There have been no bells and whistles in the more recent releases that gave me anything I felt I needed for my very small department of one. I've been using Frame since 2.1 and have a strong partiality for the Frame interface vs. the Adobe one, so that was even more incentive to stay where I am. I suppose I'll need to upgrade some day, but for now, I'm fine where I am. <br><br>...Susan<font size="2" color="#00007f" face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><font size="1"><br></font></font><div><br></div><div style="font-family: verdana,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><br><div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt;"><font size="2" face="Tahoma"><hr size="1"><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">From:</span></b> Carrie

I do not know if it is altogether a bad thing to be using Frame 7. I sort of just wanted to know that other people are also using Frame of that vintage.<br><br>

<br>I know the "FrameMaker on Mac" horse was beaten to death long ago, but perhaps it's time for Adobe to consider reviving the horse...<br><br>-Alan<br>---<br><font color="#888888"><br>Alan Houser, President<br>
