Current Release
Information
Note! I check all my software before uploading with Malwarebytes
Pro and Microsoft Windows Defender Antivirus. In addition I use
VirusTotal.com to confirm as they have over 60 scanner engines.
Despite these actions you may find that your software will flag my
software because I use a source protection obfuscator which confuses
it. Please report to me via Email any cases where you find any
issue with downloading my software. When I receive
such reports I download myself and revalidate. I then contact the
anti virus software vendor with a false positive report. It
can take them 48 hours or longer to process and update their
definitions. Meanwhile you can also use VirusTotal.com for
yourself and decide if you want to create an exception in your
software.

Utility Program
The Program is currently Freeware (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeware)
and is fully operational with no limitations. The author reserves
the right to change the program status and limitations on any future
release. Existing releases will retain their status and your
right to use them but support may not be available.
DriveR8Convert enables DriveR8 Control Program users to take CSV files
(like the free web CSV files from RadioReference.com) and convert them
to DriveR8 Control Program format files. For any CSV file you can
create and save a profile for future use. With a little bit of
luck this utility will enable you to create DriveR8 format files from
all your favourite other CSV format data files.
By providing DriveR8Convert as a separate program as opposed to
integrating CSV file import into the DriveR8 Control Program I hope to:
- not destabilise DriveR8
- have a utility that I can develope as a companion to the DriveR8
Control Program
DriveR8 written in Visual Basic and .NET V3.5. The program is
currently portable and will run from any "user" directory it is placed
in. It also currently makes no registry changes or any other
system changes, no required network connections etc. so is benign in
nature and operation and protects your privacy. If a Windows
system directory, like Program Files, is chosen then administrator
rights will have to be assigned to the program. For security
reasons it is suggested/recommended that a User directory is chosen.
The program also makes no hidden calls home and will not automatically
check for program updates.

Software
and Hardware Requirements
The programs is written in .NET Visual Basic (V3.5) as a portable
applications that has no install program and does not make Windows
Registry changes.. This means that basically it will only run on
a Windows PC that has .NET V.35 installed. I've not
researched the Linux and Apple platforms to see if they can support
.NET based applications. If they do and you can get this program
to work on any other platform, e.g. Linux and under Wine then please
let me know and I will put the details here for others to see.
