Re: URGENT !! PTFs to fix another integrity problem -- MI400

Does anyone know exactly why the PTFs are defective?  Is there a
workaround?  Are there PTFs to supercede the current PTFs?

I have five regional sites that need to install the PTFs.  One has
already done so and is having display problems.  Any information would
be appreciated.

Actually, the latest version of the V4 PTFs are defective! They cause
other display file problems!
