Dear TaxDaddy users,

I regret to say there was a bug in the export features of TaxDaddyHC v0.9
and TaxDaddy v0.9.

I will try and write an record capture program to be included with the
next version of TaxDaddy (see below) which will bring your old records
into the new version.  Until then, If you want to export fields and
records it will be necessary to copy and paste each field through the
clipboard to your destination file.

A new version, TaxDaddy v.1.0, will be available in about 2 weeks from
normal sources (umich, info-mac, and paleonet's ftp site).  The new
version will correctly export records, have enhanced graphic capabilities
and provide range charts.

To keep from cluttering up PaleoNet, please direct all questions about
TaxDaddy directly to me at the e-mail address below. If you use TaxDaddy
and want to be informed of bug fixes and new releases, etc...  please
send me an e-mail message with the request that you be put on the
TaxDaddy list.

Thanks to Carlos for finding the bug.

-Chris
