Indicator references show up correctly in my outline. I'll try to keep an eye out for it not working.
That said, if you feel RDi 9.0 is worth it to you, then make the case for why it's worth it. Exclude the known bugs from the justification. Bugs get worked out. Being stuck on an old version pretty much guarantees that any bugs that exist at that level aren't getting fixed, because the fix is to upgrade. If you can make the case for how beneficial RDi 9.0 would be for you, that's all that should matter. You're not asking for licenses for the whole shop if they're not going to use it. I do understand the struggle. I've had to go through it as well. Thing is, once it's approved, you have to stay on top of them to keep making the yearly payments, then you shouldn't have to run into this again (hopefully).
Best of luck,
Kurt

But, the outline view does not work in RDi 9.0 either, for the indicators. Not listing all the places the indicator is used...
:(
So, I beg with management to purchase the RDi 9.0 or the SWA, and it still doesn't work...
:( Hard to make a case for upgrade.
In today's economy, I have to tread carefully, when asking for extra spenditure and 70% of the programming staff is NOT using RDP.
Oh well, their lost, not mine! <smirk> I will still use an OLD version of RDP over SEU<yuck!>

Entitled, yes, if under maintenance. You still need to get the activation kit for the new version. In ESS, I think there was download for it - our system admin got it. In PA I believe there's some license link.

Buck,
I'm aware that it's a separate license, but if you're current on Rational Developer, I'm pretty sure you're entitled to the new license. Any internal red-tape one might have to go through is an unfortunate side effect - one that I'm going through now as our BP continues to try to get us switched to PPO. I have 2 days left on my 9.0 trial (which I also notified our BP about).

If Ken has the 8.0 license, isn't he entitled to 9.0? (Assuming
they're up-to-date on the annual fees.)
The licence doesn't automatically follow from the earlier version. I upgraded without charge from 8.5 to 9.0 via Passport Advantage but I had to get new licences. That worked OK for me since I'm the designated admin person here. Individual developers can't easily get the 9.0 licence - they have to go through the designated admin. No idea how it works with ESS.
