PCDART UPDATE by Dave Sukup

   The Windows version of PCDART is complete.  The DRPC completed programming of the test day inputs and things seem to be working very well.

   Along with the completion of the Windows version of PCDART, that brings us much closer to the DOS version of PCDART being discontinued. They have not been programming in DOS for some time now. 

   I would like to encourage everyone, technicians and producers, to migrate to the Windows version for all PCDART use. The programs are getting far enough apart that there could be some severe problems with the data base for the herds with the continued use of the DOS Version. 

   If you are planning to purchase a new computer with the Vista version of Windows you should be just fine. PCDART is operating OK with the new version of Vista. 

   If you have any questions on the above information please feel free to call district managers or DHIA Office for assistance.
