VB AHA!!! History

Version  Description
-------  -----------
 1.31    ***REGISTERED VERSION ONLY***
         Added: Full macro support. It's still crude (you must type them
           in) and you will need a reference that covers the winhelp
           macros. I will GREATLY improve on this after I finish the RTF
           importing.
           NOTE: among other things you can use macros to play MIDI and
             AVI files from your help file (and others I'm sure).
         Added: Your "Build Options" are now also saved in each .AHA file
           so you wont have to worry about what options you had selected
           for that project, they will be automatically reset.
         Added: More predrawn "bullets" for use in combo fields.
         Added: New field menu item "Load Text". It will allow you to
           read a text file into a field with the option of reformatting
           it for a help file (no returns in the middle of a paragraph
           etc...).
         Added: Improved keyboard support while editing a topic (using
           the arrow keys to move between fields, Page Up and Page Down
           and others).
         Added: Shift + Right click on a field brings up Setup window.
         Added: Build option to use the default Windows Popup/Jump colors
           for all links (Popup/JumpTo fields and Global Text Links).
-------  -----------
 1.23    Changed: some new info in README.TXT and the online help,
           including among others, how to register with a credit card.
         Changed: I'm not giving any special pricing deals other than
           site licensing anymore. They're not worth the hassle to me and
           they're not fair to credit card customers as they can't get
           them.
         Fixed: File|Save As... now places the filename into the file
           history list like File|Open... does.
         Fixed: problem loading some .TPC files that were saved with a
           version prior to 1.20.
         Fixed: a couple of minor code optimizations/fixes.
-------  -----------
         ***LAST SHAREWARE VERSION FEATURE UPGRADE***
           All shareware versions released after 1.22 will only have bug
             fixes.
-------  -----------
 1.22    Added: Export Pascal header (constants) files.
         Added: You may now select a filename for your exported header
           files (Visual Basic, C/C++, Pascal).
         Added: A border is now drawn around the currently selected field.
         Added: .AHA files may now be assoctiated with VB AHA!!! from the
           File Manager.
         Added: Field Type display in the Topic window, that says what
           type the currently selected field is.
         Added: A "Most Recent Files" section to the File menu. VB AHA!!!
           now keeps a list of the last four projects for easy loading.
         Added: A "Most Recent Files" section to the Build menu.
           VB AHA!!! now keeps a list of the last four help files you've
           compiled so you can easily test them.
         Added: Option to disable the 3D effects used in all the windows
           throughout VB AHA!!!.
         Changed: Will now stay minimized during the entire Build process
           if you have selected the "Min. During Build" option (used to
           only stay minimized while the support files were being
           generated).
         Changed: Decreased size of .AHA files. Estimated savings of 12%.
         Fixed: "Graphics Directory" in the "Help Project Setup" window
           now works correctly.
         Fixed: Layout window doesn't reflect changes made in open topic
           windows. Now all topics will be closed before the layout is
           constructed.
         Fixed: Build support files didn't relect changes made in open
           topic windows. Now all topics are closed before the support
           files are written.
         Fixed: Problem with certain windows switching focus to other
           windows/applications has been ELIMINATED (I hope ;-).
         Fixed: Fields will now resize when the Topic window is maximized.
         Fixed: Only one reference to a bitmap will be placed in the .hpj
           file (used to put one reference per occurence in your project).
         Fixed: No browse sequences will be generated when the Build
           option "Default Layout" is unselected (used to still write a
           browse sequence to a topic that didn't have one).
         Fixed: Large projects now load MUCH faster.
         Fixed: Special characters (ASCII > 127) would generate a space
           after them in the RTF file.
         Fixed: Special characters can now be used in global text links.
         Fixed: VB AHA!!! only generates a "dummy" secondary window when
           you don't define any secondary windows since there is a limit
           of 6 secondary windows in a .hlp file.
         Fixed: All non-Topic windows (except the main window) would
           disappear when the main window was resized.
