v3.6b.10 (See release document here)
The Main change in moving to version 3.6 was in response to users. First we expanded the number of practices available to every login. There are now 20 practices. The second change was to introduce the "Intermediate" and "Advanced" selection so a person can choose to have the real time feedback or they can hide it.
v3.5 (See release document here)
There was a major structure change in the way registrations are submitted. This was to get around the increasing difficulty posed by fire walls, anti-virus programs and protection programs.

Upgrades and Directories
Each Main Version change, indicated by the two numbers from the left, for example from 3.7 to 5.3 will create a different directory for your results.
If you upgrade and do not see your logins. Do not panic they are all there, but in the previous directory. More information on file naming and directories can be found here.
Upgrades and Records Data
In some upgrades, new features have been added. If that happens, this will require a change in the structure and type of data collected.
Some of the files created in a previous version might not display correctly. Do not worry. This does NOT corrupt the data. The information is all there and intact. You simply need to use the previous version to view it, or contact us and we might be able to convert it to the new structure.
Upgrades and Features
We issue regular upgrades to add new features to existing products. This is our response to our users and hopefully it makes the product easier to use.
What the Version Numbers Mean
When we move to a new number after the decimal place, for example from v5.0 to v5.1 or from 3.7 to 3.8, this means we have added a major set of new features.
We recommend that you upgrade.
