Upgrades

All hotfixes and patches are posted on our download page at http://www.durkincomputing.com/Download.aspx All minor incremental version-numbers are always free upgrades because these releases include fixes, and also minor product enhancements. All major product increments include major product enhancements and so are chargable upgrades.  

What is a build number:
The process of compiling and packaging an application is sometimes referred to as "building". A version such as 2.0.0 (Build 8) will be compiled many times before it is released. In this case it's been built and tested 8 times. Each of these "builds" are numbered so developers can keep track of changes and problems. Think of it as versions of the released version.

Every release will have a unique build number displayed on the far right side of the product entry. In this example we can see that Durkin Opportunity List Plus for ACT! has a build number of 3.0.0 (Build 93)

3    - The major product number
0    - The minor product number
0    - Product modification number 
93  - The incremental build number

As products near their final release the product number will be incremented. In this case the final release of this product will become 3.0.0 (Build 100)
