What's New in Bughole 1.1.4

Version	Comments
1.1.4	Version 1.1.3 users who did not download the database that was pre-populated with shooter names will not be able to run Combination Agg reports. This was caused by a missing field in the CombinationAggReport table in the empty database. Version 1.1.4 corrects this problem by automatically adding the field if it is missing. If you already have version 1.1.3, you can get the update by downloading only the updated exe from the link above. After download you will need to unzip the file and copy it to your Bughole installation folder (normally C:\Program Files\Bughole), overwriting the existing Bughole.exe.
1.1.3	IMPORTANT! Starting with version 1.1.3, Bughole is no longer supported on Windows versions earlier than Windows XP. It also requires a minimum of 256 megabytes of ram. Don't try to run Bughole on a 10 year old computer running Windows 98 or Windows 2000! I just don't have time to deal with the problems .
1.1.3	IMPORTANT! Bughole database format has changed and Bughole 1.1.3 will not automatically upgrade a Bughole 1.0 database. There are a few folks with early copies of Bughole 1.1. Bughole 1.1.3 will automatically upgrade those databases. Bughole Setup will attempt to detect an existing Bughole installation. If an installation of Bughole 1.0 is detected, the installation folder of that older version will be renamed to Bughole_OLDVERSION before Bughole Setup installs version 1.1.3. If the existing installation is version 1.1.0001 or higher it will be upgraded in place. Your old shoot data will still be accessible by running the old version of Bughole directly from the Bughole_OLDVERSION folder (normally found under the Program Files folder). There is no way to convert Bughole 1.0 shoot data to Bughole 1.1 format.
1.1.3	Shoot data may now be exported and imported. The file extension for Bughole shoot data is “.bhl”. The old way of exporting shoot data to text files is still available, but the “Bughole Format” is now the default. Note that internally bhl files look sort of like XML, but they are not XML files (this is for you programmer types who might be tempted to import the files into an XML editor).
1.1.3	Report fonts have been changed and reports modified to fit more data on each page. The selected font, Estrangelo Edessa, is a standard font in Windows XP and Windows Vista. It is not shipped with Windows 2000 or Windows 98.
1.1.3	NBRSA tie breaking rules have been added for the following: - Agg Report - Small Group - Combination Agg Reports Ties are indicated by the letter T in the far right column along with a number indicating the results of the tie breaker calculation, for example if three shooters tie, the winner will be indicated by T1, second by T2 and third by T3. Ties for small group are determined by the shooter with the smallest agg, and the correct small group tie winner will be shown at the bottom of the agg report.
1.1.3	A new Flag Sharing window has been added to make assignment of shooters to flag sharing groups easier and less prone to error.
1.1.3	The Flag Sharing Signup list report now prints the shooters signed up for flag sharing. Previously it printed only a blank form for shooters to sign up.
1.1.3	Earlier versions of Bughole had a bug in the shooter pick list that would prevent some names from being visible when using progressive search. For example, in the shooter pick list you could type in the last name “Smith” and Howard Smith would not be in the list of displayed shooters. This bug has been fixed.
1.1.3	Alignment errors on the Mailing Label and Target Label reports have been corrected.
1.1.3	A new report has been added, Combination Agg By Competitor Number.
