Note...!

If you intend to continue to use a earlier version of LaunchPad, you need to save a backup of those schedule files. Once older version files are opened and saved with this version, the files will not be able to run with the older version. LaunchPad has  auto save ability so even if you did not intend to save them it is possible for them to be save anyways.

Enhancements

•	Added the ability to convert previous versions schedule files with the new version of the application. This ability will only work with files built with Version 1.02 and later.

•	The application is smaller in size and no longer require the use of external dll files. If you install to a existing directory where you have a older version of LaunchPad, you can delete dll files from that directory. We really recommend that you save your launchpd schedule files (*.lpd)

•	Have added tips and hints section for the help files. Here you can find a variety of information that we have gathered from users and testing.

•	Added status bar message to be displayed whenever "Enable Scheduling option is off. Also added status bar message for whenever scheduling has been suspended by a launched event.

•	Added the ability to specify a duration date and time for a event. This means you can schedule a event to be disabled after a desired date. See Duration Properties in the application help file.

•	Added "Interval" to the available scheduling options. By selecting this option you'll have the ability to specify at what frequency you want a event to launch. You'll be able to specify whether the interval is in minutes, hours, or days.

Fixes

•	Fix to some resheduling time problems that would not maintain the scheduled times in daily and hourly events.

•	Fix to the horizontal scroll bar cutting off some of the test on the display screen.
