[CTPP] CTPP 2000 Software question

[Jonathan Lupton]

I got Windows Vista a year or two and - to my surprise - have had fewer
problems than before. In fact, the CTPP browser's performance has gotten
better. With Windows 2000, the browser would always crash when generating a
new file. I could still use it, because I could re-open the browser, and the
newly generated file would appear as if nothing had gone wrong. With Windows
Vista, the crashes have dropped from 100% of the time to about 30%, so it's
an improvement.

Don't ask me what this means - I don't know. Just wanted to share my
experiences with the group.

I want to remind you that TransCAD users have ready access to the 2000 CTPP 
data. TransCAD provides Table Choosers for Parts 1 and 2, and a Matrix 
Chooser for Part 3. The data for Parts 1 and 2 are available for download 
from the TransCAD User Center, and the data for Part 3 can be requested 
from TransCAD Tech Support.

If you have 1990 CTPP Data CDs, TransCAD has a utility for opening Part A, 
B and C tables from the Statewide Element and Part 1, 2 and 3 tables from 
the Urban Element.

There are also TransCAD Table Choosers for ACS data. We are building the 
Table Chooser for the 2008 ACS 1-year data that were released yesterday and 
will do the same for the 3-year data that will be released next month.
