FEATURE: Added Method to the PopupClass - "EmptyItems" to empty the popup items when needed
CHANGE: Zero value in a TIME filed TIME(0) when converted to a Standard Time is now controlled via the SYSTEM property PROP:TimeZeroIsLongOne. The default behaviour is to convert TIME(0) to LONG(0). This is the same behaviour as previous versions of Clarion
CHANGE: If the SQLite dll is missing and tracing is enabled, this error is now written to the log
CHANGE: If you try to synchronise with an SQLite database and the IDE cannot find the SQLite dll, then a more informative error message is now presented.
CHANGE: When you had an invalid macro in a redirection file the dialog that was displayed did not display all the error text unless you resized it
CHANGE: When you have an invalid macro in a redirection file you are now only told about it once, not three or more times.

CHANGE: Clarion chain: Add new zoom ratio: Page Height
