FED 1.11 Form Editor, Filler, and Printer Utility
DOS FORM EDIT PRINT FILE FIELD
FILES: fed111.arj
Author: Jim Hass
Registration: $15.00
A flexible and easy-to-use form filler program. Create a form with any
text editor, then use FED to fill it out and print it. If the command
line is empty or a directory is entered without a file name or there
are wild card characters (* or ?) in the file name, FED will pop up a
list of files to choose from. Wild card characters will restrict what
files are displayed in the list. If the keyword ONLY is specified after
the file name you will not be able to choose another file from inside
the program.
The file name entered on the command line is a standard ASCII text file.
FED uses the file as a form with input fields designated by a series of
underlines with a leading and trailing space. The user will be able to
enter text into the fields. The form can be printed or saved to a file
with the information that was entered into the fields. The input file
itself is not changed unless you overwrite it when saving to a file.
There are three types of files you can save: a standard text that will
be exactly the same as the printed output, a data fields only file, and
a special Form File that contains the form and field information. The
Form File can be read back into FED any time with the data entered into
the fields still in place. This is a way to place defaults into the form.
You will be able to add, change, and delete information in the fields
then print it and/or save it again.
These are the file and input field limits of the form editor program:
Maximum number of records (lines) in the form (file): 800
Maximum number of characters displayed from one line: 80
Maximum number of input fields on one screen (24 lines): 120
Maximum number of input fields in complete form: 2000
Hardware Requirements: IBM compatible computer, 256K RAM.
Other Requirements: MS-DOS 2.0 & higher or DR-DOS 3.4 & higher.
