A bug in the table design form was preventing users from creating supplement tables. |

Could not add a new supplement name
The updated supplement table structure has been corrected. |

The HTML report has been corrected and the default template updated. |
| Issue: Collecting Book |
Copy Previous Record and Copy from Template
There is now an option to select whether or not to include the species name fields when copying from the previous record or from a template |
| Issue: Florabase Integration |
Photos and Maps not working
The photo and map working functionality has now been corrected. |
Version 3.2.0.230 - 05 April 2011
| Master List Restructure |

Family code has been deprecated and replaced with the new Family Name Identifier. |
Version 3.1.7.225 - 02 August 2010
| ISSUE-0000926 |
Installation Focus
Registration details dialog box in the installation problem did
not always show in front of the main installation screen. |
| ISSUE-0001933 |
Coordinate data entry in collecting book issues
Entering co-ordinates in UTM produced a shift in the co-ordinates
when converted to decimal degrees. The collecting book currently
only stores co-ordinates in decimal degree format, but will be
updated later to store the co-ordinates as entered by the user.
In the mean time the co-ordinate conversion routines have been
revised so that there is no shift in the co-ordinates when
converting between decimal degrees and UTM. |
| ISSUE-0001051 |
Name Changes report in MAX 3
Users can now specify if they want to see just names that have
been added to the master list, rather than including any name
updates. |
| ISSUE-0001069 |
Ctrl-D wierdness after re-ordering columns?
If columns in a data table had been re-orderd, using Ctrl+D (copy
from the field in the previous record) produced unexpected results. |
| ISSUE-0001071 |
Copy record plant name
Re-instated the context menu for the full species name displayed at
the top of both the data table and collecting book forms. |
| ISSUE-0001068 |
Page on Modifying reports contains typo
Fixed. |
| ISSUE-0000943 |
Duplicate Record doesn't copy all fields.
Species name fields were deliberately not being copied when
duplicating a collecting book record. This has been modified so
that now they are. |
| ISSUE-0000938 |
Autopopulate of collecting book record
Confusion relating to the fact that the collecting book setting
is table specific. This setting has been added to the table
design form to make it more obvious to the user. |
| ISSUE-0001002 |
Copy Previous Field / Record oddness
Copying the previous field was not consistent depending on whether
the user had pressed the Insert key to get a new record in a data
table, rather then clicking the + button on the navigation bar.
Functionality between the two has now been made the same. |
Version 3.1.2.215 - 3 October 2005
| ISSUE-0000963 |
Species name does not display when scrolling through MySQL database table
This error was caused by the MySQL ODBC driver not being configured properly. The options "Don't Optimize Column Width" and "Return Matching Rows" need to be select in the MySQL ODBC DSN Configuration. |
| ISSUE-0000961 |
Access violations after using Alt+M for Data Links connections
The more information dialog box was producing access violations when connected to a non-microsoft access database. These have been corrected. This problem was probably introduced when fixing ISSUE-0000930. Errors also occurred when scrolling through a query result set. |
Version 3.1.1.212 - 19 September 2005
| ISSUE-0000951 |
Save Changes before creating User-Defined Fields in a Collecting Book
If the current record in a collecting book was being edited when
the user clicked on the "Add Field" button on the last page of
the collecting book, then any pending changes were lost. The
current changes are now posted to the database before allowing
the user to add a new field. A similar issue applied to
switching between form view and datasheet view, with the same resolution. |
| ISSUE-0000945 |
Can't import data table
If the user was trying to import a Microsoft Access table that
contained a boolean field, refered to as a Yes/No field in
Microsoft Access, then an exception was produced. Max was not
correctly recognising this type of field in the source table,
so could not create the destination table for the data. |
| ISSUE-0000942 |
Add button for creating supplemental name
A button has been added to the toolbar to give the users a quick
method of adding a name to the supplement table. |
| ISSUE-0000941 |
File name not displayed on label
There is an option on the print labels dialog box for the filename
to be displayed on the label. This had no effect. Now when the
user selects this option the name of the Microsoft Access
database is added to the bottom of the label, followed by the
name of the collecting book in brackets. |
| ISSUE-0000937 |
Ctrl T doesn't work if Copy From Tempate is not already selected
A new function has been added to the collecting book where the
user can populate details of the record from the template
database by selecting from a list of values. Ctrl T initiates the
process. Several issues were encountered during the development
of this process, all of which are now resolved. |
| ISSUE-0000935 |
Precision of GDA coords is only 3 decimal places
The existing coordinate conversion from geographical to UTM
coordinates was rounding the UTM coordinates to 3 decimal places.
This rounding has now been removed. |
| ISSUE-0000936 |
Disable autoincrement on collector number in template
When entering new records into the collecting book template
table, the collector number was being incremented. This should
not have been occurring and has been fixed. |
| ISSUE-0000933 |
Creating a new table
When the user creates a new table from the table design form,
they are prompted to enter a name for the new table. If a table
already existed with the same name then an exception occurred.
Now a check is done to see if there is a table with the specified
name and if so the user is prompted to replace the existing
table. If they choose not to do so, they are returned to the
dialog box where they can specify a different table name. |
| ISSUE-0000932 |
Null values in drop down boxes of collecting book
There are several fields in the collecting book where the user
enters the value via a drop down list. Originally there was no
null or empty value in the list if the user wanted to clear
the value of the field. Pressing the Delete key whilst the
control had focus worked, but was not obvious. A blank entry
has now been added to the top of the list to clear the field. |
| ISSUE-0000930 |
Name status line not updating
The status line for secondary name identifier fields was not
updating properly if the master list for the secondary name
was different to the primary name identifier. The name for
the secondary name identifier was being looked up in the
wrong master list. |
| ISSUE-0000928 |
Max update and evaluation serial numbers
The Max update utility would not update the users version of
Max if they were using an evaluation serial number. This has
now been changed. |
| ISSUE-0000927 |
Access violation on updating Max
The Max update utility produced an exception if Max was not
already installed on the users machine. Now the user is notified
that they need to install Max before running any updates. The
utility then terminates cleanly. |
| ISSUE-0000798 |
Max Files are dropping the 0 (zero) at the beginning of the Bar
Code number
The CSV export files for used to import the data into WAHERB
were being incorrectly produced with the leading zeros on the
sheet number field. |
