*****************************************************
Version 2.3 brings a better and more attractive user
interface, Internet additions and bug fixes.
NEW! New Look&Feel
--------------------------------------------------------
Toolbars, many details in various sections and dialog
boxes have all been redesigned, and new sound effects and
colors added etc. RedBox is even more attractive than before
and brings about a new atmosphere.
NEW! Windows Color scheme
--------------------------------------------------------
If you change color schemes in your Windows system,
RedBox v2.3 will properly accept the selected color schemes.
NEW! Internet Book
--------------------------------------------------------
Internet Book is a useful addition which searches and
attaches records from RedBox Address Book which contain
Internet strings i.e. e-mail addresses, Web pages and Call
numbers. Internet Book can also easily perform search for
this data, send e-mails, start Web browser and dial up
telephobne numbers. If you keep a lot of Internet strings
in RedBox then Internet Book will be of great use. You can
start it by clicking on the new icon on the small Toolbar.
NEW! HTML Wizard
--------------------------------------------------------
Complete export of data in HTML format is now done in a
Wizard. It is now possible to publish data from two more
sections of RedBox, To Do and Planner. User will now be able
to put all records from RedBox on Internet and share it
will his business associates from all around the world.
Fixed: Import in Adress Book
--------------------------------------------------------
A nasty bug which occurs during import of Address Book
records from Lotus Organiser and Sidekick to RedBox Address
Book has now been fixed. A big thanks to all users who
switched from these two organisers to RedBox and for
reporting the bug.
Fixed: Call Notes
--------------------------------------------------------
In certain situations, RedBox malfunctioned during entry
of data into Call Notes and crashed when those records
were deleted. This bug has now been fixed.
Fixed: Monthly Recurring
--------------------------------------------------------
Bug which used to happen during entry of Monthly (Days)
Recurring Type records in Calendar section has now been
eliminated.
*****************************************************
* RedBox v2.2 for Microsoft Windows 95/98/NT *
*****************************************************
NEW! Publish Address Book Records to the Web
--------------------------------------------------------
In version 2.1, it was possible to make Web presentations
for data from the Calendar section. Version 2.2, here in
front of you, allows you to make Web presentations for
records from Address Book. This means that, by putting
your Address Book Web presentation on a server, you will
be able to share data from Address Book with anyone in
the world who has access to Internet or your Intranet
local network.
NEW! Send e-mail from Address Book
--------------------------------------------------------
If there is an e-mail address at any field in the Address
Book, default e-mail client will be started by clicking
once on an e-mail address. RedBox Address Book has now
become a convenient place for recording all your e-mail
addresses. Possibility to link Address Book records which
contain e-mail addresses with data from other sections of
RedBox, is a feature which is not available in any e-mail
client application on the market. Maybe this is the reason
why you should use RedBox as your default Address Book from
now on. Combining RedBox with your favourite e-mail client
will definitely enable you to work in a better, more
efficient and more flexible manner.
NEW! Make phone calls from Address Book
--------------------------------------------------------
If there is a phone number at any field in the Address
Book, default phone client will be started by clicking
once on the phone number.
NEW! Change Default View
--------------------------------------------------------
It is now possible to select a section of RedBox you want
to appear by default when you start RedBox.
Menu: Options/General Options
NEW! New look & feel toolbars
--------------------------------------------------------
Small and big toolbars have been redesigned and new icons
have been drawn. Toolbars now have a better look & feel.
Fixed: Starting default browser
--------------------------------------------------------
Starting default browser has been improved and it does
not cause problems during operation of the program.
Fixed: Default Address Book field
--------------------------------------------------------
When you create a new user, two types of address book
appear in the Address Book: friends and business. Default
fields contained in those two types of address book consist
of e-mail and url adresses and phone numbers. This could
help you in creating a new Internet address book when you
create a new user. If you are not satisfied with the fields
offered by RedBox itself, go to Options/Address Book and
fill in default types of address book.
