2.2 Release - comments please

I think there is an intention to update the manual fully at some point, but Calico wanted to get the upgrade out rather than waiting for the full manual.

URL's from within

I suspect these would be better linked as multimedia objects. I do not think web links are supported specificly, the problem being that they go out of date so quickly. Personally I think you might be better saving the pages locally and linking them using multimedia. I can add support for html/web/ma...

A Couple of Questions

On the first one I suspect I had not been asked for, do you want it added to the list. Addresses tend to repeat less than Places so this may be the reason.

The Qtr I wondered if it was to make it easier for the program to treat Qtr Dates more easily.

Error condition with upgrade to 2.2.1

You should not lose the data you have input if you uninstall, just make sure you have a backup on a floppy disk or even in your my documents folder. Installing and re-installing should sort the problem. You might lose a few diagram settings, but that should be all. Just double check your user is at ...

Error condition with upgrade to 2.2.1

Could I suggest using Winzip to unzip the exe and then run the setup.exe directly.

Also double check your user is of Administration level.

It may also be worth redownloading the install, from the other site, just in case it is a corrupt download.

I find the wheel works in most places. As long as I ensure the 'focus' is on the list. eg click somewhere in the record window rather than in the position to box.

Another possibility for the original request is to use a List for all 'Private' people. Then create a query selecting all the people in the list and use the split tree option to make a new version of the file ready for upload.
