- Welcome to FindIT:
-
- Overview:
-
- FindIT is a program that was initially designed to keep track of what items or names are in which
- Database. Through my years of owning a Psion (especially) with the Series 5 I have found it so
- frustrating when looking for a name of a person or an item you always have a tendency to go to the
- wrong Database first.
-
- FindIT keeps a record of names/items and allows you to attach the name of a database to that record,
- therefore next time you want to find that person/item you just go to FindIT then type their name into
- the keyboard ( or "Find" in the usual manor Psion F or press the Space Bar) and then press enter, FindIT
- will then look for that item and display it at the top of the screen, or it will display all of the entries in
- the file if you have chosen to search by "Multiples".
- If you need to go to that item in the Database you just "Tap" the screen where the item is displayed or
- just press "Enter". On single entry finds you can press Ctrl J to go to the next item displayed.
- For further details please read the file "FindIT_Inst" which is the Word file.
-
- Manual Installation:
- Once unzipped create a new folder on your Psion called "\SYSTEM\APPS\FIndIT" on any drive and
- copy all of the files except the "FIndIT_Inst" and the "SysRAM1.opx" files into it. Now move the file
- FindIT_Inst to a more commonly used folder this is the Word file and you may want to access it more
- often.
- The file "SysRAM1.opx" must be placed in a folder called "\SYSTEM\OPX\" and this must be on the
- internal drive.
-
- Unzipping using S5Zip:
- If you are unzipping FindIT on your Psion, using S5Zip, go into S5Zip and open the FIndIT.zip archive.
- Once all files are displayed highlight them in the usual way and choose "Extract File". Leave the top
- line of the extract file dialog blank, choose which drive you want FIndIT to go onto then make sure the
- "Restore Folder" option is checked. (i.e There is a tick in the box), now just press enter. S5Zip will
- now unzip FIndIT placing all files where they should go. The Word file for FIndIT will go into the top
- level system screen folder. If you have unzipped to the "D" drive you must now move the file
- "SysRAM1.opx" on to the main internal drive, which should be kept in a folder called
- "\SYSTEM\OPX\".
-
- Unzipping on a PC:
-
- To unzip FIndIT on a PC just unzip the whole file into a folder of your choice. Make sure when
- unzipping you set the unzipper to "Discard Directory" information Otherwise it will create sub
- directories of the folder you are unzipping into.
-
- Once unzipped create a new folder on your Psion called "\SYSTEM\APPS\FIndIT" on any drive and
- copy all of the files except the "FIndIT_Inst" and the "SysRAM1.opx" files into it. Now move the file
- FindIT_Inst to a more commonly used folder.
-
- The file FindIT_Inst is the Instruction/Word file and you may need to access it more often so it helps to
- have to hand.
-
- The file "SysRAM1.opx" must be placed in a folder called "\SYSTEM\OPX\" and this must be on the
- internal drive.
-
-
- That's it!
