DW2XLS 3.0 release notes.

Important notes.
- As of DW2XLS 3.0 a DLL, PB2XLS.DLL,  is used as part of the library.
  It must be distributed with your application in order the export to work.

New features in 3.0.
- Removed the exponential dependence of export time 
  depending on number of rows. Now it's a linear dependence. 
- More support for nested DWs and/or expressions for X,Y,W,H.
  In the previous versions, some combinations of coordinates and expressions
  could cause improper cell merging in XLS.
- Excel columns that are tighter than the minimum column width 
  are merged with the next column and rows that are shorter than 
  the minumum row height are merged with the next row.
  This is controlled by n_dwr_service_parm parameters, 
  id_min_width and id_min_height.

Known issues.

These issues will be fixed in future releases.
- Size of resulting cells is not exactly the same as in the original DW,
  but the proportion is preserved (this comes from 2.X).
- SlideLeft, SlideUp are not supported yet.
- AutoSize Height (for columns) is not supported yet.

The main goal of 3.0 release is to provide the same functionality having moved the 
converting code from PB (in 2.X) to a C++ DLL.
Further subversions (3.1 etc) will be mainly addressed to speeding up 
the conversion.
