The October 2011 POW file causes an error when importing into CBPF. The reason for this is that Diamond placed the CBLDF as category 700. The category field specifies whether an item is comic, graphic novel, poster, etc. For years there have been 16 categories. Where 700 came from is beyond me. I've changed the category in the October file and placed the file here Download File. The international file is here International File.  Once you open this file, you'll need to save it to your hard drive then import it into CBPF (File>Save As or File>Save Page As). 

CBPF 1.12 is now available with some great new features. Download the latest version of CBPF

Diamond recently did a website update and the Previews Description file has been moved/renamed. It is still in the Data Files section (on the left). It is now under the "PREVIEWS Product Copy", and the file you want is the "PREVIEWS Product Copy" Database. This only affects those you use the description file (Ctrl-D) from the Diamond All form.

All of the video tutorial files are available by download in the video tutorial section.

Sell more products!! Version 1.07 contains the New Notables Report to help you sell more products to your customers. This report will make your customers aware of products which are available which they may not be aware of in the Previews Catalog, or even in your store. Expose your customers to posters, T-shirts, statues or books which contain great artwork.

Great News!!! Version 1.06 now contains CBPF BASIC (free version) for smaller retailers, for those who want to test the waters for more than 60-days, and for frugal (cheap) retailers. The 60-day trial is the full version, but when the 60-days have expired, if you want to use CBPF BASIC instead of subscribing/purchasing, you type "basic" at the password prompt. At any point, you may purchase or subscribe to the full version of CBPF. CBPF BASIC has the bells and many of the whistles disabled, but it is still scientifically proven to be 53,426 times better than the paper and pencil system. Specific disabled items are listed in the 1.06 newsletter.

Version 1.06 has increased filtering options on the Diamond All form.
