What's New In This Release

Version 2.0 contains the following new features, improvements and bug fixes:

  • New feature: Scheduled items are kept in your CyberSecretary's schedule folder in Microsoft Outlook.  This makes it possible to schedule items on any recurring basis supported by Microsoft Outlook (e.g. weekdays, multiple days of the week, ordinal days of the month and year, etc.).  It also makes it easier to edit scheduled items.  Scheduled items can also be deactivated without deleting them, and a record is kept of the last time each task was performed.
  • New feature: "Customize Me" dialog can be used to change the name and gender of your CyberSecretary.
  • Improved:  Speed of program start-up has been improved.  After the first launch, only the calendar is shown before the Inbox; Contacts are shown only if the user has selected a voice mail greeting.
  • New feature:  The program by default installs GREETING.TXT, a reminder to change your voice mail greeting.
  • Improved:  Uninstallation does not delete any files in program folder which are not associated with CyberSecretary.
  • Improved:  Installation performs proper version checking for common system libraries.
