Impact is an easy-to-use relational database system for RISC OS.
This upgrade is free to anyone who is using versions 3.32 to 3.34. Upgrade
prices for those who are on version 3.31 or earlier are shown on the web
site.
A full list of changes can be seen at
http://sinenomine.co.uk/software/impact/release-notes.html
There are several little bug fixes and a couple of new features which have
been specially developed following requests by users at the Wakefield Show.
These are:
* the ability to set the initial indexes/filters/field maps to be used when
opening a database, either by selecting specific ones or by remembering the
setting in force when the database was last closed; and a similar feature
for the record to be displayed.
* a new tool for copying complete databases, including exporting a copy
omitting the data, which can be useful for sharing database designs with
other Impact users.
Please note that to accommodate the above improvements, the database file
structure has had to be changed slightly, and databases which have been used
with version 3.35 will not open on older versions of Impact.
As usual, the manual is fully updated to reflect the changes, and with this
release many more of Impact's windows have help icons to take you straight
to the relevant pages of the manual.
