The problem is that v99L and v1.1 use the same place in your registry. If the variable 'fish1' has the content 'lionfish' and you run v99L it won't be able to recognize that spot. It could be nice if Jim made an unknown fish name switch to 'RANDOM' automatically.
It's not really a bug the way I see it, just a slight incompatibility with using old versions after you use new versions. It's just making it harder for the programmer to change the folder in the registry every time he releases a new version.

Jim, you can use a constant string for all the places where you specify the location in the registry where you save the information and change that constant once for all the places where it's mentioned and solve any incompatibility problems. Just my 2 cents not too important though...
