Ah, that's at the top of my gripes list too. I'm pretty sure that Undo is even less functional in 6 than in 5.2. Another shortcoming is the lack of AutoSave or AutoBackup capability. It's too easy to lose track of time, crash, and then discover that you haven't saved anything in 2 hours. (Or maybe its just dementia on my part.) I've created a little palette of my own with an AutoSave function that saves the InputNotebook[] every few minutes. That works pretty well, and if anyone would like to test it, let me know. I've made an attempt at an AutoBackup function, but I don't know how to make it sufficiently non-intrusive. -- Selwyn On Jun 6, 2007, at 6:43 AM, Will Robertson wrote: > Hello, > > I am baffled that technical software is released in 2007 with only a > single undo level.
