WHAT'S NEW WITH THE SUCCESS ESTIMATING SYSTEM

New Features in Success4 Version 4.2

• Success now fully supports Seagate Software's Crystal Report Writer.
  
• Success contains a fully integrated ODBC driver (SuccessODBC) for printing reports created with the Crystal Report Writer. Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) provides a universal database connectivity application-programming interface (API) that enables applications to directly access Success project data.
  
• A reporting option allows you to turn off the output of DBF print tables. The print tables are no longer needed when printing reports that use the SuccessODBC driver.
• Added a "Recently used file list" option to the Tools  -> General tab, allowing for 0 to 9 files to be listed on the File menu.
  
• Added the Move Up/Down buttons to the default toolbar.
  
• Added a Tools/Options area for setting a backup folder.
  
• Added a feature in the Tools/Options area to specify default entry fields when creating a new category record. This new features adds the ability to specify a default value for each field in each category when the user adds a new record to that category type.
  
• Improved the Project Update to import summary and custom properties from existing project. Added "All" and "None" buttons for easier update option selections.
  
• Added the ability to add or delete the default fields in the File -> Properties -> Custom tab.
  
• Added the ability to add custom buttons to the Success toolbar which is similar to the function found in Microsoft Word or Excel. This includes the capability to create a custom button to attch custom information( for example,a Marco, Excel spreadsheet, Word document, Success project or database, etc.)
  
• The results from TakeoffTool takeoff may be sent to a variable, thereby allowing a single takeoff object to target multiple takeoff quantities.

• Multiple copies of each popup viewer can be displayed.
  
• The script editor (available only if AutomationTool has been purchased) has a new button to access the reference guide for AutomationTool.
