BUG FIXES IN THIS UPDATE The fixes in this update for Atlas GIS 4.0: 1) LINE STYLES - Includes a fix to the line style bug where several of the line styles were either missing from the line style picker or were not the correct line style. When selected for a feature, these line styles would generate significant display errors and could not be used. This issue is fixed. 2) SHAPE FILE RECORD HEADERS- Fixes a problem with the way that Atlas GIS 4.0 would export a geo layer to a shape file; now the record headers are properly written with the 'Big Endian' format. This error would not effect shape files being read into ESRI's ArcView software, but could have caused an error when working with other applications that read shape files (*.shp). 3) Atlas Reports - This update will install any missing Atlas Reports files, if necessary. C. ENHANCEMENTS TO ATLAS GIS 4.0 IN THIS UPDATE 1) A new Query Builder application is included in this update. This application is run through FILE | SQL ACCESS to connect to spreadsheet, MS Access, and other ODBC databases such as SQL Server.
