DATA FILES
-----------------------------------------------
created XSL template file, see addt'l test ideas




TEST NOTES
-----------------------------------------------
 
check menu options and help file, no merge option available

check import menu to bring in existing maps
no method to merge

collapse map, copy and bring one map into another
this creates nodes on map - not a merger of the two


discovered fold all does not work on map where all nodes are images
Bug # 3


discovered cannot edit map in word if map open in MM


attempt to import export XSL template file
encounters null pointer exception

same error encountered on attempt to import excel file
Bug #4


merge maps options
  


found XSL format
copied from site, saved in notepad as XSL file
exported map using XSL as template

Bug #5

- firefox also hung, had to kill

Bug #6
