What's New/Fixed/Changed in Version 1.6
NEW - Moved ledger to separate window so that multiple accounts may be opened
simultaneously.
NEW - added checking routine to ET_Month to ensure that et_fixed isn't
processed more than once at the start of a new calendar month (in case the
system is booted twice on the first).
NEW - added a routine to ET_Month to ensure that et_fix.dat is generated for
each new month, in case the user doesn't boot OS/2 on the first of the month.
NEW - Accelerators for the Reconcile and Delete menu items in the ledger
window.
NEW - User-defined digits (see Setting Digits in help).
NEW - INF-like help (crude, but effective) with semi-context-sensitive help.
NEW - Fields in the credit / debit window now change their background colour
whenever a field has the focus.
NEW - User-defined behaviour for the <Enter> key in the credit / debit window
(either selects 'OK' or tabs to next field).
NEW - an 'Income tax category' checkbox in the credit / debit window.
NEW - E-Teller Report can now create reports of income-tax related transactions
only.
FIX - potential bug in selecting balance adjustment in reconciliation if
there is only one transaction in the ledger.
FIX - typo in reconciliation dialogbox.
FIX - the reconciliation toggle button would not return to its depressed
state when selecting 'Cancel' from the discrepancy dialog box.
FIX - the fixed day-of-week transactions may have been inadvertently removed
from et_fixed.dat when adding a fixed date-of-month transaction.
FIX - a potential et_month problem in updating cheque numbers on transactions
which occur more than once a month.
CHANGE - rewrote comma code to support unlimited commas.
CHANGE - integrated progress bar into the ledger window (separate window was
too obtrusive)
CHANGE - Cleared toggle button is depressed if user chooses not to save after
reconciliation.
CHANGE - Removed the back/forecolor window. Neat, but took up too much
valuable code real estate to warrant its existance. User can still set the
background colour only of the ledger and accounts containers only.
CHANGE - Removed the set ledger font window, but it is still possible to set
the font of the ledger container.
CHANGE - Cycling through the date in the credit/debit window now recognizes
leap years.
CHANGE - Removed the window associated with et_month (messages went by far
too quickly to be of any real use).
CHANGE - 'Entries' menu item in the ledger window to 'Transactions'
--------------------------------------------------------------------
What's New/Fixed in Version 1.5
NEW - more intelligent and dependable Quicken file conversion program (now an
.exe).
NEW - added comma support for amounts (stops at 999,999,999.00 since Rexx
begins to use exponents after that).
NEW - fixed transactions are now more intelligent and can be set for specific
weekdays and one of four frequencies - weekly, biweekly, triweekly, and
monthly.
NEW - ET_Month now keeps track of the last cheque (if applicable) and prompts
the user to enter the next cheque number at the start of each calendar month
if the 'Prompt for next cheque number' checkbox is checked in the 'Fixed
Transaction' window.
NEW - added progress bar for reading, and saving transactions.
NEW - added a 'Recalculate' item in the 'Entries' menu to force a
recalculation
NEW - added mnemonics to the accounts and ledger groupboxes for quick
switching.
NEW - various *.dat files are now reduced to three: number.dat, info.dat,
and category.dat (unchanged).
NEW - editing et_fix.dat and et_fixed.dat is now handled separately.
NEW - added an error handling routine in case something goes wrong when
reading account files.
NEW - dispensed with the transaction count when reading cleared and uncleared
transactions to speed up the reading/formatting process.
NEW - the recalculation routine is called when reading uncleared transactions
rather than having the running balance updated for each record read - speeds
up the reading/formatting process.
FIX - fixed an erroneous (and harmless) message about an account not having a
filename associated with it when saving the account after reconciling.
FIX - the balance column was not made visible after successfully reconciling
the account.
FIX - if deleted transactions are displayed and user saves account, the
undeleted transactions are first displayed (to prevent *only* the deleted
transactions from being saved).
FIX - fixed an error whereby the string 'day' would be saved for fixed
transactions rather than the actual date.
FIX - fixed a bug whereby coming back from undeleting would not recalculate
the balance.
FIX - fixed a mysterious bug in editing fixed transactions.
FIX - think I fixed a mysterious lockup in credit/debit window
FIX - fixed a buglet in the pre-reconcilition routine.
(reported by S. John Banner)
FIX - fixed a bug whereby bogus pay to.../details data would be saved to the
number.dat file.
FIX - tabbing from the Number combo-box in the credit/debit window now fills
in all of the various fields with previously saved data.
FIX - the amount field in the credit/debit window now has the descriptive
text 'Amount' attached to it, so pressing Alt-a moves user directly to that
field.
FIX - the balance would not be recalculated when going from a non-sorted to a
sorted display.
FIX - routines have been added to ensure that multiple instances of the same
window aren't loaded.
