- PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
- _______________________________________________________________________
-
- Household Register is a full featured menu driven easy to use program
- that maintains a detailed list of everything you own. Each item is
- automatically categorized by location, category, owner and item. The
- user can easily customize the pop-up menus for the Location (24 sel-
- ections), Category (24 selections) and Owner (8 selections) fields.
- The pop-up menus can be turned off if desired and data can be typed
- directly into the three fields rather than using menu selections.
- Each database can hold 99,999 items the program supports an unlimited
- number of databases. On screen help is provided for each screen and
- help lines are automatically displayed for each data entry field.
-
- The comprehensive reports section of the program lets the
- user examine every aspect of his/her possessions. The total value
- report lists the inventory items and computes the total value of the
- inventory using purchase price or replacement price. A five page
- summary report computes the total value by category, location or
- owner and provides many valuable statistics about the inventory, such
- as the percentage change between the purchase price and replacement
- price. A warranty report is also provided that will prove invaluable
- in tracking warranty information. A total of nine reports are avial-
- able which can be listed to the screen, printer or a disk text file.
- Also reports can be printed on continous form Index or Rolodex cards.
-
- The full featured and comprehensive search/selection module lets
- the user list only those itmes that meet the selection criteria.
-
- A sample database is included to allow quick examination of the pro-
- gram.

- HARD DRIVE:

- should not be used for running the program. You should first make a

- Household Register program and associated files. The following DOS
- commands will create a sub-directory for Household Register:

- Once you have created the new sub-directory, select the new sub-directory
- by entering:
-
- C>CD\HR
-
- Insert the Household Register distribution disk into drive A. Next, copy
- the contents of the Household Register distribution diskette onto your
- hard disk by executing the following command:
-
- C>COPY A:*.*
-
- NOTE: If your Household Register disk is not in the A drive, you must use
- the drive letter of the disk that contains the program in the above state-
- ment, ie if loading from the B drive use C>COPY B:*.*. Also if you hard
- drive is not C, substitute the correct letter for C.
-
