Hi,
The TableLog component should have 3 settings tabs: General, Logging, and Advanced. There are no known bugs which affect the table log in local mode, only the mentioned problem with distribution, for which a fix will be available shortly. I'd recommend against downgrading to 1.5, as there are known issues with several of the Components that have been or will be fixed in 2.0. From what you're describing it sounds like there may be an issue preventing components from correctly loading. What about if you create a brand new Project, and add the components there. Do they function any differently? If so it might be an issue with your project file. In that case, would it be possible for you to send the file to us so that we can investigate it?
