Dialer v2.1 

This program requires VBRUN300.DLL if you do not have it, your local
BBS should.  It was not packaged with this program to conserve disk
space, or because I am lazy.

INSTALLATION:  

By now you have already UNZIPPED Dialer.zip

-  Type at the A:\> prompt INSTALL (or B:\> INSTALL)
-  Execute Windows
-  Option:  Open the Program Manager and make a new group "DIALER"
-  Open the file manager and select the DIALER directory
-  Drag DIALER.EXE from the File Manager to the appropriate program
   group under the Program Manager. (Drag all *.txt files also.)
-  Double Click the Dialer Icon.

CREATING YOUR OWN DIRECTORY:

The simple text file structure of this phone directory is ideal
because phone lists can be generated out of almost any com-
mercially available phone number data base and used with
this program.  The format is simple, NAMES on the left and
NUMBERS on the right.  

Ex.:

John Doe (719) 555-1212
John Doe [pager] (719) 443-1212

Note:  "()" for Area Code Optional

These numbers will be formatted and displayed on the Dialer v2.1
"Main" screen as:

John Doe____________________________________(719) 555-1212
John Doe [pager]____________________________(719) 443-1212

Most of the time, I find it most convenient to use the
"Notepad" under windows to edit my phone lists. (Or EDIT in DOS)   
I tend to use multiple phone books (*.txt files) to keep home, 
work  and frequently called numbers grouped together and organized.  
You do not have to enter these phone numbers in alphabetical order 
either.  Just enter them, run Dialer, and select the "Directory" 
option, and press "OK".  The next time you view the directory it 
will be organized alphabetically.  

That's about all I have to say, so I hope you enjoy this program.  
If you have any comments or suggestions, feel free to e-mail me.
