Since I upgraded to System 7.0 I have been bothered that FWP 1.5 doesn't allow you to use the MF menu at the right or the Balloon-help menu. I decided on a hunch that Apple had changed how they stored and used menus in the System to try FWP Diddler 1.2 which was created in 1988 to allow users of 1.0 and 1.1 to use On-Cue. Well, that solved the problems totally. So you should get FWP Diddler off the A-T BBS if you are using 7.0. Also, I am running MODE32 with 32 bit addressing and VM turned on and have not had FWP 1.5 crash yet. A-T claims it is System 7.0 ready except for a few bugs with laserwriter page setup dialogs.
