The Millionaire Game 1.2
The long waited update with major features added!
Notice: The version numbering will be different compared to the previous versions where the build number is included. For example, when a patch is released for 1.2, it will get version number 1.2.1, 1.2.2 and so on.
Make sure you also have a back-up of your database (& application folder) in case something goes wrong!
Also: SQL Server Express (or better if you have it) is required now to run the software. This version is much more usable than only the LocalDB part which is officially only for developing purposes. Installer is included in the package.
