General
What Operating Systems can E.A.L executed on?
Currently Windows 95/98 and Windows NT are the Operating Systems that E.A.L have been tested on. Applications have not yet been tested on Windows 98 SE, ME, 2000, XP, Windows Vista nor on Windows 7. But if you download E.A.L and it works, Great!

What about Linux?
This is but one feature that still needs development. Future versions of E.A.L will hopefully be capable of handling other Operating systems as well.
E.A.L
Why should I use E.A.L?
It is not a must. But it helps.

When are E.A.L Lotto database files updated on the Internet?
Unless stated otherwise, Sundays.

How do I create a main Lotto database for my local Lottery?
You are able to create your own databases using the E.A.L Lotto Database Builder.
This is included with the E.A.L Download
E.A.L Registration
Why should I register E.A.L?
While E.A.L is fully functional with no features being disabled, registration will be most welcomed as resources are needed to make E.A.L even better.

What do I get when registering E.A.L?
You will receive a serial code for your generosity and support.
You will also gain access to the following E.A.L Plugins:
  Lotto Treasure Map
  *.csv File Importer
  Lotto Hit Tracker
  Lotto Hit Tracker (4Stats)
  Lotto Hit Tracker (4Drawn Numbers)
  Lotto Hit Tracker (4Drawn Numbers Rev.)

Before I register - Have you won the Lotto using E.A.L?
If I said yes then you most likely would like to have proof. And when you yourself do not win using E.A.L then you will be disappointed and upset in the event of having been provided positive proof of me winning the Lotto.

But if saying no then you will ask why use a Lotto software application that is unable to make you a winner.

So I leave it up to you whether you want to keep on using E.A.L as is, or if you want to register and explore E.A.L even further.

I have received my registration code, but nothing happens.
After you have obtained an E.A.L Registration Code, enter it into the fields provided. After this have been done, close E.A.L and run E.A.L again for the Registration Code to take effect.
E.A.L Sudoku Registration
What do I get when registering E.A.L Sudoku?
You will receive a serial code for your generosity and support.
You will also get to save Sudoku games as well as have access to a few additional features like clearing, locking, and setting numbers.

Can E.A.L Sudoku help me solve games?
Yes, but please note that the current E.A.L Sudoku Solver is still a work in progress. Future versions of E.A.L Sudoku will see better solving techniques being introduced.

Does E.A.L Sudoku come with a generator?
Not yet, but hopefully future versions will see the introduction of a generator.

SL4
Will SL4 still be supported?
For now SL4 database files will still be updated, but it is advised to please upgrade to E.A.L
SL4 Code
I do not have Delphi nor the money for Delphi.
I know the feeling, but there is hope with The Lazarus Project

Where can I find: Internet Component Suite
www.overbyte.be

Where can I find: Raize List Pack
www.raize.com

I do not have the money for the Raize List Pack components.
The beauty of SL4 being open source is that you are able to take out or replace components you don't have with components you do have or want to use.

Why did you use Raize List Pack?
Native VCL components was used wherever possible, but external VCL components provided the functionality SL4 required. Future SL4 developments will hopefully not use any external VCL components.
SLX Cube
Is this screensaver still being supported?
Unfortunately I have to say No as the E.A.L database application is receiving my full attention.

How do I select an image for the SLX Cube?
    To select a new image:
    Right click on the windows desktop,
    Select properties,
    Select screen savers,
    Click on settings,
    Then double click on the image you want to change.
    or
    Right click on the screen saver,
    Select configure,
    Then double click on the image you want to change.

SLX Cube keeps giving me errors and locks up my computer.
This can be due to the fact that not every Computer System is exactly the same, this makes developing applications so much more difficult. N.G van der Westhuizen attempts to make every application as bug free as possible, but due to the fact that there are just so many systems running various Operating Systems, bugs due tend to creep in. Please let N.G van der Westhuizen know if this occurred on your system.

I have unzipped the SLX Cube Screen Saver, but there are no *.ini file included.
The *.ini file is created by the screen saver itself. Also, the structure behind the *.ini file is as follow: There are 11 lines in the *.ini file, the first and second is the 'Delay' statement, then the next 7 lines are where the images are to be located. The last 2 lines are the scale section. Also the *.ini that is created is called slx_cube.ini. The slx_cube.ini file can be created/edited with any text editor. Example:
    [Time]
    Delay=1

    [Images]
    1=image1.bmp
    2=image2.bmp
    3=image3.bmp
    4=image4.bmp
    5=image5.bmp
    6=image6.bmp

    [Scale]
    Scale=5
