- *** ADDRESSES and DATES ***

-
- Addresses and Dates is the result of about 300 hours of evening Microsoft
- QuickC programming. A pair of programs operate together. AND.EXE allows you
- to maintain a sorted list of acquaintances, their addresses, phone numbers,
- birth dates, and anniversaries. If initiated from your AUTOEXEC.BAT file,
- REMIND.EXE will remind you of dates approaching each time you reboot your
- computer until the dates pass by.
-
- While designing this system I tried to maintain a simple, effective user
- interface which takes advantage of the following PC keyboard's editing keys:
- INSERT, DELETE, HOME, END, PAGE UP, PAGE DOWN, TAB, backTAB, BACKSPACE, the
- arrowkeys, ESC, and the general function keys (F1-F6).
-
- The reporting capabilities include a phone list, a full data listing and
- various ways of printing mailing labels.
-
-
-
- The unique capability of this program is that it REMINDs you of birthdays and
- anniversaries. Make sure to put a call to REMIND in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file!
- Make sure that some birthdays or anniversaries occur in the near future.
-
- This program was written on an AT compatible with a Hercules compatible
- display card and a 9-pin Epson printer. It has been tested on XTs and
- PCs and their compatibles. CGA, EGA, and VGA display cards have been tested
- but there are no guarantees of it's performance. A reference to ANSI.SYS
- in your CONFIG.SYS file is required!
-
- This demonstration version will not support more than 5 families. Try all
- the features and see if it would be a useful program to have. I am working
- on some enhancements and will send you a copy of my latest for only $12. The
- software received will contain at a minimum:
-
- * The ability to store up to 100 families,
- * The ability to print only selected families during all reporting
- by placing a check mark on the screen,
- * Color support, and
- * The absence of this annoying introduction!
