Hello all, I just pushed a minimal 4.1.1 release to try our new release procedures. We're moving the web face off http://www.dqsd.net and onto http://dqsd.sourceforge.net, the latter should be the official DQSD homepage before too long. See release details and downloads here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/dqsd/files/dqsd/4.1.1.0/ Best wishes, - Kim |

Hi all, It's been a long time coming, but here's finally an official release of DQSD 4.1.0.0: https://sourceforge.net/projects/dqsd/files/dqsd/4.1.0.0/? For a change, Microsoft's release cycle has been shorter than ours, and they've managed to put out Windows 7 in the meantime. There have been some reports of successful DQSD installations, with tweaks, but I don't have access to a Win7 machine myself, so I can't vouch for what's working. Best wishes, - Kim |

Hello DQSD users! After a long hiatus, we've finally gotten our act together and released DQSD 4.0, with support for the new Internet Explorer as of Windows XP SP2. There are still a couple of quirks to iron out, but the toolbar should now load without security warnings. The dqsd.net website and auto-updates should get the latest before too long.

Hello everyone, As you may have noticed, we have recently released two betas of DQSD 3=2E1=2E9, and time has come to release it properly=2E This is really a minor release, feature-wise, but we've fixed a fair number of issues, and added a year's worth of new searches=2E We received some complaints last time that links to the release were broken, so we've used TinyUrl this time to keep them short=2E Release notes: http://tinyurl=2Ecom/5b8re=20 Download from SourceForge: http://tinyurl=2Ecom/4d8pf=20 Mailing lists for support: http://tinyurl=2Ecom/5g9ap=20 Please note that Windows XP Service Pack 2 is still wreaking havoc for us=2E The safest thing you can do is to click the yellow "Allow blocked content" whenever it shows up in DQSD=2E We have posted some workarounds at http://www=2Edqsd=2Enet/sp2=2Ehtm if you're feeling more adventurous and don't mind the security risks=2E We are already working on an SP2-friendly version of DQSD, but there's lots to be done, so that will be a separate release=2E On a more personal note, someone reported the last announcement e-mail to SpamCop as unsolicited e-mail, so I received an agitated letter from my ISP=2E While this was easily sorted out, I'd appreciate it if you unsubscribe rather than report these messages as spam=2E=20 To unsubscribe: - Go to http://tinyurl=2Ecom/52v8j or=20 - Send a message to dqsd-announce-leave@lists=2Esourceforge=2Enet, or - As a last resort, contact me, and I'll remove you from the list manually=2E Happy holidays, if applicable, and enjoy the new release! - The DQSD Team, through Kim Gr=E4sman=2E |

First, *great* tool! I have an issue, and a question. I've checked the FAQ without success, so I am turning to the professionals. =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D ACTIVATION I am having difficulty activating DQSD using the keyboard combination. I am running XP, and have the taskbar set to "auto-hide". When I hit the keyboard combination, the window that I am currently working in loses focus, but nothing else happens. XP's taskbar does not pop up, and the Search Window is not activated. (I've hit the shortcut, then brought up the XP taskbar to verify) If I have the taskbar already UP (either hitting the bottom of the screen with my mouse, hitting <ctl><esc>, or hitting the <win> key by itself), *then* hit the combination, it works fine. =20 However, since the above keys ALSO bring up the 'start' menu, I have to either hit <esc> or hit the keyboard combination a couple times for DQSD to get the focus. Any help would be appreciated. Having to hit several keyboard combinations significantly reduces the usability of a great tool. I currently have=20 hotkeyCharacter =3D "Z"; hotkeyModifiers=3D"WIN"; =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D AUTO COMPLETE While this feature auto-completes some things, it does not auto-complete directory names. Even if I have entered the drive:directory name in the past, it still will not auto-complete. Windows Explorer will allow you to type a couple characters and try to complete it for you, as will the Start/Run command. It will even list the last couple directories you've used in the past. This would be *very* helpful as I bounce around my drive a lot. Is there something I need to do to activate this, or is it planned for the future?

Hi all, I've released an update to the Search Wizard. No huge changes, just some minor improvements. http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=42081&release_id=111879 I would really appreciate any of you who could test it out and provide some feedback. I'm not planning to add anything new before the 1.0 release, just fix any bugs that show up. Thanks to all who have provided feedback up to this point. Glenn 0.8, 0.9 Release Notes ------------- Version 0.9 (beta) 20-Sep-2002 * Added links to DQSD search wizard web site on About dialog * Added help in the form of tooltips which can be turned on and off * Rearranged some of the controls and cleaned up some code Version 0.8 (beta) 16-Sep-2002 * Added options for including switches and examples in description * Changed options for selected form CSS styles |

Version 0.7 (beta) of the DQSD Search Wizard has been released and is available here: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=42081&release_id=109729 This release fixes some minor formatting issues in the generated search files and also adds some new features suggested by MLL. As always, testing and feedback are appreciated. Thanks, Glenn Changes for version 0.7 (beta) 9-Sep-2002 * Added option for mutually exclusive switches which changes gen'd code for parsing switches. (If this option is selected, the generated code will only examine the first switch. If not selected, then the code will examine all the switches.) * Added feature to highlight selected FORM with user-configurable color/border. This works most of the time, but in cases where it doesn't work there is already a border/background specified for the FORM that can't be overridden. Change the CSS styles for border and background-color in the options.) * Added button to show/hide HTML of selected FORM. This display is arguably a waste of screen space with recent enhancements (auto-selection of active FORM, highlighting selected FORM). It's still there, but just off by default. * Fixed indentation of 'break' in generated code. |
