WinFlash Basic, Scholar, and Educator WinFlash is available in three forms - Basic, Scholar and Educator. The features below are divided into three categories, reflecting the three program levels. Click here to view a concise table comparing the features of the three programs. Click here to see what was new in Version 8. 
 Note: If you're a current WinFlash Educator customer using OLE Object Embedding in your Intro or RTF Support Files please click here before downloading version 9.1. The following new features are available in all three WinFlash versions: Skins!!- The v9.1 update has added a
wide array of new looks to the program! The most effective
learning tool available is now the most beautiful as
well! Graphics can be pasted directly from the clipboard into a Q or A - making it much easier to add graphics. No need to first convert the desired graphic to a file and then select that file for use in a Q or A Decks can now be opened directly into the editor from the File|Open menu Visible down-counter in timed mode Desktop shortcuts to WinFlash files can now be invoked while the program is open with another file - the open file will be closed and the file pointed to by the shortcut will be opened Clear List function added to Used Files list - remove all the files from the list and start afresh Hint and Comment buttons now 'flash' to more
easily alert the user to the presence of a related hint or
comment
The following new features are available in WinFlash Scholar and Educator: Decks can now be opened directly into
the editor from the File|Open menu and
from the Subject Outline view
The following new features are available in WinFlash Educator: Text-to-speech capability - Educator can now read your decks to you - albeit in a somewhat robot-like fashion. One caveat - the text is read in English - thus the feature is NOT useful for language study - i.e. it doesn't know how to pronounce non-English words Note: Text-to-speech relies on Microsoft's SAPI4 system being installed on the computer. If you do not yet have this capability installed you can download an installer for it from the Open Window Software website's downloads page at: http://www.openwindow.com/pages/download-flashcards.htm Export to .wav or .mp3 and use your iPod or other personal audio device to study in on-the-go situations where a PDA or laptop isn't practical. Use that commute time to work on your studies Pairs can now be imported into the deck by copying two-column text from common table formats (e.g. Microsoft's Word, Excel and Access programs) to the Windows clipboard and then importing the data directly from the clipboard. The import feature has also been enhanced by adding direct import of .csv files Improved Advanced Statistics, with more meaningful data
displayed depending on the deck's current study
mode Note: Old .FLS files will work just fine with v9.1. UNLESS THEY USE EMBEDDED OBJECTS IN THE INTRODUCTION OR .RTF SUPPORT FILES. IF YOU'RE USING EMBEDDED OBJECTS, STICK WITH V9.0 UNTIL WE ADD THIS FEATURE BACK INTO THE PROGRAM . Simply open them with the new program and the new entries for the .FLD file will be automatically created the first time you open the file in v9.1. However, files created with v9.1 may NOT be compatible when used with older versions. See Backward Compatibility in the Help file for detailed information on this topic.
