RH 8 crashes when loading RH 8 environment

[sstewart-lbmx]

I just upgraded from RH 6 to RH 8, and wanted to be able to tab back and forth between viewing TOC, Topics, and WYSIWYG design view, just the way I did before.  I created an environment that should allow me to tab between TOC and Topic List in the left-hand pane, but when I try to load it, the TOC tab appears with the Topic List tab in the left-hand pane until I click on it, at which point the entire application crashes and shuts down.  How can I fix this?

I'd post the environment file, but I have no idea where RH put it, sorry.

There's a bug reported somewhere in these forums reporting that you cannot maintain the TOC between sessions. Sorry but you will have to open the TOC in each session.

Thanks for your help.  I'm not happy to hear it, being as I am already fighting with the new interface, but if I know about it, I can work around it.

There are some RH7 environments that you can download from my site. They will work in RH8.

As to the bug, the more people who report a bug or request a feature, the more likely it is to be actioned. Please follow this link.

Done, thanks.  That's the first time I've ever reported a bug to a company I wasn't working for -- I do testing and internal bug reporting normally as well as documentation...

Thank you again for all your help!
