Snowman Software is proud to announce the release of Version 4.50 in the first quarter of 2009.  This release offers a more complete integration with Microsoft Word for letter creation made possible when Microsoft began using the XML language in Word 2003.

The 4.50 release of DaySchool^® includes:

• More complete integration with Microsoft Word 2003, 2007 (and on Mac's - 2008) enabling unlimited merge letters to be saved fully formatted in Word and accessed from DaySchool^® Letter Wizards as well as from the gift/application/inquiry pages to create individual letters.
• Mac users will now enjoy automatic execution of DaySchool created files out of reports and wizards.
• Additional merge fields have been included to add more options in letter creation.
• Class reports can now more easily be created for our Montessori Schools where a class/section may span several grade levels.
• A custom filter has been added to reports to allow filtering on Blank/Not Blank fields
• List reports can be run for each individual in a household record in order to more easily create staff and board lists where the relevant contact may be either person in the household.
• The QuickAdd option has been added to more tables for ease of use.
• The Email log has been enhanced to include contact name in addition to the email address.
• Warning messages are more specific at the deletion of a record to warn user exactly what other types of records are attached (i.e.: gift records, application records, etc.)
• Child names, grades and class/sections arenow available in development reports that previously lacked child information.
• New QuickBooks-specific salutation fields have been added to DaySchool (with a global update option) to make integration with QuickBooks more seamless.
