PDT (The Pro~Formance Data Tool) is Copyright 1987-1993, Rob W.
Smetana, and is protected by both United States copyright law
and international treaty provisions. PDT is NOT free software.
Nor is it "public domain" software or "freeware." This is a
"user-supported" version of retail software.
REGISTERED VERSIONS
───────────────────
Registered users must treat this software like a copyrighted
book. You may use it on any number of computers/CPUs, pro-
vided there is NO POSSIBILITY that it will be running on two
or more computers at the same time. Multi-user network ver-
sions, and site licenses are available. Call for details.
You may make a "backup" copy of this software for the sole
purpose of guarding against the loss of this software and
protecting your investment.
SHAREWARE VERSIONS
──────────────────
You may try out shareware (or "user-supported") versions to
determine if this program satisfies your needs. After using
the shareware version beyond the trial period (30 days or 20-25
sessions), you MUST register to continue using it -- or stop
using it. This is NOT free software. Below we'll explains
the benefits of registering.
* PDT is copyrighted software that's distributed through both
retail and shareware channels. Shareware versions let you
try it out before buying it.
* If you paid a "shareware distributor" a $2-$6 fee for a
disk that contained this program:
- You paid them for copying the disk and sending it to you.
- You did NOT pay for the software. NONE of the fees you
pay shareware distributors go to the authors of shareware
programs. If you use PDT, you must pay for it.
The Benefits to You of Registering PDT

When you register, we "say thanks" in many ways.
* First, we send you the latest version of PDT, with the
latest features. For example, we're now adding several
new features:
- ADD or SEQUENCE number fields - EXPAND/SHRINK Columns
- COMBINE files - Change file SIZES
- CHANGE RECORD LENGTH by pressing a key. This helps
you explore or determine file structures.
- SYNCHRONIZE scrolling of two file windows to easily
compare different parts of a file.
- Translate EBCDIC files to ASCII. In shareware versions
you CAN view EBCDIC files in ASCII mode but not translate
them permanently.
* Second, in shareware versions you CAN open ANY-SIZE file,
browse anywhere in it, and use all available options -- if
your cursor is above 25000 bytes. Below 25000 bytes, you
can still browse around; but all editing options are turned
off. In other words, shareware versions let you try out all
available options above 25000 bytes. But editing options
aren't available below that. Remember, the purpose of
shareware versions is to help you "try out" all available
options. You can easily do that with this version.
* Third, we'll send you a FREE copy of the PDT Tool Kit.
These teriffic BONUS UTILITIES help you create, modify,
and convert data files, or repair damaged database files.
Create.Exe Create dBase database files with any structure.
DBF-DBF.Exe Modify the structure of dBase files, create
new ones, or save subsets of data. Delete or
add fields, change field widths, etc.
DBF-ASC.Exe DBF-ASC.Exe reads dBase files and creates
ASC-DBF.Exe comma-delimited ASCII files. ASC-DBF.Exe
does the opposite: it reads comma-delimited
ASCII files and saves dBase files.
Fix_DBF.Fld These PDT structure files are invaluable to
Fix_DBF.Hdr fix, repair, or simply examine dBase files.
