There is a What's New topic in PowerPro 4.1 Release Candidate's
Help file. But I guess that's not much use if you mean that you
wish to read about the changes first, to help you decide whether
to upgrade.

Currently there is not a What's New available without installing
Powerpro and reading Help.

You might think we should have a separate What's New page on
the main http://www.ppro.org site, or for downloading, but that
would be a major job.
What's New in the help only has brief references, with links to the
details of each new feature (which IMHO is the best way to do it).

So it would be a new project to make a meaningful web page or
document about what is new since the previous major release;
a doc which can stand alone without the links to other topics.
That's especially true of 4.1 which has major additions.

So I think the best answer (both for the writers and for the
readers) would be to make the entire Help available as a separate
download when the final v 4.1 is ready.
Then cautious folk who are wondering whether to upgrade, or
install for the first time, can read as much detail as they wish to.

Meanwhile, you could read it without installing like this:
D/L http://powerpro.webeddie.com/download/pwrpro41.zip
unzip it into a new folder. Then open ppro41.dat with WinZip
and extract PowerPro.hlp and PowerPro.cnt into the same folder
as each other.

Better wait for the final release of 4.1 though (approx one week);
there will be a few corrections to the documentation and
maybe one or two corrections to Powerpro.

Currently v 4.1 is still a Release Candidate. It's like
the final beta, for testers, rather than the end product.
Release Candidates and betas are not linked from the front page
at www.ppro.org. They are announced only in the group, so you can
report, and read the messages about, any bugs or unfinished bits.

Although some people use them as if they are the latest release,
the main reason for uploading betas and RC's is for testers to
report errors.
