  • Added more samples and help, including FTP and send e-mail samples.
  • Added 'does not contain' option for conditional build rules.
  • Added step property 'Wait for completion' to allow immediately starting the next step without waiting for completion of the current step (useful for parallel builds).
  • Fixed bug in VBMake tool that caused it to fail the first time because the output file did not exist.
  • Fixed expansion of macro parameter values so they can contain commas.
  • Fixed Ctrl+M to copy only the selected part of the field when there is a selection.
  • Added Build option when right-clicking Visual Build project files in Explorer.

  • Show the new common file dialog when running in Windows 2000.

  • Remember the last macro tab that was viewed on the Macros dialog.
