
happens. (Mac only?)

problem 2
- Open a v1 DB (reindexed, checked, all OK)
- Contextual menu on table > export
- dialogs ask for destination, fields to export, etc
- result on v1 tables is always 0 records, file is not created

problem 3
- Create a new v1 DB, mode 4, one table, one varchar field, three  
records.
- close the DB
- open it again
- table name is garbage, data is lost

I tried Convert_1_2 on Windows XP (simple test DB created on Mac, see  
problem 3): it adds a .blb file to the v1 DB (why?) and the table is  
unreadable.


Let me know... I can't export a simple table and obviously I thought  
it was a five minute task that my customer asked me to do.
