WHAT IT IS
StarSearcher is an easy to use contact management system designed for the
professional entertainer. The Shareware version comes with a database of
500 industry contacts. The registered version provides another 3500 con-
tacts. StarSearcher provides appointment calendars, booking schedules, and
a simple text editor with mail merge capability from the contacts database.
STARSEARCHER was designed by a professional entertainer.
WHAT YOU NEED
StarSearcher requires a 640 K IBM compatible computer with a hard drive.
While it may be run on an XT class machine, acceptable performance requires
a 10 MHZ 80286 or faster machince. StarSearcher supports more than 100
printers. StarSearcher may be run on CGA/EGA/VGA or Hercules (tm) monitors.
A special VGA FONT is provided for VGA systems.
INSTALLATION
If you obtained StarSearcher on Disk it will be in a self extracting .EXE
file. Create a directory on your hard drive (Ie. C:\STAR) and then create
a sub-directory called \DATA. Copy the STAR.EXE file to the first (top)
directory. Run STAR.EXE and all files will be extracted. Copy all .DBF
files to the \DATA subdirectory, then erase them from the \STAR directory.
A program called STARINST.EXE may be used to install StarSearcher on any
other drive/directory.
RUNNING STARSEARCHER
StarSearcher may be started by invoking one of two startup files. STAR.COM
should be used with CGA/EGA/or Hercules (tm) Monitors. STARVGA should be
used with VGA systems. Do not use STARVGA on non-VGA systems.

Registration is only 35$ US. The registered version provides a database of
an additional 3500 industry contacts. A registration form may be printed
from the UTILS menu in the Shareware version.
