New LiveXtensions tool – Voice Recording Summary

ToolBook 10 users will now find that their LiveXtensions tools list will include a new Voice Recording Summary tool. This will quickly summarize for you which pages contain voice recordings, let you know if the Voice Recording is currently enabled or disabled for each page, and show you where the actual recording source files are located. It will even tell you if the source file is missing for each recording.

So check out your LiveXtensions feature in the Tools menu to find this new tool.

Currently the product is guaranteed to work with ToolBook v8.9, 9.0x, and 9.5. Those who obtain the product before January 1, 2010 will receive a complimentary upgrade to enable ToolBook v10.0 compatibility.
