INFORMATION ON CRDFIL -- 3/15/89 ------------------------------- The latest version is now 1.3, dated 3/15/89. This version adds the capability to print the contents of the "card file" to a file of you choice or to the screen, with selection of the entries to print and in what order. Version 1.1 added editing: The capabilility to replace any entry on any card in the "card file" -- or to delete any card entirely. Basic usage is discussed in CRDFIL.DOC. Output Function --------------- The output function is a new main menu option. Usage is straightforward and prompt-driven. You can then edit the output file in PipeDream (load as "Plain Text") to create lists and perhaps even print mailing labels. This output capability will have to do until I (or someone else!) can come up with a more capable stand-alone Printer program (e.g., providing setup options and printing mailing labels directly). Edit Function ------------- The editing function is made relatively user-friendly, by on-screen instructions. So I will not provide detailed isntructions unless events prove them to be necessary (Gee, maybe no one will use CRDFIL anyway!). During editing, the new version of the file is written to a file CRDTMP in the default directory. At the end of the process, the original file is deleted and CRDTMP is renamed to replace the original file. ______________ Phil Wheeler 15 March 1989
