| 2002-12-31, V1.6, HTML Form V1.6 | |

| A021001#03 | Addition: Result help. |
| A021001#04 | Addition: HTML form version control thus avoiding calling a current Meva version with an old form which could result in subtle errors. |
| A021001#05 | Adaptation: Hide main diagonal of matrices with identical field types. |
| A021001#06 | Addition: Show names of correlated fields inside the matrices as a tool tip whilst going with the mouse over - useful for large matrix tables not fitting onto the screen. |
| A021003#01 | Adaptation: 2nd field and PMID can now be switched off in text mode as well. |
| 2002-09-16, V1.2 | |
| A020916#01 | Adaptation: Alphabetic sort of correlation matrices taken back and replaced by frequency sort. |
