Hi,
I just installed build 525 on my XP box and tested it with some Word forms.  
The fix works, or so it seems.

  Hi,
  I'd have to agree with you, although the fix for reading in Word forms is 
possibly a big deal where I work.

    Pretty anemic, I'd say. No major issues resolved, and the cranky ResearchIt 
problems consume a lot of FS resources. Too bad ResearchIt is so dependent on 
the web page layout to work.

    This update was smoke and mirrors.
