This release includes a number of improvements to the handling of gene sequence searches. We will be presenting best practices for using BizInt Smart Charts for Patents with gene sequence searches at the PIUG Biotechnology meeting on Tuesday, February 7. Visit our Presentations page after the talk to see the slides.

Added support for DGENE and PCTGEN on STN.

The two GeneSeq databases on GenomeQuest are now treated as a single file, rather than separately.

The Sequence ID generated by BizInt Smart Charts is now consistent across databases on GenomeQuest and STN. Also the Sequence # portion of the Sequence ID is now presented in a separate column.

Delphion has changed the format of document numbers in their export. This release handles the new format, and generates a working link to the publisher website.

Added a new "HTML - optimized for Excel" export which preserves most formatting while only using one row in Excel for each row in BizInt Smart Charts. Some small changes were made to the other HTML exports as well to improve appearance.

Adds a command on the File menu to send the current chart to BizInt Smart Charts Reference Rows. This release can also open saved Reference Rows charts, converting the chart back to a BizInt Smart Charts for Patents chart.

Added a new export option "HTML - for Acrobat" which launches the standard HTML export directly to Adobe Acrobat.

Changed the default full-text patent links from Micropatent to the various patent offices. Added support for links to Thomson Innovation for all authorities, and for Patentscope as a target for PCTs.

Added an option when combining charts to not remove duplicate rows from the charts. All visible rows will be brought into the new chart. This is useful for gene sequence results from multiple queries, which may include the same sequence from more than one query hit.

Claims were not being included in the record for Thomson Innovation. This has been fixed.

Added a new Text property called "Fixed Width" which changes the selected cells to a Courier font and ensures that runs of spaces in a cell (such as sequence alignments) will carry over into HTML exports.

Fixed mapping of accession number column for databases from Genome Quest.

Fixed problem with our presentation of the Notes field from Orbit.com, and added support for the Rank field.

Thomson Innovation added publication dates for all family members in mid-August. This release displays that additional information.

BizInt Smart Charts now attempts to extract the sequence ID number from GENESEQ records on GenomeQuest. The resulting column is mapped to the Sequence ID column from GQPat.

Fixed links for GB publications on Patbase Express. There may still be some problems with GB publications on PatentOrder Direct, but we will continue to work on these links.

Added support for Expiration Date, Subject Matter, and Innovation Summary fields from Thomson Reuters Integrity.

Added a second version of the Notes column from Patbase, containing just the note text. The column with the complete details is now called "Notes Table".

Fixed possible crash when doing extensive copy and paste operations between BizInt Smart Charts and other applications.

Espacenet v3 linking is no longer supported. The new v5 link format is now generated for espacenet links. Note that the new espacenet links require a kind code. If a kind code isn't present with the number, the link will perform a number search.

Added a new XML Smart Data Exchange export, as well as the ability to import data in this format to add new user columns to a chart.

Cleaned up the record presentation for many databases to be more consistent between databases (fonts, order of fields, etc).

Updated processing for Patbase so that applications are presented in the same order as the publications in the family. Also extract first filing and first filing date as columns.

Fixed an error in family presentation for Thomson Innovation when DWPI data is included in the record. Also added an option to choose how to treat DWPI data when present.

Orbit's XML appears to have changed slightly for text and claims, updated the software to handle the new structure. Also added support for ECLM in FAMPAT.

Added handling for the various descriptors from Medline, Embase, and Biosis on STN. Also fixed a bug in the Accession Number extraction for Medline.

Added initial support for TOXCENTER on STN.

Silent installations are now supported. See the instructions page for more details.

Fixed a problem with the links generated for some full text patents when using the Patent Family table. The kind code was not being included, even if present in the table.

No longer maps the Sequence ID # column from GenomeQuest to the Family ID or Accession Number column in other databases.

Improved handling of markup in cells for HTML exports. Among other things, this fixes a problem where < or > characters in cells would confuse Microsoft Word about where cells ended. Also URLs at the start of any line are now converted to hyperlinks in the HTML

A small number of users upgrading from Version 3.3 to Version 3.4 found that when they opened a chart file or an import file, Version 3.3 would launch instead of the new software. This is fixed when installing this version. Check our Webinar schedule to learn more about Version 3.4.

The URL for Patbase Express direct links has changed. The software has been updated to work with the new URL.

Fixed a problem with the presentation of several fields in XML results from Questel. Also cleaned up the presentation of several fields in records in FAMPAT.

When saving a chart, the entire chart will be freshly written every time. This has been the case for Save As for a long time.

Added a new command to hide the current column.
