        THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

        This new release ALSO fixed the "Unexpected File Format" issue that was preventing many of my BV files from opening. This one fix will literally save me HOURS of re-building what I thought were lost files!

        Thanks again for a GREAT product!

                OK, I have resolved the problem that did not relate to bv12.2
                A portion on an IFrame was overlapping the text links causing them to be visible but not clickable.

                      I've downloaded BV 12.2 and looked all over the buttons and dropdown menus, but I can't find any "Slide Show" tool. I would expect to find it by clicking "Insert" (in BV's top menu) and going to "Extra" but it's not there. Can someone help me find it?

                        Re: BlueVoda Version 12.2

                        I have Windows7 64bit OS. I installed BV V12.2 over top V12. I had to reinstall a few times and after each time, I got a Windows warning that the Program might not have loaded properly .... with explanation that usually caused by unsuccessful loading of a Driver.
                        I opened a new page each time I started it up and looked under Help>About BlueVoda to see which version was being displayed. It still reads Version12. Should it not show Version 12.2 ??? I checked a new feature like " Image Rollover - Animations" and it was there and worked fine. So I'm left wondering if the Version Number in the "About BlueVoda" is just an oversight????

                          The Slide Show toll is called 'Ad Banner Rotator'. You will find it under Insert, Extra, Ad Banner Rotator.
