**************************************************************
Power Finder 2.1 

[] Bugs fixed this version

There was still a problem with the sorting on the Creation Date
column in all list views.  This has been fixed.

[]  Changes to this version

Added file size and date filters to search criteria. Dates can
be selected using the four way spinner control or if you
double-click on the date entry field you get a cool calendar
to pick your date from. See the help file for docs on these
new controls.

**************************************************************
Power Finder 2.0 

[] Bugs fixed this version

[]  Changes to this version

New registration code will require new reg numbers for everybody.


**************************************************************
Power Finder 1.2 

[] Bugs fixed this version

If you had search results window showing then minimized it and
tryed to run a new search not in the background the results
window was not shown like it should have been.  Now even if
you had it open previously it will be re-opened to display a
non background search in progress.

[]  Changes to this version

Changed the behavior of the Exit button on the Finder Results
toolbar and also the System Close button on the title bar
so that the Exit button is now a Done button, meaning if you
click it the results window simply goes back to the system
tray instead of shutting down the entire program.  Clicking
the system close button on the title bar will also simply
return the app to the tray.  To Exit and Unload from memory
you must now use the popup menu by right clicking on the
system tray icon.  This was done because many users (all of
us) were constantly shutting down the program instead of
sending it back to the tray.

Rewrote custom listview control used in the Finder Results
window so that loading of a large search results list is
now very fast instead of toooo slow!  Searches will also be
much faster now because the list only gets sorted after the
search is finished instead of as each item is added.

Added new submenu to the drop down menu attached to the
slider button on the Finder Results title bar that will
let you start your browser and go to our web site with
a single click of the mouse.  You can go to the main page
or straight to a download link for the latest version of
Power Finder.

**************************************************************
Power Finder 1.0.02 

[] Bugs fixed this version

Fixed a problem with the Power Finder code that was not reading
Word *.DOC files correctly when searching for embedded text.  All
binary files including *.DOC files will now have the text extracted
from them and then searched for matches.  NOTE:  If you have checked
the option to skip binary files ALL binary files are skipped, including
*.DOC files.  Also, binary file searches take much longer than straight
text searches due to the extra manipulation required.
**************************************************************
Power Finder 1.0.01 

[] Bugs fixed this version

After running under NT and displaying the search results window
at least once, if Power Finder was in the system tray and you tried
to shut down the system you would get access violations.

**************************************************************
Power Finder 1.0 Release Candidate

Runs only under Windows 95 ot NT 4.0!
Includes an small viewer program for text files.
Runs from the system tray.
Allows opening files with internal viewer or by association.
Can select and open multiple files or delete them.

Installation note:  Do not install into the same directory as
Gator Edit 1.5!

Note:  If running files by association some programs like Notepad
will open a separate copy of the program for each file opened so
be careful if you try to open a large number of files.  Both the included
viewer and Gator Edit 1.5 support opening multiple files with only
one program instance, even if the program is already running!
