MLXchange 3.0 addresses compatibility issues

Microsoft's newest version of Windows, Vista, is out and subscribers who have already upgraded know there are some minor compatibility issues with MLXchange. Specifically, Vista users encounter error messages when they attempt to log in and will loose the use of all Mapping Features including Map Searches, Map Views, Driving Directions, Plotting Maps and any Geocoding Functionality within Listing Maintenance. While we've identified a temporary work-around for this challenge, the MFRMLS Technical Group is excited because the upcoming release of MLXchange version 3.0 later this year will address all the incompatibility issues and integrate perfectly with Vista.

• If you're already running Vista, you'll need to turn off Protective Mode to allow these advanced features to operate.
• If you haven't upgraded to Vista yet, we recommend waiting until after the MLXchange 3.0 release.