         Fixed: Pictures may now be placed in the non-scrolling region
           of a topic.
         Fixed: Other bugs that I lost track of.
-------  -----------
 1.21    Added: Ability to Jump To a topic in another help file.
         Added: New link type - Sound. You may now play .WAV files from
           your help file.
         Added: Secondary window support. Your help file may have two
           windows open at a time.
         Added: Many window formatting options (background color for
           normal and non-scrolling regions, window dimensions and
           whether the window will float above all others.
         Fixed: Correctly Open/Save Visual Basic forms HelpContextId's.
           It would skip the controls after the first one that didn't
           have a HelpContextID (as defined in Visual Basic Options).
         Fixed: Would switch link types for graphics when you viewed a
           topic.
         Fixed: Global Text Links that link with text with a return or
           tab after the it will now link correctly.
         Fixed: Topic window will now follow your typing and when you
           first create a field it's text will be selected. 
-------  -----------
 1.20    Added: New field type - Combo. You may have graphics and text
           on the same line. Many formatting options.
         Added: New field type - Non-Scrolling region. All fields above
           this one in a topic won't scroll in your help file.
         Added: You may now set the default bitmap to be used in a
           graphic field.
         Changed: .BMP links may now be either JumpTo or Popup instead
           of just JumpTo.
         Changed: There is no longer a different setup menu item for the
           different types of fields. The new menu item is just called
           Setup.
         Changed: Topic limit - you can now have at least 3000 topics.
           I don't know the exact limit because I got tired of adding
           new topics. The only real limitation on the number on topics
           you may have is that of a listbox (64k for topic names and
           5440 items or less) and the amount of memory your computer
           has.
         Fixed: Global Topic Rename didn't quite work right. It would
           lose your topic.
-------  -----------
 1.14    Fixed: Mistakenly thought all VB .FRM's were in binary format
           when you tried to save to them.
         Fixed: When you cut and then paste a field the link will be
           retained if it has one.
-------  -----------
 1.13    Added: Cut, Copy and Paste to the Field menu. These work on the
           whole field (text or graphics) not just the text in the
           field. All of the formatting, text, graphic info is retained.
         Added: Delete menu item to the Field menu (shown when you right
           click on a field).
         Fixed: Should always be able to tell if a Visual Basic .FRM is
           saved in binary or text format and refuse to load/save it if
           it's not in text format.
         Fixed: Field formatting numbers with a decimal place are now
           handled correctly in all countries.
         Changed: Moved the stats in the info window to the About
           VB AHA!!!... window.
-------  -----------
 1.12    Added: Option to backup your VB .FRM's before saving the
           HelpContextID info to them.
         Added: Option to not show a new topic when you create it.
         Added: Information window - displays # of topics, free mem and
           % of resources remaining.
         Fixed: VB AHA!!! would crash when you created the 75th topic.
           Now it will handle 992 topics.
-------  -----------
 1.11    Added: Global Topic Rename - all links to the old topic name
           will automatically be relinked to the new topic name.
         Fixed: Something will alway be shown in a graphic field. Before
           if it couldn't find the picture it might not show anything.
         Fixed: You may now use "\", "{" and "}" in your topics without
           wreaking havoc on your help file. Topic Titles and Keywords
           may now contain any characters.
         Fixed: You can't create 2 topics with the same name anymore, a
           number will be appended to the end of the second topic name.
 -----    ---------
 1.1     Added: Generic Topics and Template support.
           Save a topic to a seperate .tpc file and load that topic
           into any .AHA help project.
         Added: Global Text Links may now be case sensitive.
         Fixed: Failed to save some projects correctly, caused an
           error when saving and loading.
         Fixed: Text links(Jump To and Popup) may now be any color
           that you choose, you can even have each one a different
           color if you want to, instead of just the default color.
         Fixed: If you don't enter a filename extension in the file
           dialogs the correct default extension will always be used.
