This program was designed as an aid in Proof-of-Performance testing.
Originally
built for personal needs, it has been modified for free use as a general release.
Please read the instructions included in the help file before
use. It uses a spreadsheet format to create a familiar interface.
Some details, however, may not be intuitive. As an example,
the default workbook
that opens with the program must be "saved as" the testing season name
(such as "winter02.bwb", "summer03.bwb", etc.)
before saving the test data/calculated results. Why? The
test database is saved
as a file format that is dependant on the workbook and cannot
be opened independently. It is not advised to use the default Popmann workbook
directly to manipulate date as a precaution against corrupting this
template.
While Popmann itself was
developed on a 16-bit platform (filenames are limited to eight
characters), the
installer linked below is a 32-bit installer for Windows 95 - XP. This
should be the preferred installer for most of today's computers.
It
will create shortcut icons and an uninstaller. No problems have been reported with operation on 32-bit
operating systems to date. If enough interest exists
to run the program on Windows 3.x, a simple 16-bit installer will
be added. The program occupies less than five megabytes
of hard drive space (hardly a burden on today's computers).
Click on the link below and
chose "save to" when the download window presents a decision
prompt. Save the installation file to the
desired location where it can later be launched.
