A NEW YEAR, A NEW LOOK AND A NEW VERSION OF THE SOFTWARE!
With the new year ahead of us it is great to be starting it
with a new look newsletter and a new release of
RS-SQL™. During 2001 we released five new versions
of our software, as we moved from version 1.17 to
version 1.21. That's more than all our competitors
put together! This year promises to be equally
exciting with some great new features on the horizon and
we've started off the year as we mean to go on...with
the release of RS-SQL™ Version 1.22
You can get the latest scoop on version 1.22 below in the What's New Section and also don't forget to look at the Tips section to see how you can use one of the new features immediately. For the first time this release contains some pre-release (often named beta) versions of new features heading your way, so you can get an early look and feel of them.
Finally, we hope you enjoy the new look eNewsletter. Not only has the layout changed but we have changed some of the topics... but don't worry! The Hints, Tips & Great Links that we have been providing you with throughout 2001 are still here.
We hope you have a very successful 2002.

RS-SQL™
VERSION 1.22 - IT JUST KEEPS GETTING BETTER!
The latest version of RS-SQL™ comes with a host of new
features to help you keep ahead of the competition. So
what can you find in this great new release?
The Operations Program is boosted with the Item Process Control Table now giving the ability to query by workorder priority and a great new feature, named Alternate Sort Order (ASO) appears in beta format for the first time. ASO will allow record centers to manage files with sort sequences, such as Terminal Digit Medical Files, much more simply. That means that RS-SQL™ can now automatically handle any sort sequence for an account's records: Barcode, Alternate Code or Sequence Range can all use this feature.
The Administration Program benefits from some enhancements to the language module, new query fields in the re-print invoice option and most importantly a price adjustment module. For more details on the price adjustment module, see the RS-SQL™ Tip below.
The RSWeb/Web Order screens have the added benefit of an email being generated and sent to the customer when a request for a report is fulfilled by the record center. This alerts the customer that they can now 'pick up' the completed report through the RSWeb screens and, best of all... its all automatic.
Also, on the CD you will also find a folder named RSSQL32. In this folder is an installation program named SETUP.EXE. This program will install the new 32-bit version of RS-SQL. The 32-bit version front-end is fully compatible with the RS-SQL 1.22 Database so why not install alongside the current version. You can find a complete list of the difference between the versions also on the CD in the folder manuals/RSSQL32Changes. We think you'll like the new look.

WHAT'S
NEW ON THE WEB...
A few years ago we offered a book free to Records
managers through ARMA's publication the Records Manager
Quarterly to help a prospect select an off-site
vendor. Known as the Industry Update,
this has proven to be such a popular book that we've put
it onto our web site for you to download. Why not
put your company logo onto it and give it to your
prospects? You can find the book by following the
link below:
y no longer intend to support older versions of
their software, and there has been much speculation
relating to the support of Record Storage for Windows
(RSWin). We believe that it is important that we
support our customers and assist them with a transition
to RS-SQL™
when they are ready to do so. Technology is
constantly changing and much of the older
infrastructures are becoming un-supported and so there
will come a natural time when RSWin will no longer
function. Then and only then would we withdraw
support for this product.
