This document contains PRO DEV Software's message to Disk Copying and
Bulletin Board Services.
Version 3.0 is a MAJOR UPGRADE release adds additional label stock support.
Added 5 reports, more directory reports and now prints USA postal service
bar codes. Non-North American users can ajust for longer paper stock.
Version 3.0a corrects an index problem and adds better memory management.
Version 3.0b adds the Reference Number field to the Child records.
Version 3.0c adds ability to print Status and Spec. Info Code tables.
Improved MS-DOS 6.2 support.
First of all, thank you for carrying my Shareware software in your Disk
Copying Service catalog or on your Bulletin Board Service. You are a
vital link in the Shareware distribution process.
You MAY . . .
1. This on-disk letter authorizes you to include the enclosed
ProDev*MEMBER Version 3.0a disks of Shareware software in your
Shareware Cataloging and Disk Copying Service. This is a
non-exclusive authorization.
2. This is NOW A TWO DISK SYSTEM! You can combine the 2 disks onto one
720k 3.5" disk for those requiring 3.5" disks. NOTE registration fee
is $55.
3. You may sell disks containing copies of this software as long as you
do NOT imply to your customers that this is "free" software. It is
best if your catalogs make it clear that this is Shareware software
that the end user must register with PRO DEV Software to continue
using beyond the evaluation stage. If you list the registration fees
in your catalog, DO NOT use words like "Donation", "Contribution", or
other such words. It is a REGISTRATION FEE or COST of $55.
4. If you are a Disk Copying or Bulletin Board Service and you obtained
this software from other than PRO DEV Software, you may not have the
latest version. You are encouraged to write or call PRO DEV Software
and ask for the latest version.

616-788-2243 (8:00-5:00 M-F Eastern Time) CompuServe PPN: 72617,1266
5. You may add your own files to this disk as long as none of them give
any impression that this Shareware software is "free".

You may not . . .
1. DO NOT remove any of the following files from the disks (or compressed
file if you are a BBS):
VERSION3.0A MEMBPROG.EXE MEMBDATA.EXE MEMBDOC.EXE PRINTERS.EXE
INSTALL.EXE QUIKSTRT.DOC VENDOR.DOC REGISTER.DOC README.DOC
LHA213.EXE
2. If you are a Disk Copying Service, please do not further compress the
above files. If you package 1.44m disks, you are welcome to carry one
of my competitors products on the disk as I beat any competition.
Naturally, a BBS operator will compress the entire system as required.
3. You may NOT replace the MEMBDOC.EXE SCRNCHed documentation file with
the ASCII MEMBER.DOC file or another form of archiving, packing or
ziping. If you are a BBS, archive/zip the MEMBDOC.EXE file along with
the other files WITHOUT first unSCRNCHing the MEMBDOC.EXE file. This
is because my INSTALL program expects the SCRNCHed file. The same
applies to LHARCed MEMBPROG.EXE, PRINTERS.EXE and MEMBDATA.EXE files.
I also encourage you to give this full featured system the write-up it
deserves in your catalog. The next page gives my "unbiased" {grin}
suggested catalog descriptions. I really get discouraged when I see
catalogs that just say "ProDev*MEMBER Church Membership system". It is
really a powerful, low registration fee system that powerful enough for
ANY sized church.
Now that I have gotten all of that legal stuff out of the way, let me tell
you what is in ProDev*MEMBER.
This system allows a church to track any number of members, non-members,
former members, shut-ins, visitors and affiliated missionaries. By using
a relationally linked child data base, information can be kept on zero to
ANY number of children per member. Complete Member/Child talent, duties,
teaching expertise and ANY other information can be stored as free-form
text or as Special Information Codes allowing complete customization of
this information. The program can intelligently search and report on ANY
desired information.

The church secretary can print single or all records as dozens of
different label runs with a variety of filters. Rotary Card File cards
can be printed on all or selected records.
Many different report selections with a variety of filters will meet the
demands of the entire church staff. Two of the report selections produce
4 different church directories. All label runs and reports can optionally
be printed to the printer, screen or to a disk file. The disk files can
be printed directly to the word processing sub-directory for easy import
into word processor documents or merge files. Even Mail Merge data files
can be generated for ANY type of word processor. Full support of ALL
types of paper and label stock is supported, including for laser printers.
The Givings or Offerings for up to 6 categories can rapidly be posted to a
transaction file. Even open plate and special funds! When the program
totals match the total funds collected, the transaction file is posted to
a permanent Giving data file. All or individual Quarterly, Annual (or any
date range) Statements can be printed such that they can fit any sized
windowed envelope.
1. One Liner Description
(disk #) ProDev*MEMBER Version 3.0a - Extremely full featured Church
Membership Giving & Talent system for any size of church.
2. Complete Description
(disk #) ProDev*MEMBER Version 3.0a is an excellent full featured
Church Membership Giving, Attendance & Talent tracking system for any
size church. The latest in pull-down menus and constant on-screen
"what to do next" instructions along with context sensitive F1 Help
and pop-up user definable code tables make the system highly intuitive
to learn and use. The system uses dBASE III+ compatible files. The
stand-alone program does NOT require the user to own other data base
software. The system will keep track of any number of members,
non-members, former members, shut-ins, visitors and affiliated
missionaries, even with multiple addresses per person. By using a
relationally linked child data base, information can be kept on zero
to ANY number of children per member. Givings or Offerings are easily
posted and a complete range of Giving Statements can be printed.
Complete talent, duties, teaching expertise and ANY information can be
stored and selectively reported. At the LOW registration of $55, this
is a BEST BUY!
