Subscript Mapping Combo Box not working

Hi.
My Sable interface uses combo boxes for subscript selection and these subscripts also have subscript mapping.
Eg. Series of Subscripts N1, N2, N3 etc. each have a subscript mapping to a named location. i.e. N1 - Chester; N2 = Liverpool etc.
The combo boxes work nicely in the Sable Runtime interface when I use Sable Runtime to open the .vpn file, displaying the subscript mapping in the combo box. i.e. Displays Chester, Liverpool etc.
Exactly the same combo boxes when packaged as .spk do not display the subscript mapping value, only the subscripts themselves. So the combo box only displays N1, N2 etc.

This is a real issue for presentation of the packaged product. Do you have any suggestions please?

Can you email the SPK to us to test?

I can't email - the file is too large, but I can FTP it to you. Can you give me an email address?

Yes, I've got it, just about to take a look.

Can you let me know the exact version of Sable you are using please?

And can you let me know how to get to the screen where the subscript mappings are not working?

Version of Sable is 5.1.299.

Once the intro screen opens - click on main menu. The combo box is at the right of the screen. Labelled Location.

Doe the attached look ok? If yes, this is obviously something we've fixed some time ago (your copy of Sable is quite old).

That looks like it is working.

I wonder if it is worth my upgrading Sable? Last time I enquired - about 3 years ago - the advice was that I probably wouldn't see any particular change in functionality. Can we discuss?

We fix bigs all the time and there have definitely been a lot of development since your version. Email us with your serial number and we can give you a quote for an upgrade.
