Changes from EXP 5.1 to EXP 5.1.0.1

Bug Fixes

• Versions of EXP prior to 5.1.0.1 contain a bug in the logic that displays control codes (Show Codes), page numbers, automatic numbers, and footnote marks. Although this bug has been present in EXP since version 3.0, it is not known to cause EXP to crash except in EXP 5.1. The bug's change in behavior can be attributed to changes that Microsoft made to their newer C++ compilers. In any event, this bug is fixed as of EXP 5.1.0.1.
• In EXP 5.1, there is a problem with the "Repair Installation" option for EXP in Control Panel's Add/Remove Programs dialog box. If the EXP51.exe file gets repaired, the user's authorization code is removed from the system. This problem is fixed as of EXP 5.1.0.1.

LaTeX Conversion

• The LaTeX converter in versions of EXP prior to 5.1.0.1 contains logic that forces paragraphs tagged as "Normal", "Heading", or "Declaration" to structure level 1 (the outermost structure level). As of version 5.1.0.1, that logic has been removed. EXP now respects the user's setting of structure level in all cases.
