| New Features - Build 24 | ||
| 1. Outlook 2007 is now supported. | ||
| 2. The feature that suppresses the Outlook security warning message now works with Outlook 2007. | ||
| 3. When setting the value of a report filter item, there is now a drop-down list that will display a list of all the unique data values that are contained in this field in the database making it easy to choose the value that you want to filter on. | ||
| 4. When setting the value of a report filter item for the SalesRep field, you can now choose from a list that will display a list of all User Groups. This will make it easy to set one filter item that filters on a group of Sales Reps like | ||
| 5. The PDF files that QuoteWerks generates automatically detects web site URL strings and flags them as hyperlinks that you can click on when viewing the PDF document. Previously only hyperlinks at beginning of sentences would be detected. Now, this feature has been improved to automatically hyperlink web site URL strings embeded anywhere inside a sentence. | ||
| 6. Added new product import option "Remove leading & trailing spaces from all field data". This is useful when importing data that comes from a system that considers the unused characters in a field as spaces (such as an Ingram Micro text file). | ||
| 7. On the File|Open window, the search results are now limited based on the document rights that have been assigned to the logged in user. Also when performing a product price history search, the results will also be limited by the document rights. | ||
| 8. Added Misc Access right "CannotReportOnDataUserCannotView". If this right is set for a user, then any document reports the user runs will be limited to documents that the user has the right to view. | ||
| 9. When on the Product Lookup Window the ToolTip displayed while hovering over a product now displays 20 seconds instead of 3 seconds. | ||
| 10. When a License Key was not yet registered and the user did not have the rights to access the Utlities|License Manager menu, the user would have to wait until the day that the 30 day grace period expired before they had a chance to register the License Key. Now, each day they receive the registration reminder, they will have the option to register the License Key. | ||
| 11. The QuoteWerks Help system has been converted to browser based HTML help. This format is supported on all versions of Windows and offers greater flexibility and functionality. | ||
| 12. The PDF Generator is now installed during the node setup rather than upon first use by a user running QuoteWerks. This will make it easier to make sure the PDF Generator installs correctly in an environment where regular users do not have Administrator rights or rights to install printers. | ||
| 13. When importing products and using the "Auto Create Folders" option the speed has been improved to take up to 50% less time by optimizing the creation of folders. | ||
| 14. All grids now have the tooltip hovering feature and Multi-line data can now be viewed in tooltip hover for all grids. | ||
| 15. When adding new records that are displayed on a grid, the newly added record is now selected instead of the first record in the grid. | ||
| 16. When editing records that are displayed on a grid, and the edit triggers a re-positioning for the grid (for sorting purposes) the edited record will be re-selected after the re-positioning instead of the first record in the grid being selected. | ||
| 17. When deleting a record that is displayed on a grid, the record below the deleted record will now be selected after the delete process instead of the first record in the grid. | ||
| 18. The DEL key can now be used to delete a record in any grid. | ||
| 19. When editing a required item, optional item, bundle item, or configuration item and changing the Source Database for the item, the description display is now updated immediately on that screen using the description from the selected database. | ||
| 20. Added new command line parameter "/shutdown". This is used when you want to force QuoteWerks stop running. This is particularly useful if you need to make sure that QuoteWerks is not running before you run some other process like a file backup or behind the scenes manipulation of QuoteWerks data. This command line can be used like "qw4.exe /shutdown". If QuoteWerks is not running, then it will start briefly and then shutdown. If it is running, then it will be shutdown. It is important to note that this command line parameter is designed to make sure QuoteWerks stops running. As such, if there are any open documents in the running instance of QuoteWerks, they will not be saved. | ||
| 21. If the /c: or /t: command line parameters are detected and there is no currently open document, QuoteWerks will create a new default document. | ||
| 22. When closing the Product Lookup window, any open connections to Excel Product Data Sources will be closed enabling you to edit these Excel spreadsheets without having to exit QuoteWerks. | ||
| 23. When right clicking on a row in the Product Lookup Window grid, the row will now become the selected row. | ||
| 24. When right clicking on a row in the Document Items grid, the row will now become the selected row. | ||
| Misc Features - Build 24 | ||

| 4. In preparation for Windows Vista support, removed TList warning message when running on Windows Vista. | ||
| 5. In preparation for Windows Vista support, corrected unable to connect password issue on Windows Vista with product databases that were hosted on SQL Server that required a password. Similar issue also occurred with Configurator "Login Failed for user 'xx'. | ||
| 6. In preparation for Windows Vista support, Fixed window sizing issues on Vista for zoom, email signature editing, product lookup window, Open Document, Configuration Setup, Print Preview, Layout Designer, View Log, Edit Exchange Rate, Show Results With Log, and SalesLogix Opportunity windows. | ||
| 7. On the Send E-Mail window when typing in a long email address, the elipsis button no longer covers the text. | ||
| 8. When performing an operation that requires no other users be logged into QuoteWerks, the message will now display all the users that are currently logged in. | ||
| 9. When creating an attachment record in MS CRM, the note has now been modified to read "Right click on the attachment file and select Open to open the QuoteWerks document." since the positioning of the note relative to the attachment has changed. | ||
| 10. Changed the retrieval of the Windows Time Zone information to support Unicode. | ||
| 11. PDF drivers now include 64-bit drivers. | ||
| 12. The pipe character '|' is no longer stripped from text data when saving data to the database. | ||

| 10. When running QuoteWerks on machines with a large horizontal resolution, the width of the main QuoteWerks window would resize to be about 60% of the width of the screen. When decreasing the width of this window, the width you reduced the window to would not be remembered the next time you started QuoteWerks and the width would again be reset to about 60% the width of the screen. | ||
| 11. In the Configurator setup, when creating a link between selection containers the drop down combo would contain an empty item for each navigation only branch. | ||
