RE: On Win95, location drop down broken. Where is the st ate stored?: msg#00257

Subject: RE: On Win95, location drop down broken. Where is the st ate stored?
Thanks Bo. Its the latest: 1.3.13.1 beta 13 build 1.
I'll take a look at the registery.... again.
the normal way of "Delete" ing it does not work in
this case, as I said. It works for all the others.

Thanks,
