Version 6.4
Released 2nd March 2005
Added code to data validation to create log file of fixes made by the validation routine.
Fixed some minor bugs in egg forms which were showing up if you entered historical egg data, i.e. eggs with an egg number from a previous year.
Added the ability to have a non hardware locked key for workstation version of AIMS to save you having to ask for keys for each workstation.
You can install this directly into your aims directory, after making a backup, if you have any version after 6.0 installed.
Due to the issue with the minor bugs in the egg data entry screen this is
regarded as a critical upgrade.

Kw and pip time databases have been greatly increased
Version 6.3
Released 4th February 2005
The egg graph now shows the minimum and maximum loss for each egg rather than
the system defaults of 11% and 17%
Fix a bug in the edit egg measurements page.
Version 6.0
Released 15 December 2004
Fixes a bug in ring numbers of both parents are wild.
I have now made the runtime files as a separate install to reduce the size of
downloads.
Please install the runtimes before you install the main program.
The version of the runtimes has changed from version 5.x to 6 so you must
install the runtimes files as shown on this page if you are installing the
program for the first time, or are upgrading from a version lower then 6.0.
You only need to install the runtime once. If you want to upgrade from 6.0
to 6.1 when it is released you will only need to download and install the
application files.
