Itinerary Generator BETA Testers

Post by MikeT »

I have been working on a program called the “Isle Royale Itinerary Generator”. It generates an itinerary for going to the island based on user selections along with other items such as a trip package, a sample permit and a few other things. It allows you to create different itineraries, save them, then load them to compare various routes and dates. I also found that it is a great way to create previous trips and make a full library of all of my trips to the island.

It is a Microsoft program so sorry to all the MAC users.

I began working on it August of last year and it is finally at a point to begin Beta testing. I have a few Beta testers, but would like to get a few more.

I have tested it as best I can, but I know the program and it is pretty much automatic to me. I need some other eyes to find bugs and/or things that should be different.

I cannot give you anything for doing it except a free copy and I will credit you in the User's Manual.

To see the User's Manual explaining what the program does and to see screen shots, go to:
http://www.isleroyale.info/ig_online_support.html

Let me know if you are interested. I have to limit it to about 5 people for now so I can respond to emails regarding problems and suggestions.

Thanks!

I'm your huckleberry.

Just let me know if you still need the help and I'd be happy to test it.

Hello all,
The program is officially released! A thank you to all the Beta testers for putting the program through its paces, They were: Nancy Tremblay, Rob Hook, John Ingersoll, John Heneghan and Richard Kaufman.

A major thank you goes to Tom Voigt for his extremely detailed testing of the program and providing great information and suggestions. He added a lot to the project and gave me confidence in the overall functions. When he said "it is solid", I finally felt confident in releasing it. Thanks Tom!

As part of the program release, I had to add it to the Isle Royale Info website. Before doing this, I wanted to re-vamp the website to deal with the all of the devices people now use. This has been on my mind for awhile, but it was a lot of work. So, finally, I bit the bullet, and created and coded isleroyale.info redesign #5. This revision should be friendly to any device from an I-phone, tablet and a large screen computer. I hope it is anyway. I have tested it at many screen sizes and done the best I could. PLEASE let me know via the "Contact Form" at the bottom of each page if something is wrong.
