ARM 7.3.5

New dialog to enter data header items to match for selecting data columns to include in an AUDPC transformation. Default match entries of pest code, rating data type, and rating unit are automatically selected from the data column to convert that was specified in Data Transformation dialog.
New 'Save Default' and 'Clear Default' buttons on Plot Data View, with actions similar to site/protocol description view.
Automatic resize of inserted site and protocol description grid columns when the auto size option is active.
Changed so number or interval entry fields in data header are sorted into number order (for Plot Data View).
Changed so trial map correctly show the deletion after deleting a blank plot (a display problem only).

Option to automatically refresh study list each time ARM starts, to remove deleted studies from list (General tab of Tools - Options).
Optimized so large study lists open faster.
Fixed problem that study list columns were not formatted correctly after Refresh when columns were not sorted in the default order.
Fixed error 9 that could sometimes occur when rebuilding study list.

Option on Print Reports dialog to use study list to select a batch of studies for printing reports.
Option in Global Settings dialog to print each report set to new Excel workbook instead of adding to an existing workbook.
Changed so an invalid time entry such as 90:00 does not stop printing of a site or protocol description report.
Changed Spray/Seeding Plan report to not calculate products for undiluted liquid formulation (such as AL) applied on "per volume" basis, such as for %V/V and %W/V rate units. This is not a logical combination, so it is better to not calculate and reduce the chance of application errors.
Changed AOV Means Table report so when printing untreated value from original data column for a calculated % relative data column, the check mean is now formatted using standard ARM rules for decimals accuracy.
Fixed Error 9 for AOV Means Table report if a "percent relative" transformation ID in ARM Action Code uses a relative column number, such as TAB[-1], for option to print untreated from original data column for % relative transformations.
Fixed problem that Spray/Seeding Plan report was not forced to print separate pages for each application code for a study that includes canopy height rate units.

Added Utilities commands to restore original ARM and ST tutorial studies, in case a user edited the studies while using a tutorial (only available for GDMDef study definitions).
Added hidden rate unit UL/HA (US = UL/A) and conversion from MG to KG, to use for calculating certain Other Rates.

Ignore blank attachment lines imported from an EDE, and automatically delete empty attachment rows when saving or exporting a study. Also changed logic for updating attachment counter during import so attachments can be merged from EDE.
Automatically insert subsamples in trial imported from EDE when a number of subsamples entry in data header is larger than number of subsamples defined in the EDE. For example, an EDE may not contain subsamples when data column headers are defined with no data, yet the original DAT may have contained subsamples.
Recalculate Other Rate when importing an EDE. (Treatment refresh occurs during EDE import, so rate recalculation is also needed.)

Added error message while creating a trial when reading randomization file that assigns more than one treatment to one block/row and column position. For example, "Randomization file is corrupt: Treatment 1 and 3 are both assigned to Block/Row=1, Column=1". ARM stops creating a trial when the randomization error is detected.
Ignore blank attachment lines imported from an EDE, and automatically delete empty attachment rows when saving or exporting a study.
Automatically insert subsamples in trial imported from EDE when a number of subsamples entry in data header is larger than number of subsamples defined in the EDE. For example, an EDE may not contain subsamples when data column headers are defined with no data, yet the original DAT may have contained subsamples.
Changed so corrupt Backup.log does not cause an Error 62 that prevents opening trials.
Fixed problem from version 7.3.4 that caused some user option settings to be lost the first time ARM runs after installing the previous 7.3.4 update, or after selecting Reset button on Tools - Options in 7.3.4.
Fixed problem that site description information could be merged into the wrong fields when merging studies using different site description format (*.frm) versions.

Fixed problem that could result in wrong mean comparison letters for trial means calculated from trial data columns with missing plots in replicate number 2 or larger.
Fixed problem that ST Summary Option to automatically select treatment fields to match did not work.
