WinFlash v5.1 was an interim upgrade incorporating the following new features and enhancements.  Both 16- and 32-bit versions are available.

The ability to administer .FLT (test) files created by the new WinFlash Educator v5.1 has been added.  Test mode includes:

 - Password, Student Name and Student ID entry for the test file

 - Display of Introductory Message containing any specific

         instructions for the test

 - Status Bar including:

         - Elapsed time display (if there is a time limit on the test)

         - Two minute warning during timed tests

         - Display of currently-stored answer (for review)

                       - Count of remaining unanswered questions

         - Go To Next Unanswered Question function

         - Forward and Backward browse buttons

 

Completed tests are saved to encoded .FLR (result) files that can be automatically graded by WinFlash Educator.

 The capability of using compiled .FLZ (study) files created by WinFlash Educator v5.1.  These files include ALL of the related multi-media and graphics files supporting the study file as well as the .FLU file itself - all compressed into a single, easy-to-use and easy-to-distribute file.

 Q&A pairs can now be added/removed from the Priority List when in any mode - not just in Frequency Based on Priority List mode.

 Clicking on a no-longer-existing file in the Used File List now removes that file from the listing.

Confirm Delete option (Default - ON) has been added to Options|View - Miscellaneous to guard against accidental Q&A pair deletion.

Downcount of remaining Q&A pairs in pass now reflects ONLY the Q&A pairs remaining in the highest-frequency category.

 Problem that prevented running a .FLU file from a Win '95 shortcut or by double-clicking in My Computer has been fixed.

 Several usability improvements have been made in various facets of program operation.

 Wrong answer display when jumping to a new Q&A pair using Ctrl-g has been fixed.

 Bugs that could cause storage errors when working in the editor in v5.0 have been fixed.
