Version 1.2.2 is now posted. The most important fix, the removal of the check on the "U" (line1, column 8) to validate element sets. Thanks to Allen Thompson, Phil Rogers and others, I've incorporated other checks that should work just fine. Specifically, in ver 1.2.2 a decimal point in column 24 is now required. All previous versions have been looking for a "1 " in the first two columns, and a line length after trim of 69 characters. Actually it's pretty unlikely an invalid set will sneak in. Other checks of Line2 and cross checking between line1 and line2 are also done before a two line element set passes validation for import. For Version History see: http://www.eoss.org/elementmanager/version.htm For the download page: http://www.eoss.org/elementmanager/download.htm If you have downloaded V 1.1.8 or later, just get the lite version of the program. It's just the EXE file and a much faster (smaller) download. -- cul -- Rick - N0KKZ
