NEW 20th May 2006! >>>>> INCLUDEs found on local files are also retrieved and analyzed as part of these files.
NEW 20th April 2006! >>>>> Save & Open has been added to the Class Diagram. File extensions for Class Diagrams as well as for Entity-Relationship Diagrams are now associated in Windows, so you can double-click any of these files in the explorer and AboveSoft Analyzer will automatically open them.
NEW 19th April 2006! >>>>> Save & Open has been added to the Entity-Relationship Diagram. This feature greatly improves the Diagram since you can build your own archive of ER diagrams or resume your work later.
NEW 20th March 2006! >>>>> The Entity-Relationship Diagram was added. Just provide the application with the name of an R/3 table, and the software will recursively search for all the tables related to it, then it will automatically build the Entity-Relationship Diagram showing also the cardinality between tables.
NEW 9th March 2006! >>>>> A disk-cache for source code was implemented. All the operations are performed much faster and data transfer between the R/3 server and the workstation is highly reduced.
NEW 16th Dec 2005! >>>>> Search for programs can also be used on local folders.
NEW 26th Nov 2005! >>>>> Search for programs containing a text now works asynchronously, letting you analyze the results while the operation is in progress.
NEW 22nd Nov 2005! >>>>> Navigability improved. From the source code window now you can double-click on Includes, Tables and Structures to get information for these objects.
Broken Rules detection. Predefined template provided to check Customer-Permitted Database operations (in order to detect if any Z program is inserting/updating/deleting standard tables).
