values by entering a <RETURN>.)

.TX2 *** PC-LIBRARY PROGRAM DESCRIPTION AND EXPLANATION *********
You can use the PC-LIBRARY program to create files of, and print
sections of, the text source and variable files used by PC-FORMS.
That program is simple to use. It will prepare:
1 - The Text Indexes
2 - The Text Library
3 - The Variable Prompts List
4 - The Variable Help Messages
It is also used to create or update the ".VBL" file of a forms
library. After the text sections are entered in the .LEX files
it assists in entering the variable prompts and arranging the
text headings into text indexes. There are no variable entries
for this exercise. Notice that the text was immediately
displayed on the REVISED TEXT screen.
.TX3 ** CREATING YOUR OWN TEXT LIBRARIES ***********************
Additional information regarding the PC-FORMS and PC-LIBRARY
programs is available in the General Program Help screens and the
PCFORMS.DOC and PCLIBRY.DOC user manuals.
You can learn how to create your own text source and variable
files by studying the manual sections entitled VARIABLE FILES,
TEXT FILES and SOURCE TEXT RULES.
If you are interested in having us prepare custom libraries of
the forms you regularly use or, if you would like to attend a
seminar on using PC-FORMS and PC-LIBRARY, please let us know by
calling (405) 840-3563. Ask for Bill Blackledge.
There are no variable entries for this exercise.
