ProVAL 3.01 Released

Celebrate Thanksgiving with ProVAL 3.01! As always, check the Release Notes for important information. Aside from the various bug fixes, we added the ability to copy tables to the Clipboard. We ran out of time to put this feature in 3.00.  Not in the release notes is an additional installation requirement (Visual C++ 2005 SP1).  If you've not been able to get PV3 running, this could be the cause. Time permitting, the next release will address this.

ProVAL 3.0 Released

We are pleased to announce the official release of ProVAL 3.0. This was the longest beta testing period we can recall, so thank you for your patience. A flurry of issues arose near the end, so please read the Release Notes to see if you are affected by the changes. We also added a Known Issues section to the Release Notes.

The PPF file specification has been updated to 1.05.  How to handle Sections in PPF has been clarified, which will hopefully eliminate any confusion.

What's next? We have a small list of features that will go into the next minor update.  Updates will be also issued as needed to fix any issues.

Download ProVAL 3.00

Update: As you read in the Release Notes, there were issues importing Input Sets from 2.7. It is recommended that you start fresh by removing the Analysis Templates file in 3.0.  Instructions for doing this are on the FAQ page, down at the bottom.  The FAQ also describes what else to do if the software crashes.

ProVAL 3.0 Release Candidate 3 now available

Thanks to all the adventurous people trying out PV3, RC 3 is now available. Check the release notes to see what's changed. Barring any showstoppers, this will be the last version in the testing phase.
