Existing users, 
I had been hoping that the ruler bug in Notes would have been fixed with this update...not the case. One would expect note text to wrap to the width of the text box by default but the right margin of the ruler is literally "off the page" and prevents the text from wrapping. When I resize the window to see the ruler control it skips off the end of the page again out of view making it literally impossible to format the note with the ruler. How could such an obvious bug go unfixed?
The other ruler bug affecing notes is that the ruler is always in partial view when a new note is created. When I click in the note field the ruler becomes fully visible even though I have it set to not be visible. The ruler should either be visible or not visible and should respect a users settings. Again, this is such an obvious bug I can't beleive it hasn't been addressed.

I'm even more frustrated by FORMS.Using preference to imput the fields you end up with three field orders; database order) the order you enter the fields), FORM order (the order you want them to appear) and alpha order.
Users entering data see the logical order, users viewing the resulting information see it in database order (why!) and when selecting fields to add data to Smart Lists they appear in alpha order.
And the Descriptions - there to help users populate the form correctly or understand the result; well they don't aopear anywhere at all!
It doesn't matter where you go in this applicationn; as soon as you're one level below the surface you begin to see the cracks.
