 Version 2.4.3 fixes issues with installation and use under Win 7 64-bit.
-The following changes were made between versions 2.3.0 and 2.4.2.
-  * Display of stored data, as a percentage of maximum capacity.  This may appear as a single figure, such as 49%, or a dual figure such as 55%/49%.  This latter form shows both the current value, with unused space, and the value that would apply if the database was reorganised.
-  * The ability to process databases that have one or more space-files missing.  These missing files can be re-created by using the Reorganise process.
-  * Additional hints of the actions that need to be taken to repair a faulty database.
-  * On the Maintenance sheet, a display of both the number of records and data occupancy, as a percentage of the total allowed. These figures can be displayed for other size-types (1,3,4,6 or 9 Mb) that can accomodate the data present.
-  * The ability to create a copy of the database, but having a different size-type.
-  * A number of improvements and fixes affecting the displays and other functions.
