Stonefield Query for Act! version 4.3.4878

This release adds compatibility with the new Act! 2014 (16.0), as well as a few new features.

• Stonefield Query is now compatible with the new ACT! 2014 (16.0).
• More than 25 new sample reports have been added for use with ACT! 2010 and later databases.
• If you add "KeepLog=N" to Data.INI, Stonefield Query creates separate diagnostic files with a timestamp as part of the filename so individual logs are created for each run.
• You can now use detail header and footer bands in templates.
• Stonefield Query now creates a default filename when emailing reports.
• You can now specify what "mail mode" to use when emailing via SMTP. This is helpful if problems arise with some types of SMTP servers.
• Emailing each group in a report to separate email addresses now continues to send even if one or more of the addresses is invalid if the Continue Running Reports if Cannot Connect or One Report Fails setting is turned on in the Options dialog.
• Administrator users can now edit any report even if it has security so it's only accessible to one user.

Stonefield Query SDK Version 4.3.4878

• You can now use detail header and footer bands in templates.
• Stonefield Query now creates a default filename when emailing reports.
• You can now specify what "mail mode" to use when emailing via SMTP. This is helpful if problems arise with some types of SMTP servers.
• Emailing each group in a report to separate email addresses now continues to send even if one or more of the addresses is invalid if the Continue Running Reports if Cannot Connect or One Report Fails setting is turned on in the Options dialog.
• Administrator users can now edit any report even if it has security so it's only accessible to one user.
• The New Project Wizard now defaults to your Documents folder so projects are created there by default and adds the project name to that folder.
• French messages have been updated to the current version of Stonefield Query.

Stonefield Query for Sage ACT! Version 4.3

We are pleased to announce the release of version 4.3 of Stonefield Query for Sage ACT!. Here are the new features in this version.

• Stonefield Query for ACT! has been renamed to Stonefield Query for Sage ACT!, to match the latest naming convention of Sage ACT! itself.
• You can now create batch reports. A batch report automatically runs several reports, outputting each to the desired destination. This is handy if, for example, you normally run the same three reports at the end of every week. Rather than choosing them one at a time, you can create a batch report that combines those three reports and just run it. You can even schedule batch reports.
• You can now append the output of a report to an existing Microsoft Excel output file. In that case, the report appears in a new worksheet (tab) within the spreadsheet. This even works if the file is already open in Excel. You can also now choose XLSX or XLS as the extension for a Microsoft Excel output file.
• Turning on the new Start each group on a new page option for the first row field in a cross-tab report causes each group of records to appear on its own page. You can also now turn on the Output each group as a separate file and Output each group as a separate email settings so each group is output to its own file or email.
• The new Delimited - Microsoft Excel Format output type outputs to a comma-separated values (CSV) file but uses Excel formatting so things like leading zeros are preserved when the file is opened in Excel.
• Formulas are now stored in the same folder as reports (in a file named CalcFields.DBF) so if the program runs on a workstation but reports are shared on a server, so are the formulas. For backward compatibility, the program will still look for CalcFields in the Data subdirectory of the program folder so you won't lose your formulas, so this works better for new installations rather than existing ones.
• You can now enter a formatted SQL statement in the SQL Statement step of the Customize Report dialog. For example, carriage returns and tabs are now permitted. This makes it easier to take a SQL statement from another application and paste it into a report's SQL statement. Note that this change now requires you to prefix procedural code with "*-" if you want to use code rather than a SQL statement (a rare occurrence).
• Microsoft Excel full-format output works better now: the output has a single page header at the top of the document and a single page footer at the bottom rather than header/footer sections where the pages would normally break, and the use of empty columns and rows for positioning is minimized.
• Stonefield Query now handles font scripts other than Western, such as Cyrillic or Greek. You can select the desired script in the Font dialog that appears when you click the font button in the Field Properties dialog of a report wizard or in the Advanced Report Designer.
• Clicking the Add All or Remove All buttons in Step 2 of the report wizards now display a prompt asking you to confirm if you want to do that to prevent inadvertently adding all fields in a table to a report or removing all fields from a report.
• The application no longer erases the diagnostic log (Diagnostic.txt in the Data subdirectory of the program folder) if KeepLog=Y is in Data.INI. This is useful for checking diagnostics over multiple runs, such as for scheduled reports.
• You can now resize dashboard windows to a much smaller size than before.
• You can now edit a chart that's included in a quick report with an advanced layout. The Size page in Step 4 of the Chart Wizard is now disabled in that case, since you cannot change the chart size.
• You can now click the serial number in the About dialog (available from the Help menu) to copy your serial number to the clipboard. This makes it easier to enter the serial number when creating a ticket in our online support ticket system.
