Martin, thank you for the hint. I was able to resolve this by deleting all lines beginning with "DOWNL1" This allowed me to download and update to the latest 64 bit build.

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction.

1. Please determine if you have the file "portable.txt" in the SoftMaker program folder on the stick. 2. Ensure that you are running SoftMakerUpdaterTool from the stick and not from the local install. 3. Post the contents of your updater.ini file here. portable.txt is in the proper locati...

I am running the 64 bit portable version build 1024.Tried to update to the latest build (1030) but noticed the download says the 32 bit version was being downloaded. Obviously I don't want that, so I terminated the download. Tried again and got the same message. Besides relying on a full install and...

Thank you!!!!

Thank you, but in 2018 updating could be run from the portable version. In very early versions of 2018 this did not work but it was fixed. Why can't this work in 2021?

That's too bad. I thought I had missed something. Thank you for confirming and for referring it.

Hi:

Is there an equivalent to LibreOffice's "Data Form?" This permits data entry with a form. The user does not have to continually scroll horizontally and once done with record 1, can go to record 2 (and so on).

Thank you.

Jon

The file was sent. Please let us know your findings.

Thank you.

I think I found a clue to my specific problem, although I agree that paragraph borders are prone to problems. In my case the document was originally created in MS Word and I was applying borders to it using TextMaker. I now see why this problem cannot be replicated in TextMaker alone. When I create ...

No. It exhibits the same behavior. The single 0.5 point lines become 3 point double lines.
