1. Barcode Macros update.

The Barcode Macros for Office product has been updated as follows:

Office 97 macros for Excel and Access are now included and these display instructions on opening the sample database/spreadsheet.
Office 2000-compatible macros are now included (based on MS Office 2000 beta 2)
The Plessey barcode type and the Autralia Post barcode type have been added to the list of types supported.


--------------------------------------

2. dBarcode-2D Developers Kit

A number of enhancements have been made to the 2D DLL to ensure that very large barcode images can ben created. The three major types PDF417, Aztec and DataMatrix may now be used for encoding image files.

--------------------------------------

3. dBarcode-32 and dBarcode-2D latest builds

The latest builds of these two products (including the developer kits) have the Plessey and Australia Post barcode types added.

--------------------------------------

4. dLabel-32 and dLabel-2D updates

Version 4.24 of each of these products is now available. These correct the vanishing Window problem experience by some users of Windows 98 or of other Windows versions after a recent version of MFC42.DLL had been installed. Some user's thought the program was crahing because the main window was not being repainted when the rulers were visible.

dLabel-32/2D now includes support for the Plessey barcode type and the Autralia Post barcode type.

Users who purchased any of the above products after July 1st 1998 should find that their licence files are still functional. (if not please e-mail us with your existing licence code or original order date and we will send you new codes).
