    Rename the PIFD database to PIAssetFrameworkDb

    Disable intellisense ("autofill") feature in PSE

    PI Archive File header should keep track of last modified recno

    The PI Archive File should keep track of the last modified RecNo. This would make cases where historical archive last modified times are updated (and potentially causing large backups) much easier to track down. In particular, this feature combin...

    New Date and Time Functions

    I like the new feature of providing an output timestamp via analysis. To use this even more I would like to see more date and time functions: - AddMonths(), AddDays(), AddHours(), ... for adding or subtracting time ranges. - DateSerial(yy, mm, dd ...
