Build 00 - 08JUN07
>Long File Names and Longer Path Names Implemented, Plus New File Format.
All aspects of TEAPAC data file storage, including SCENARIO condition files, have been
extended so that file names can have as many as 70 characters in their names, and file path names
can have as many as 180 characters, both including upper or lower case characters and spaces.
Since SCENARIO condition files and certain file switch options can add as many as 6 characters
to file names, it is best if user-entered names are no more than 64 characters.
A new, higher capacity data file format with a new file extension (.tpc) has been introduced
which will be used by default for all new files created by all TEAPAC programs. This format is
text-based like the old .for format so it is still easy to see what is in a file, as well as write such
files from other programs, but with a look to the future this format has line length maximums of
256 characters per line (254 useable) instead of the more limiting maximums of the .for format
which had maximums of 128 characters per line (80 useable). The old format can still be read
and written simply by continuing to use the .for extension, but users are encouraged to convert
files to the new format simply by saving .for file with the new .tpc extension (then archive the
.for files so they are not used by mistake). The long file names and paths mentioned above are
valid for either extension.
>New User Discussion Forum Is Accessible Directly from the Help Menu.
The new User Discussion Forum which has been implemented for TEAPAC users and is
available 24/7 for posting questions and searching through answers to previous questions can
now be accessed directly from the Help menu of the program. The Forum can also be accessed
directly using any internet browser at www.StrongConcepts.com/Forum.

Scroll down to 'Ver 3.70 07NOV05, Build 07 - 11NOV05' below for the major changes which
were implemented for the original Visual TEAPAC release.
>SCENARIO Program Makes its Debut.
SCENARIO is a new Visual TEAPAC program that can create multi-scenario data files either
from scratch or from data files of earlier versions of TEAPAC. Users can 1) select from predefined typical scenario structures like multiple volume conditions or multiple timing plans, 2)
create completely unique scenario conditions for their analyses, or 3) customize a pre-defined
scenario structure to meet their specific needs. The primary advantage of using SCENARIO is
