| Frequently
Asked Questions (FAQ's)
- How
will I know what version I have?
The version number appears in the lower right corner of
the flash form as you start FiSAT II. This can also be checked
from the About form accessible through the Help menu.
- We
used to download a much bigger set of files. Does this mean that
some functions have been disabled?
No. Efforts are made to re-program the main software to make it
smaller and faster. Also, some of the utilities (DLLs and OCXs)
became unnecessary in the process to run FiSAT II; hence the change
of size.
- Will
all the features of the FiSAT (DOS version) be included in the
new version?
Almost
all features of the FISAT (DOS version) will be included. The
"Shell to DOS" function is an example that will not
be made available in the new version as it is no longer appropriate.
Majority of the functions in the "Utilities" menu in
the FiSAT (DOS version) will also not be translated. These utilities
are available as standard features in the Windows environment.
- I
tried opening MUMORG.LFQ that came with the installation and I
get an error message.
MUMORG.LFQ
is a sample file using the old data structure. Users may import
this file to its new data structure to make it useable. The
SAMPLE.LFQ is the sample length-frequency data file.
- Will
the final version of FiSAT II have independent module as the BETA
version?
No.
The interdependency of the modules makes it difficult for the
authors to maintain the software. However, other analytical routines
may still develop their own and published independently. Routines
and parameters required to develop a software that will integrate
well with FiSAT II will be published mid-2001.
NOTE:
We
encourage FiSAT users to visit this website regularly to view the
progress and updates.
