Easily Overlooked Features - Summer 2004
This section is designed to highlight one or two features per issue that may be overlooked because they
are not made visually obvious with a toolbar button.
Check for the Latest Micro-Cap 8 Updates
In Micro-Cap 8, a new method has been implemented for updating the Micro-Cap program
file that is much easier than previous version updates. The first step is to make
sure that you are online. You will not be able to update without an active online
connection. Next, go to the Help menu within Micro-Cap and choose the Check for
Updates option. The dialog box below will appear.

The dialog box will display the current version of MC8 that you have along with the
latest Micro-Cap version available. If you do not have the latest version, simply
click the Begin Download button to start the update process. The update process
consists of the following:
1) Prompts the user to save any loaded files.
2) Downloads the new version.
3) Exits the current version and backs up the old MC8.EXE file under a different name so the user can go back to it.
4) Starts the new version of Micro-Cap.
That is all it takes to be up and running the latest version.
