APRIL182012BETSIv1.0.91.00
A small handful of MAC users experienced what appeared to be a lock-up during Sync'ing. In fact there is a Silverlight Runtime bug (MAC only) causing the code to run

it is now functional.

It happens to the best of us ... We had a Gremlin (small problem) that was difficult to track down...
A small percentage of edge cases where after BETSI was installed, a 'Registration' Error would appear when the app was started. This problem was not stopping BETSI from working but gave a wrong indication of the problem.

This problem is now resolved.
