DEALMAKER PRO UPDATE NOTES

FIXES in version 2.7— March 14, 2008

Notice that registration will soon expire. All the dialogs are prettier now, but the one that starts warning PRO users 30 days before their registration is due to expire failed to show any other text. Not too helpful, but now it's fixed.

FIXES in version 2.6— March 13, 2008

Entry fields sticky. Some entry fields on Screen 1 were difficult to use. Fixed.

FIXES in version 2.5— March 13, 2008

Alimony/Spousal/Partner Support. In some cases, when changes regarding the state or nature of case were made on Screen 1, DealMaker would not always updated to the correct terminology in the agreement. This has been fixed.

Accidental crashes. If user (for some odd reason) were to click twice in the left column outside the button areas, DealMaker could crash. Fixed.

Chuld support declarations. DealMaker would sometimes reference California code even in cases outside California. This has been fixed.

Dialogs/popus on some computers would not scale properly so that text would run off the visible area. This has been fixed.

Menu items can now be opened by pressing Alt plus the first letter of the menu you want to open.

FIXES in version 2.4— February 1, 2008

Screen 8, line A3. Indication that agreed child support is above or below the state guideline would produce the opposite result in the agreement. Fixed.

Typo fixed. Minor typo fix where two words ran together. Where? Use your spell checker or produce agreement again with this version. Hint: it was buried in the child support section.

FIXES in version 2.3

There was no version 2.3 We jump to version 2.4 to stay parallel with the single-user version.

FIXES in version 2.2— January 16, 2008

The Notary Acknowledgments—CA. Effective January 1, 2008, California requires different language for the Acknowledgement, so this new language was added to the Notary page following the signature page.

Other states. All notaries have acknowledgment forms, so if ever a notary is not satisfied with DealMaker's language, they will substitute their own form and attach it either in the same location or at the end of the agreement. This is perfectly valid.

FIXES in version 2.1— January 13, 2008

Exhibit error checking. Screens III and IV. If the user enters items in a property list without checking the related box, DealMaker would behave inconsistently by producing the Exhbit and entering it in the list of attachments under the signatures with an incorrect item number, but language related to the Exhibit would not appear in the agreement. In this version, DealMaker will not produce the exhibit or use language related to it unless the related box has been checked.

Typos fixed. "Separate" is now spelled correctly and spaces were added in two places where words ran together.

Version 2.0— January 7, 2008

Valid in all 50 states. DealMaker can now produce agreements that are valid in every state. It is important to follow instructions in the help files.

Updated help files. DealMaker help files have been updated, improved, and are now compatible with Windows Vista, XP, 2000, and NT.

Version 1.4— Sept. 24, 2007

Tax refund. In Section IX - Taxes, if you indicated that refunds were to be divided for some particular tax year, DealMaker failed to insert the year in the printout. This has been fixed.

Version 1.3— August 11, 2007

Pension funds. Added a warning prior to printing when the account and transfer information is incomplete.

Transfer of interest in a pension fund. Added a warning prior to printing when no waiver type is selected for the transfer of a pension fund.
