Macro Error I53

Problem

Macro error I53 (eye-53, but they may read it as one-53) when making new contract with stock clauses and specifications. Windows only

Diagnosis

This is a bug in the Windows vsn due to some leftover Mac code in MacNail construction specifications software.

Solution

TO FIX IT:
1. Go to cell I178 (eye-178) in SPECWRIT.XLM. In the formula bar it should read:
=IF(safe.open(source,CHOOSE(source.type,path.est,path.project.list, path.sched,find.BM(),path.spec.files),FALSE),,IF(ALERT("Sorry, can't open '"&source&"', so can't write Specs. Continue anyhow?",1),GOTO(I191), blank.close.halt()))
2. in the code, replace find.BM() with path.bidmagic
3. Make sure they didn't zap any commas in the text (hard to see in Win)
4. go to cell A1, then save the manager.
