Window layout has been completely revised. "Last Pricefile Update" has been moved to the About-Box. Fonts can be selected. Program should function correctly on OS/2 V1.3 and OS/2 V2.0 with VGA, 8514/A or XGA resolution. Column widths can be adjusted by dragging the right hand boundary line of the column. A column can be hidden by dragging the right hand line completely past the left hand line. It can be restored by picking up the drag icon to the right of the right boundary line of the previous column. Settings can be saved. Settings include: Column sizes, font, window sizes, window positions (including Bay and Slots pop-up positions). A file named ICPA.PRM is created in the directory specified in the ICPA PARM field. If no directory was specified in the parm, ICPA.PRM is saved in the default directory. The total number of systems can be specified. This is currently only used to display prices and is not printed or saved. This will be done in the next version. Help can be obtained for part numbers that have already been selected. This is done by moving the mouse pointer over the part numbers in the P/N colunn. If help is available for a partnumber, the pointer changes to an Info icon. Pressing mouse button one or two while the Info icon is shown will display the help window. The Option and Exclusive option dialog boxes now have Help pushbuttons which are active if the option (or parent of the option) has help available. Prices are displayed with NLS thousand separators and decimal symbols. IF AN AMOUNT OR NUMBER CANNOT FIT IN A COLUMN, ASTERIKS (*) ARE DISPLAYED.
