Hi,
I have been wondering why the tab key is disabled or not supported on 'List Import Wizard page'; since the default token separator is the Tab.
Occasionally I need to insert a tab while in 'List Import Wizard' and its not available. This is only a minor drawback and I work around it by pasting a 'patch' when needed.

Bugs fixed / Opening file with undefined language
October 15, 2007, 09:51:24 PM
ALERT: a potential crash condition.
If a "deck" file is opened that has a language that has
not been listed in--[options>stackz options>languages],
'STACKZ' will crash and continue to crash.
[My previous post here modified 26oct2007] To recover, try to delete/rename the last opened file so that it can't be loaded automatically at startup. After the next start-up of 'STACKZ', 1st step, list all languages that you will be working with in--[options>stackz options>languages]. If you don't know what was the last file loaded, the file will show in 'Task Manager'. 
I experienced this while upgradeing to Version 07 RC 6 Standard Edition.

Otherwise, 'STACKZ' is a pleasure to use.

Thanks for all the improvements.

Sir:
Subject: unfulfilled request, failure to remember settings.

Someone previously noted that the 'Maximum Local Stack Elements setting' in the 'learn Dialog' function does not remember a setting and must be reset each new time STACKZ is used.

I use STACKZ to collect 'word for the day' from various sources in different languages.[about.com]
I preload 100 empty numbered elements to a lesson and then add the
new words one by one daily. To access all of the elements I have to reset to 100 each new time used.
Teaching STACKZ to remember settings would be an excellent improvement to an already great product.

There may be a bug: ver 5a

When in the "edit entire file" mode there may be a problem with "delete function" or the "save" function.
When deletions are made at random or from top down or bottom up and the the file is "saved", a line becomes "high lighted".  Sometimes upon the next deletion the "encountered a problem and must close" warning shows and the program shuts down.
I can avoid the shut down by "pre-empting", that is, by immeadiately closing "edit" when the blue line appears and re-starting "edit" if more deletions are wanted.
No apparent damage is done by the unwanted shutdown except the previously deletions may not saved.
I have experienced this behavior on several different deck files so far.

Bugs fixed / Stackz 07 Beta4 won't install
June 14, 2007, 09:57:42 AM
Hello,
I downloaded the new beta 4 version of STACKZ but it won't install properly.
When clicking on the short cut to start, it displays the blue Stackz flag and freezes. When I click on the  flag it says it has encountered a problem and must shut down.
I've tried several times uninstall and reinstall but just can't get it to install. I've gone back to beta 1.

Hello,
I would like the option to have the cards appear in sequence as listed in edit so that I can listen to a digital audio file at the same time as viewing the cards so that audio and card are synchronized.

Also an option to apply different colors to individual cards would be helpful.
