Prior to Showcase Client version 7.10, global variables were stored in the Vista.sav file, which was stored as ANSI. In ShowCase Client version 7.10 (Unicode release) and higher, this file is now known as Vista.savu and is required to be stored as Unicode. The problem that may arise is when multiple clients share the same vista.sav file within a network environment.
ShowCase 7.1 clients will only recognize the vista.savu file and previous versions of ShowCase clients will only recognize the vista.sav file.
To have ALL PC's use the same global variables, then ALL PC's must have the same ShowCase Client version installed. Otherwise, any updates made to a global variable by a ShowCase 7.1 client will not be seen by a previous ShowCase client version.
