By: bsTech (BurnSoft TechSupport)
On: 9/13/2008 10:27:03 PM

Version 3.0 of the My Gun Collection Application is now available to download.    Registered users will be able to run the Application Updater to get the new version.  Upgrades to this application are free so you will not be charged to take advantage of the new features.  We do recommend that you backup your database before running the update. 

Here is a list of what has been added and fixed in version 3.0

  1. Ability to set the default image for the For Sale Flyer. No longer is the first picture the default Display picture.
  2. Added New C&R Bound Book Report. It's the same style as the Bound Book Report Except it will only pick out the Firearms that are C&R Qualified.
  3. Changed the All the Reports to have the Sorting Option at the Top of the Report
  4. Added the Ability to Sort the Insured by Purchase Price Reports by Price, Caliber, Custom Catalog No. and Type.
  5. Added the Ability to Sort the Insured by Insured Price Reports by Price, Caliber, Custom Catalog No. and Type.
  6. Added the Ability to Sort the Insured by Appraised Value Reports by Price, Caliber, Custom Catalog No. and Type.
  7. Added the Ability to Sort the Bound Book Reports by Normal, C & R Only, Custom Catalog No., Purchase Date, Brand, Caliber, Type, and Gun Shop
  8. Added the ability to sort the Wish List Reports by Normal, Manufacturer, Place To Buy, Qty., and Value
  9. Changed the Sort Options for the Ammunition Reports from the Main Menu to the Sorting Option at the Top of the Report. Now you can select how you want it sort from the same window.
  10. Added the ability to sort the Quick Inventory Report By Default, Manufacturer, Type, and Caliber
  11. Added the ability to sort the Maintenance Report By Default, Operation Performed, Operation Date, Operation Due Date, and Rounds Fired.
  12. Added the ability to sort the Gun Smith Report By Default, Gun Smith, Ship Date, and Receive Date.
  13. Added the ability to sort your gun collection in the main window by C & R and Non C & R
  14. Added the ADODB.DLL to the Setup program to resolve issues on some machines when you attempt to add a picture to the database.
  15. Added a new setting called "Backup on Exit". This way when you exit the application it will start the backup program automatically. This is to ensure that your last backup is the most current.
  16. Set Auto Suggest feature for Stock/Grip Type, Storage Location, Sights, Pet Loads, Metal Finish, Feed, Custom Catalog Number and Action in the Gun Collection Add and Edit Forms
  17. Fixed - When you are adding or editing a firearm and change the Caliber type, the Caliber was suppose to add it's self to the Caliber table if it didn't exist. This helps with the Auto Suggest Feature when adding or editing a firearm or ammunition inventory.
  18. Created a Database Cleanup Option that will allow you to remove all the preloaded data in the database. Also added in Safety cleanup rules that will only clear out data that is not in use by the collection. So if you wanted to clean up the Manufacturers and Models in the database, but keep the firearms that are listed in your database. You can still run the cleanup and it will not delete the manufacture and models that you are still using in your collection.
  19. Removed Barrel Length and Barrel Height, this was not commonly given as the specs from most manufacturers, and useless to a huge majority of the users.
  20. Include Custom Catalog No. in Quick Inventory Report.
  21. Moved around the fields in the Add and Edit Firearms forms, everything that is required is now located on the left side for quick and easy fill out. Optional fields are on the right.
  22. Added the ability to record the Importer of the firearm.
  23. Added the importer Field to the Bound Book reports.
  24. Added the ability to View, Edit, Add, and Delete Grip Types.
  25. Created the Ammo Calculator, which can use when you are entering in maintenance for a firearm, it will allow you to select the ammunition that you used, how much of that brand that you used, and give you a total oh how much was used. It will also take out what was used from the main inventory so you won't have to do it manually.
  26. Added minor stats while viewing the details of the firearms such as Total Ammunition in the Ammunition section and Total rounds fired and Average Rounds fired in the Maintenance Section.
  27. Created the Data Loader Application which will download Manufacturers, Models, Grip Types, Firearm Type, Calibers, Nationality and Maintenance Plans from Our Database server. This will add extra content to your database to help out with the Auto Suggest Feature when filling out Information.
  28. Corperated the Pet Loads with the Ammo in both Individual Ammo and Ammo Calc functions.
  29. Added Options for Image viewing, now by default it will display the picture in it's original size unless it is longer then the work space, which then it will resize the image accordingly.
  30. Added the ability to create a custom user name instead of having to use the default admin login name.
  31. Added the Option to Include and Exclude Pet Loads from Forms.
  32. Added a Full Detail Report Function that will print out the details of the selected firearm and also display the default picture.
  33. Along with being able to create your own user id, we have added a Forgot Password feature at login that will allow you to answer a phrase you created to get your password.
  34. Added a Tool bar for the Ammunition Inventory section that will allow you to add to the current qty, refresh the list, delete the current selected row, and add ammunition to the database. The Old functionality of being able to edit each cell is still active as well.

4 new freeware application available to download.

1 Perl script (Delete Old Files) to delete files based on their file extension if it is x days old.

2 New Command-line application to report a machine's uptime or write an event to the event log if the machine has been rebooted in x days.

BurnSoft Media Pack, which just has the screen savers and back grounds that are loaded on the computers at BurnSoft, we figured, why not and left it as a free download for public use.
