- Re: SIMTEL20 CPM DATABASE
-
- The one-line descriptions contained in the files SIMCPM.ARK or
- SIMCPM.IDX with format as described in SIMCPM.INF in the SIMTEL20
- directory PD1:<CPM.FILEDOCS> are ideally suited for DBASE II. To
- construct a DBASE II database for the files, after the appropriate
- structure has been entered via the CREATE command, the DBASE II
- command APPEND FROM SIMCPM.IDX DELIMITED loads the database.
-
- The full power of DBASE II is now available for searching through the
- CPM archives on SIMTEL20. Many thanks to Keith Petersen for making
- this tool available.
