Pretend build 24 never happened.

Okay, this is another one of those builds where the... ahem...

UPGRADE INSTALLER WILL OVERWRITE YOUR DATA

So you need to export your data from the previous build (if you want it) and import it into this build. Mike fixed several problems with the import. If you couldn't import something before, it's worth trying again.

The build 25 upgrade installer will upgrade from build 22 or higher (including the unfortunate build 24). If you have an earlier build installed (or no build), you'll need to run the full install.

This build is specially engineered to report reasons for failures. You might hear beeps while DROD is running. This means that an error message has been written to drod.err in your data directory. If something goes screwy or DROD crashes, send the text found inside of drod.err (open it with notepad) along with your bug report. Note that maybe some messages might have been put in your drod.err file before the incident occurred.

We think these bugs were fixed in build 24/25... (Repeating the list from 24 with a few additions) So these are the bugs Mike and Schik probably fixed. Please tell us if you think they still need work.
