BULLETIN BOARD README FILE

This Bulletin Board Program is a modification to the bulletin.prg that
was posted to the Nantucket Forum.  I have revised it to work on our
Novell Network.   The program will search the current directory for
files with a "txt" suffix.  The *.txt files are ordered by Date (most
recent on top), this is so the End-Users can find the latest bulletin
first.


The application is compiled using Clipper 5.01. No particular switches
are used.  Although very simple, this program is very important to us.
I hope other Network Administrators can use this system as well.  The
Application is in the public domain, so you use it at your own risk.


How we set it up:

	SYS4:\SUB-DIRECTORY\APPLICATION\BULLETINS.EXE 	FLAG "SRO"
	SYS5:\SUB-DIRECTORY\BULLETIN\*.TXT Files      	FLAG "SRO"

Every week the System Administrator creates a new bulletin and copies
it to the SYS5:\SUB-DIRECTORY\BULLETIN\*.txt Sub-Directory.

PLEASE NOTE: Your bulletin files must have a "txt" suffix.

If you want a bulletin board system that can be written to as well as
read, check out the Nantucket Forum (NANFORUM). File BULL2.ARC.
