IMPORTANT NOTICE:

Do you compile your own custom UnitOps, K-values, or pipe methods? Advances in CHEMCAD 7.1 made it necessary for users of usradd.dll to recompile with the new usradd workspace before loading that .dll into CHEMCAD 7.1 or later. Please contact Chemstations at 1-800-CHEMCAD or support@chemstations.com for more information about this important maintenance task. We will be happy to assist you, and to notify you of future changes that affect UAM users.
