Hello,
The eQuest versions I downloaded last week from the
http://doe2.com/equest/ were the 3.60, and the 3.61b. ?is there a more
recent version available?. Some one from the list told me about the
3.61e, but I don't know whther it is a generaly available release.

Than ks,

The eQUEST download site has all releases including the latest, 3.61e. There is a version 3.62 that is being used, but it applies more for people doing energy work in Oregon because of the minimum code compliant module built-in to the program.

Use 3.61e if you are doing anything other than California Title-24. 3.61b is the first version (i believe) to have the extensive on line manual for "fingertip" answers.

3.62 is not yet officially "blessed" - still has a few bugs.

3.61e has had many of its bugs fixed - I really have no problem with it.

I?ll echo John on this. I?ve been using 3.61e for several months and have
had no problems with it so far.

However, as an Oregon user, I?ll be testing the 3.62 Oregon code compliant
version on my next analysis project.

Jaume SalomGreetings-
I have been running 6.0b for a few months. I would like to upgrade to 6.1e.

I was a littel confused with the site: http://doe2.com/equest/

Do I need to install 6.1, then 6.1b then 6.1e? How will this affect my current models.

Any guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks,
W. Peter Anderson, P.E

Peter:

COPY your Projects File and your Weather to off site files (so they still reside as well in the 3.61 folder). Then delete your 6.0b. Re install 3.61e. Your weather and Projects files SHOULD be intact (I always copy them to temp files as a precaution). 3.61e will then run your files JUST FINE. It's trying to run 3.61e files on 3.61B or back that cannot work. No backward compatibility, but no problem with forward compatibility.

$5, please...
