Hello,
I wonder if we can persuade you to add the version id to the download file? I download to a MS directory with a couple of past versions always kept just in case, but all your versions are named the same. This means I need to create a new folder for each new version. And I always forget to do this until after I have started the download process only to find that nowhere on the notice or on the file is the version number to be found.
Help us out here, please.
Please add version number to download file

Thanks L.
This suggests that it would be more economical for the world if the user base each set up such a thing over the supplier setting it up once.
I don't think I have one other program that upgrades regularly or even irregularly that does not include the version number as part of the file name. It's standard procedure, and while I am not one that says everything that is standard procedure is the best thing to do, in this case It makes a lot of sense...think about reinstalls, etc.

We will consider adding the version number to the registered file. We will have to keep the demo download filename consistent to avoid breaking links on 3rd party sites however.

The pic is funny, but I'd appreciate it if you could avoid using it in your sig or some of these long threads would get rather cumbersome and it could become a bit overwhelming!
