Version 2.11 Gold: (3 September 2007) Version 2.10 Gold: (22 June 2006)
1) The template detects the status of the Disable Checkbox in relating templates (SelfService, HyperActive and Winevent) and handles the GPFReporter functionality accordingly.

Version 2.09 Gold: (7 June 2006)

1) Set defaults correctly (in global extension template). GPF Logfile name is set to 'GPFReport.log', Append to LogFile is checked, as well as Restart Program and Close Quietly on Exit.
2) Global extension prompts formatted correctly (so that test doesn't spill over the tabs) and defaults clarified (for Email Options and MessageBox Options).

Version 2.08 Gold: (6 June 2006)

1) Rectify Global Extension template description.

Version 2.07 Gold: (5 June 2006)

1) New csGPF.tpw (sub template version 1.51) - fix for interference with other templates (using the Object01.tpw template)

Version 2.06 Gold: (18 May 2006)

1) Relabelled the Show Stack Details checkbox.

Version 2.05 Gold: (10 May 2006) 

1) Removed Help buttons from the template.
2) Requires at least SelfService 3.09 (Alternative object template variable) and WinEvent 3.33 (Template version variable)
3) Uses #context to find the SelfService variable instead of #alias (causes IDE to GPF sometimes).
4) Faulty class snuck out the door during new installation process build, so not all code was being generated into the derived classes.
5) ObjectWriter now generates () in a procedure definition where there are no parameters. This will result in embedded handcode in derived methods being orphaned. Cut and paste the derived code to the new embed positions.
