What's New At SevenStar Technologies?

With the advent of Object Briefcase v3, we've given our web site a new look and feel! We hope you like it! If you have comments on what you'd like to see on our web site, feel free to contact us and let us know.

Check back here in the future to get the latest information on any recent changes.

December 22, 2006	Our company has now switched to using PayPal for all of our merchant services. This change will help us keep our costs down and still allow us to offer our vintage VB 6.0 software products for sale.
March 12, 2003	Our new address is: SevenStar Technologies 777 Briar Lane Catawissa, MO, 63015 Our toll-free number is the same, but our international phone number has changed: +1 636-399-2265

August 21, 2000	A new release of Object Briefcase v3.3 was made available with many new features: Images Are Now Supported (and shortcuts to them: BMP, ICO, JPG, GIF, WMF) as objects inside Object Briefcase. To send an image to a control, select the control and then send the image. To specify which property to send the image to, use "Send Special (Shift+Alt+5)" Object Briefcase icons now appear on the main menu bar for faster access. Searching CodeHound.com has been integrated into Object Briefcase. Use the icon provided on VB's menu bar, or the pop-up menu in any code window. CodeHound is a trademark of CodeHound, Inc., and SevenStar Technologies neither owns CodeHound nor do we provide the search results. A new save button has been added to the Properties window for more intuitive saving of changes. You can now specify the order of items in dropdown lists on IntelliPaste(tm) designed dialogs. The registry is used differently to allow (1) better access for multiple users on Windows NT, and (2) to allow for Windows NT roaming profiles. The built in code editor (soon to be replaced) now allows for slightly larger amounts of code. We also have a presentation and some free code dealing with *Felixible Object Interface Programming* at this new Free Code web page.
April 24, 2000	A new release of StarPrint/VB Professional (v3.3) was made available with a fix for a bug that caused crashing on subsequent previews or prints on some configurations of Windows 95.

August 17, 1999	At the popular request of our customers, we now distribute our software primarily using electronic download! This distribution method accomplishes two things: 1) Allows you, our customers, to receive your software fast! Generally speaking we will respond to all orders the same day. Orders placed late in the business day may be delayed until the following morning, however. 2) Decreases our costs, and allows us to pass this on to you in the form of $0 shipping and handling charges. (However, if you need a set of floppies, we will send them out to you, and you can request these through email or as part of your order -- shipping and handling charges will apply in this case only.)
July 12, 1999	StarPrint/VB v3.2.1 was released with better Printer Dialog integration, fixing some problems running under Windows NT, especially in regards to paper orientation.
