What's New in This Release:
· Encryption Password Caching - When you open a database, the password you entered is optionally remembered and then used for subsequent saves/closes of the database. This reduces chance of user entering a wrong password when re-encrypting and is also far more convenient to use.
· Auto Close Feature - Optionally set program to auto close all open databases when there is no activity for some time. When used with the Encryption Password Caching option, this means any encrypted databases would also be reencrypted and then closed.
· 128 bit encryption - Now encrypts with 128 bit Safer-SK encryption for increased security and tamper proofing.
· Second prompt when setting password - Now when you have the password prompt set to hide the password, it will confirm your password before accepting.
· Memory Card Databases syncing - Support for syncing databases stored in memory cards within HanDBase Conduit.
· Microsoft Vista support - for syncing with Vista's Mobile Device Center
· Category support - for databases stored on memory cards.
· Scroll Bar in List View - for faster navigation of large databases
· Improved 5-way/One Handed Navigation - most all screens including forms can be navigated with one hand.
· Filter floating dates - When filtering on dates, you can now filter on a date that is based off the current date, like 'This Month', 'Next X days', or 'Today' and hence see only the records that match based on the current date.
