At this time, given the problems that OTHERS have cited--and not on my own testing--as I have NOT tested nor developed with SP2--I would not recommend a move to SP2 for production-related work. I'm reminded of something I heard (perhaps credited to Eleanor Roosevelt): "Learn from the mistakes of others, because you don't have enough time to make all of them yourself." Does that clarify my stance? ;-) -- Michael J.
