Robert,

I started with Blackbox 1.4 from CD. I assumed that there were no patches
on it, but I am not sure. Unfortunately there is no version identification
in Blackbox after the 1.4.

Then I installed all patches from SP1 on top of this.

Does this help you?

Kind regards
Wolfgang

I seem to remember that one of the Patches updated
the Strings module. Were you using all the patches
before trying service pack 1?, and has this change
happened since the patches, or since BBox 1.4 'out-
of-the-box'.

I ask because I half remember something like this
a long time ago, but have completely forgotten the
details without doing some investigations. But problems
with RealToString do worry me!

Cheers

Robert.
