We’ve updated to 2.0.2 today. This version fixes a few issues for Windows users or CubeSQL users.

We updated to 2.0.3 today. This version fixes another CubeSQL issue.

2.0.4 was released today. This version fixes an issue with parsing MS SQL Server databases.

2.0.5 was released today. This version adds the ability to group user interface forms by table/view name. For example, if you had a table ‘Artist’ and have ARGen create List and Edit forms and have this option checked, those forms are put into a folder. This helps organize your projects.

Also fixed a minor issue with alignment and a not being able to find SQLite databases once saved.

2.0.6 was released today. This version fixed a couple of minor issue with created projects. It should also fix an issue with the Mac version not updating properly (Macs user may want to download the update from our website at http://www.bkeeney.com/allproducts/argen/)
