This information can be displayed on-screen or in a printed report.

The registered version of National INNdex uses a 5,300+ motel database
(10,000+ by October 1, 1995). The Shareware version uses a 2,200+
subset of the data consisting of the full listings of two national

Updated data is available to registered users from the publisher at
any time for a nominal fee of $12.50 per update.
Users who register before October 1, 1995 will receive a coupon for a

OUR DISTRIBUTION POLICY
=======================
Diskette vendors, CD-ROM vendors and BBS operators are granted automatic
authorization to distribute the shareware version of National INNdex
unless we ask you to stop. However, because the data in the shareware
version is constantly being revised and updated, *YOU MUST NOTIFY US*
so that we can keep you supplied with the latest version (four times
per year).
To insure that National INNdex remains intact, BBS operators must
distribute it ONLY in its original form (NATINN.ZIP). If necessary, the
file name may be changed.
Other vendors may distribute either NATINN.ZIP or ALL of these files:
INSTALL.COM
README.DOC
NATINN.EXE
FILE_ID.DIZ
VENDOR.DOC
Diskette and CD-ROM vendors may include other programs or optional files
on the same diskette.
Vendors must identify National INNdex as shareware, and must leave all
copyright notices in place.
