•••FileTrax 1.0ß is a beta version. This is the first release of the MAJOR update to 0.9 ß. So comments, criticisms, suggestion, ANYTHING is welcome input. There is a questionnaire form to help you rate the features of FileTrax and to tell me your ideas of what what works, what doesn't, and what would make FileTrax more productive for you. I promise that I will try and implement all of your good ideas into the next version of FileTrax, so don't think think that your opinions don't count! Even if you're not planning to use FileTrax, please fill out a questionnaire and tell me why not. Depending on how much response and new ideas I get(and I hope a lot!) the next version of FileTrax should be finished very shortly. I've spent a LOT of time on this, but don't think this is a finished product. On the contrary- I have just begun. So keep those comments and ideas coming! If you are impressed and can’t wait until the next version comes out you can pay the shareware fee now and you’ll be sent FileTrax 1.00 when it is complete. The shareware situation is as follows:
$10- You’ll receive all new versions of FileTrax via e-mail. And you’ll also receive the password to allow you to edit FileTrax.
$15- You’ll receive the latest version on disk via U.S. Mail and all other new versions in the future via e-mail(if you have an address). You’ll also receive the password to allow you to edit FileTrax.
$20- This is for people who live outside of the United States. Same as the $10 description, but the extra five dollars is for shipping costs.

•Added import/export features.
•Added a "go to straight" feature to the File Creator/Viewer layout so the user doesn't have to search to go right to a record.
