Build 324 - Now Available 

A bunch of different types of changes from 322 including better handling on sorting and grouped filters. There will be more coming this week but I just realized there's been 2 weeks since the last update. What's coming? Support for some of the new stuff in Mind's Eye.
 
Known Issues
Distinct Counts still don't sub-total properly. This will be updated later this week.
If you are still having problems with filters not working properly, download the full install and install it from scratch. There were changes made in the meta data in an earlier build.
 
Details of Updates
 
Updates to FFCONFIG Builder.
Removed Allow Full edit from Filter screen. This functionality has been removed from the end-user runtime filters so that you must be a designer to access it. As a designer, therefore, you can simply modify the filter to use this feature.
Rebuilt FFADMIN to support full Administrative Options. This will eventually reduce the size of FOXFIRE.APP to a very small file since all of the real meta data stuff will be in FFADMIN.EXE
Updating of menu options on Request Manager for new admin settings.
Fix for invalid translation of dates.
Fix to support newer versions of Excel. Foxfire! used to do an actual registry check. Now we simply attempt to create the COM object and move from there.
Fix for cross-tabs no longer working.
Older versions of Foxfire! called Cross-tabs X-Tabs which will now be automatically switched to say Cross-Tab.
Fixes in FFREQSRT and group footer displaying of options.
Fixed resizing for dialogs when only the ask for header at runtime is turned on.
Fix for problem when changing output options on a brand new request.
Automatically adding sorts for summary reports
Fixed problem with modify layout not working properly.
Changed PUTFILE in FFOUTGUI to display properly to end users.
Changed default justification for Distinct Counts to Right
Fix for adding group filters
Removed ability to create filters on distinct items (SQL Doesn't allow it)
