Depends on your COM/OS. I would say FACT if its 3.5, and FICTION for
pre-3.5. Post 3.5 supposedly works great, but our 3.5Beta's that were to
fix the framing problem (actually it was a problem with the lmi
sequencing) never worked for us, so we replaced them. Livingston
acknowledged the bug in the 3.5 initial release.
