Sep 3, 2007 1.1.500

Due to compatibility problems with Microsoft Office 2007 we decided to change the internal DataPoint information in a PowerPoint presentation. As of now, presentations saved with version 1.1.500 and up are no longer downwards compatible with previous Microsoft PowerPoint versions 2000, 2002 and 2003. Once a presentation is saved with DataPoint version 1.1.500 (and up), all clients need to use the new DataPoint version.

 

Jun 22, 2007 1.1.400

Support for Vista operating system and Microsoft Office 2007. Presentations saved with Microsoft PowerPoint 2007 and DataPoint version 1.1.400 and up are not downwards compatible with DataPoint versions before version 1.1.400. The compatibility for older versions of PowerPoint remains.
