ParaPlan 4.0 Beta Unleashed!

I will soon be installing our newest version of ParaPlan at Kendal-Crosslands today (www.kcc.kendal.org). Steve Cooper is the transportation director at KCC and will be our first beta tester of ParaPlan 4.0. Steve provided numerous requests and comments during the development of ParaPlan 2/3 and he will be a great resource for us as we roll out the new version. Steve will be testing it on a copy of his ParaPlan 3.8x data.

PP 4.0 is in written in C# .NET 3.5...Tim has been working on it for quite some time and we are excited about beginning its release cycle!

This new version is no longer dependent on Microsoft Access which has always caused us various issues.

Stay tuned!

Transferring Outlook Data

Tim showed me how to use the Microsoft 'Save My Office Settings' tool, which worked like a champ as I was setting up my new machine.

The Ole Village Greens Golf Course

Peez took me out to one of our old college favorites 2 weekends ago. The course is called THE VILLAGE GREENS and it resides in lovely Ozawkie, KS near Perry Lake. We played this course quite a bit in our later days in college because it was cheap and fun. All we had was Alvamar when we were at KU and she’s a little pricey for college kids. Anyway, it was humid and hot but good times. After, we stopped in Oskaloosa to watch the final round of the PGA at some local ‘downtown’ bar called Angie’s?

Simulating A Right-Click From The Keyboard

I have been doing quite a bit of LogMeIn (IT Reach and Rescue) lately and sometimes my mouse right-click does not work to get context menus. Therefore, if you ever have this issue, just select the icon or item you need and press [Shift] [F10]. I am sure Tim could have told me this, but he wasn't here :)
