Hi all-- Just wanted to update you on Clooz 2 progress. I was hoping to get Clooz 2 released this week, but it's not going to happen. We're very close, however. We're really just cleaning up some details and working on the final setup. I really hope to have it out next week, but we'll see as I'm having some outpatient surgery on Monday. Anyway, it will be released very soon. The good news is that we've managed to get all of the U.S. population census reports into this version; others will follow. I dare say I'm more anxious than you all to get the program out there, as I want to use it! As I've said before, the initial release will be a download only, as not all of the reports have been included in the program yet. So, if you've purchased the upgrade or the full version, when the program is released you'll get an e-mail with your new serial number and download instructions. Anyone will be able to download Clooz 2, as it will be in demo mode initially. You'll have 30 days to register the program with your serial number. This serial number will be different than the one you already have for earlier versions of Clooz. You MUST register the program through the Register item on the Help menu to continue to work in it. The beta that's up on the website now will expire on 30 April. I'm not going to put another beta up. The next version will be the initial release. When the program is released, if you've downloaded the beta, please uninstall the beta and delete any databases you've created with the betas before installing the new version of Clooz. You WILL have to create new databases with the release version, as we've made changes to the database structure. I hope that everyone will enjoy the new version. I'm very anxious for it to get out as I have a bunch of data entry sitting waiting for its release!
