Hi , I have just joined the forum. I'm Tech support for Mitsubishi Industrial Automation dealership in South Australia. Just a few points 1: the japanese shouldn't be allowed to write software, they cannot get it right. Any improvements you want will fall on deaf ears. It takes a lot of red tape to get them to accept that it needs change let alone getting them to actually do it. The latest release of GX developer as a distributor we have is V8.80j. My side kick partner finds the GX works 2 is very slow as compared to GX-developer and we have pre-release beta copies of what ever comes out of japan. Will be online when I can to help with any posting
