Known Problems

The following is a list of some known problems with our software; we are working to correct them for the next release.
Version 1.22 Enter an amount of zero in the Refund section caused "Illegal" message. This has been fixed in Version 2.0.
Deleting the last item of a sorted list of names sometimes caused re-display problems so that an item in the database did not appear on the list, even though the data had not been lost.  This problem has been fixed in Version 2.0.
Version 1.21: pushing the Update Pets Checkup button on the Pet Medical History form sometimes crashed program.  This has been fixed in Version 1.22
Entering an incorrect date format in the Payments form crashed program. Fixed in Version 1.22, and an error message window is displayed.
Version 1.1: some users of Windows 95/98 reported problems in printing to their printer from a report window.   Work around: type in the name of a file (plain text or check Rich Text Format) and save to the file.  Open file in your favorite word processor and print from there.  This problem did not occur for users of Windows 3.1, or NT. This problem has been fixed in Version 1.2 which provides the TxtPrint utility.
In the Health Resources feature, you may find that some telephone numbers or Internet addresses become obsolete.  This is not a "bug" in the software, but an inevitable occurrence over time as organizations move or re-organize their services.  The telephone number/Internet address field is editable, and you may re-enter the correct new number or address if it has been changed.
In the Insurance component, you may find that your managed care or fee for service plan differs in some way from the questions asked on the data entry form.   Your plan may not have some of the options, or may have an option not listed in the form.  As you can imagine, with so many variations in plan coverage, it is difficult to devise a data entry form that is both easy to use and comprehensive.  We welcome any suggestions you have concerning the form for describing plan coverage.
Installing Health-Minder on a Windows NT system: before running the program hm32.exe, be sure you are not connected to a network, and remove any CD-ROM from the CD-ROM drive.  This will speed installation.  If you have downloaded hm32.exe after Oct 12, 1998, this suggestion can be ignored as the installation program will search only local drives.
