After many delays CDD have finally replaced their A0 plotter. The plotter is currently attached only to Hazel's PC but there are plans to connect it to the network. Thanks must go to Tracks for their patience while we sorted out some hiccups in the ordering procedure. The Year 2000 investigation by SBSC is proceeding and computer code is now being checked. MapInfo 4.5 Version 4.5 is starting to be used within the council.
Early indications are that it has some useful features.
Mark Percival has rashly promised a review of 4.5 from a users point of view for the next Newsletter. Many thanks Mark, we look forward to reading it. I have been receiving reports from some of you about regular General Protection Faults caused by MapInfo. We are aware that MapInfo can sometimes have problems with certain video drivers. This needs investigating further so don't suffer in silence.
