- _CardConv_Operation_
-
- The main purpose for creating CardConv was to get collected addresses
- from the Windows CARD-Program into a mailmerge-format for MS-WORD.
- Each cardfile entry is seen as one record and ends with a CRLF.
- Each line within a cardfile entry is separated by a given delimiter.
- (MS-WORD for example uses the ';'-character).
- And that's all it does!
-
- You can use CardConv only with files which contain pure text-records.
- If you use it with card files which contain graphic informations you
- will get garbage-results.
