Sherlock 2.0
for MS Windows 3.1
by Tony Curro
How many times have you wished you had more than 8 characters to
describe a file? Sherlock utilizes 254 character file descriptions.
Installation of Sherlock is quick and painless. However, before you
can use Sherlock with a supported application to import previously
created files, you must create and save a test file.
Sherlock seamlessly replaces the Windows Save and Open dialog boxes,
allowing you to access Sherlock's file cabinet. Here you have many
options from which to search: Document Type, Contact, Dates, Full
Text Search and more. Sherlock can be used by individuals as well as
across networks, and supports Novell Netware.
New Features include:
* Full text search to find a document that contains a specific word
or set of words.
* Control of both the 8 character DOS filename and 254 character
description of Sherlock.
* Support for optical drives and removable media.
* Files can be printed without opening them.
* Improved installation that allows you control over where the
Sherlock program and data files are stored.
Sherlock, as mentioned, performs seamlessly. But, for the times when
you wish to use the standard options of Windows, to open or save,
you can select the Override option of Sherlock, to have your system
act as though Sherlock is not present. It also allows you to move
files into and out of the Sherlock environment. Utilities are also
provided for finding and inspecting Sherlock-stored files while
working in DOS.
Sherlock is compatible with Adobe Illustrator; Aldus Freehand,
PageMaker, Persuasion and PhotoStyler; SPC Harvard Graphics; Corel
Draw, Chart and Presents; Lotus 1-2-3, Ami Pro and Freelance;
Microsoft Word, Excel, Publisher, Notepad, Write and Paintbrush; NBI
Legacy; Ventura Publisher; Wordstar for Windows and WordPerfect for
Windows.
Sherlock does help you better manage your files. It is reasonably
priced and is worth a look.
