> Hi  there,
> 
> This an announcement of the official release of the 'SQR Extensions v1.1'
> function library. The software can be downloaded from
> <http://www.code-development.com/Products/SQR/>/
> 
> All of you that are still on 1.0 beta should be aware that it expires on
> 1/Feb/99 and in order to continue working without interruptions, you
> should upgrade to 1.1.
> 
> On top of the original functions like message box, option box, date input
> etc, this version brings some new features primarily oriented towards the
> communication with the user during the run of long reports.
> 
> The 'INFOBOX' is a small display panel that stays up during the execution
> of a report and can be used for the following:
> 
> - Offer the user to 'Cancel' further execution of the report while you
> still stay in control: During the run of the report, the user can press
> 'Cancel' button. Instead of halting the report, this sends a message to
> your code and from that point you can bring down the report in a
> 'controlled' manner. (or, if you wish, you can continue with execution and
> tell the user to buzz-off as now is not the right time for cancellation).
> 
> - Chat with the user while the report is being executed: Display messages
> like '12 000 034 lines processed... still going strong.' or 'I am still
> alive, please don't kill me. I'll get there in the end. Promise!' etc.
> 
> - Show a progress bar. Display a standard windows progress bar that shows
> the percentage of completeness in a 'graphical' manner.
> 
> For those that did not have a chance to see SQR Extensions 1.0 here is a
> brief description of other functions:
> 
> - Message box with OK-Cancel, Yes-No-Cancel and other combinations of
> buttons.
> 
> - Input box with facility to display a message contained in a $variable.
> 
> - Radio button box. Similar layout to that which appears when you shut
> down your windows session.
> 
> - Input Box for date inputs with built in Year 2000 bug resolution and a
> fancy calendar.
> 
> SQR Extensions now come in both 16 bit and 32 bit editions.
> 
> Enjoy.
