Please be aware that this application was created some years ago and it does not run properly on computers for which the regional setting requires a comma for the decimal point and periods for thousands separators when displaying numerical values. Thus regrettably users in continental Europe, etc. would need to change their regional setting to (say) English (USA) before opening the application.
