Version History

Current Version: 2.0.0.2

1.1.0.2
(released 23/11/2005)

Wasn't checking supported extensions properly when determining if a message had "one or more picture attachments"

Cosmetic changes and better error handling for some scenarios


1.1.0.3
(released 24/11/2005)

Clicking cancel when browsing to change default folder cleared existing path on Export Attachments and Settings screens

Custom toolbars now remember position and size and are properly cleaned up

E-mail windows now remember their previous window state (Normal/restored or maximized)

Cached images were not getting deleted after a slideshow launched from the Explorer toolbar

Messages without attachments incorrectly displayed toolbar, ignoring choice on Settings screen


1.1.0.4
(released 02/12/2005)

Added Subject line of selected e-mail to caption of Wizard form

Fixed bug loading image info into Task Pane if image data cannot be read

Corrected application version number format on About screen

Now storing version number in registry

Better error handling for calls that use the Microsoft Scripting Runtime Library, which could be disabled by anti-virus script blocking functions

New browse for folder dialog that's resizable and allows for creating folders

Checks for fully downloaded messages in Exchange environments; attachments were not being retrieved if only the header had been downloaded and an error was returned

Can now detect IrfanView and Nero PhotoSnap Viewer as installed image viewers/editors

Corrected issue when attachment preview is enabled for new e-mails, whereby if replying to an e-mail that contained an embedded image and clicking send (without adding any attachments), the Wizard will auto-load to display the embedded image

Main Outlook toolbar now shows/hides according to choice in Settings screen


1.1.0.5
(super secret release!)

Corrected issue (FOR SURE THIS TIME!) when attachment preview is enabled for new e-mails, whereby if replying to an e-mail that contained an embedded image and clicking send (without adding any attachments), the Wizard will auto-load to display the embedded image

Now saving customizations to toolbar buttons (style and caption)


1.1.0.6
(released 03/01/2006)

Now supports Terminal Server and both multi-user/multi-profile installations, as well as single user installs

Moved temporary picture files folder from <drive>:\Program Files\Collaborative Innovations\Picture Attachments Wizard\Temporary Picture Files to <drive>:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data\Collaborative Innovations\Picture Attachments Wizard\Temporary Picture Files

Fixed issue where the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Collaborative Innovations\Picture Attachments Wizard\Settings registry key wasn't being created when another Windows user or another Outlook profile used the Wizard, basically causing it not to work at all

Setting the default folder for saving attachments to the My Pictures folder does not work on Windows 2003; reverting to My Documents folder (unless My Pictures actually exists)

If "Hide extensions for known file types" was checked for Windows Explorer, some image viewers would not open the selected image in the Wizard

Internet Explorer was not getting detected as an installed browser (worked correctly in previous versions)

1.1.0.7
(released 17/01/2006)
Number (x/y) in "From Digital Camera: x/y" task pane title could be hidden if more than 10 picture attachments were in the e-mail; will now read “x/y from Digital Camera”
  Title bar caption in Wizard screen did not account for e-mail subject lines that are very long; now only the first portion of the subject line is captured up to the limit (89 chars) available
1.1.0.8
(released 07/02/2006)
Now silently handling error messages when reading invalid EXIF or file property data on certain attachments (appears to be some issues with images created in Adobe PhotoShop 7.0)
  Added support for processing image attachments in Post items
  New option for detecting inline HTML images (preview/do not preview)
  Option to preview attachments in new e-mails is now disabled by default
1.1.0.9

Revised keyboard accelerators (used to activate button with the ALT key) on the Outlook toolbar:

- "Settings"
- "Quick-save Only Picture Attachments in Selected Messages to Default Directory"
- "
Save All Attachments in Selected Messages To..."

1.1.0.12
(released 28/06/2006)

Files with an '&' in the name caused an error when selecting it in the Wizard screen.  Due to a bug in the control that displays the file information in the left task pane, these characters are now removed from the file name in the details box only.

Added support for Windows 7.  Note that only Outlook 2000-2003 installs will show 2.0.0.1 for the product version.  All versions will show 2.0.0.2 in Add/Remove Programs or Programs and Features.
