Current list of changes


Sunday, Mar 08, 2009 - New Server

SWA has changed the server that distributes the bid data and this update points BM! to the new server.   We also made some minor corrections.

Saturday, June 30, 2007 - New Server

SWA has changed the server that distributes the bid data and this update points BM! to the new server.  You should see a much faster download of data.  We also made some minor corrections.

Saturday, May 5, 2007 - Quick Fix

A problem was discovered loading MCO data for June. It seems line number 264 has 12 different pairings assigned. Although The Bid Meister! has the ability to handle up to 20 different pairings on a line, the Line Display can only display up to 10 different pairing summaries on its display. This was causing a bid line data loading error. The Line Display will still only display 10 different pairing summaries, all extra pairings are ignored. To see check-in or arrival times on the extra pairings, simply double-click on them to pop-up the detailed display.

PLEASE NOTE! - It was originally intended to release this version of The Bid Meister! next month to coincide with the company moving its Crew Web Access server to the SWALife server with all the other company access sites. However, as noted above, an error discovered loading the MCO data for June has prompted an early release. A new update will be forthcoming next month that will update the Internet communication section with the new CWA server location.

Here's a brief on changes made to the program:
----------------------------------------------
A simplified current line display was added to the Main Menu display for convenience. You still need to bring up the Current Line Display to make changes or add training, vacation, etc. This feature can be turned off by using the Program Preferences under the Options menu.

Several small changes were made in dialog boxes for convenience.


Tuesday, June 6, 2006 - Quick Fix

Depending on how long you have had your current Bid Meister! installation on your computer, you may have notice that after loading July data and restarting the program, the program will show June data. This fix will eliminate this problem.

For this revision:
First, the subscription system will not be implemented as was announced a few months ago, however, it is still in the works at this time.

The company still hasn't switched the URL for downloading & uploading bid files. This isn't a big problem, but we will stay on top of this if and when they do.

Here's a brief on changes made to the program:
----------------------------------------------
Fixed error in calculating total trip pay on pairings.
Fixed error on system setup when a dollar sign was entered for pay or per diem
Fixed several minor problems on the Current Line Display.
File transfer program modified to prevent transfer errors if BM web site is down.
Fixed a problem where the file transfer program would sometimes "hang" when exiting. New component was issued by the vendor.
Web site address www.BidMeister.biz changed to www.TheBidMeister.com
