Latest version:  v.5.1a



Important notice for users of Version 5.0:
==========================================
A significant change has been made in the structure of the data base
between version 5.0 and version 5.1a. This change nothing in the user
interfaces, but allows higher speed, specially in the graph module.
The version 5.1a cannot run on the data of version 5.0 before a change
is made in the data with the programme ConvPorf.opo, supplied in this
archive. What you must do:

- copy ConvPorf.opo to the \system\apps\porfolio\ folder
- run it (by selecting it and pressing Enter)
- delete ConvPorf.opo (it must be run only once)
- that's all

This zip archive includes the following files:
