ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1. About the OS/2 Periodical Data Base ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Welcome to the OS/2 Periodical Data Base. This data base contains references to
OS/2-related articles in a variety of computer-industry publications. This
tool will give you magazine references to just about any OS/2-related subject
you might be interested in.
See Update 9502 - Februrary 1995 for important information about a change to
the name of this data base.
THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS FILE IS SUPPLIED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTIES
OF ANY KIND INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
There are six ways to search the data base:
Publication and Issue
The Contents lists all of the articles in the data base by
publication and issue. To search using the Contents, click on the
Previous button below or press Esc. You can return to the Contents
at any time by clicking on the Contents button below or by selecting
Contents from the Options menu.
Author or Reviewer
The name of the author of many of the articles in the data base are
included in the Author list. The name of the reviewer for many of
the book reviews and product reviews is included in the Reviewer
list. To search using the Author list, double-click on the
highlighted word "Author" or "Reviewer" above. You can return to the
Author or Reviewer list by scrolling to the end of the Contents and
double-clicking or pressing Enter to select Author or Reviewed by. To
search on both Author and Reviewer simultaneously, use the IPF Search
option in the Services menu.
You can also access the list of articles for a particular author or
reviewer by selecting the name while viewing an article's detail
entry. This is a handy way to locate other parts of a multiple-part
article, since the other parts would normally have the same author.
Type
You can search for certain types of items such as editorials or book
reviews using the Type list. To search using the Type list,
double-click on the highlighted word "Type" above. You can return to
the item type list by scrolling to the end of the Contents and
double-clicking to select Type. You can also access the list of
articles of a particular type by selecting the highlighted type while
viewing an article's detail entry.
Keywords
Keywords are assigned to almost all of the articles and other items
in the data base. As a result, searches for particular topics using
the keywords are probably the most useful. To search using the
Keywords, double-click on the highlighted word "Keywords" above. You
can return to the Keywords list by scrolling to the end of the
Contents and double-clicking to select Keywords. You can also access
the list of articles for a particular keyword by selecting a
highlighted keyword while viewing an article's detail entry.
Index
The Index is an alphabetical list of all of the authors, item types,
and keywords included in the detail entries of all entries in the
data base. To search using the Index, click on the Index button below
or select Index from the Options menu then scroll through the Index
using the scroll bar on the right. (You can also press the first
letter of the topic you want, however, due to a quirk in the current
version of IPF, this technique will also find second level index
entries which begin with the letter you press.) Once you find a
topic of interest, double click on that topic and a list of articles
for that topic will be displayed. Double click on one of the articles
to display its detail entry.
Search
You can use the Search dialog to find all occurances of any word or
string anywhere in the data base. Using Search, you may be able to
find articles on subjects which do not appear in the Index, or
articles which apply to a subject of interest but did not include the
appropriate keyword. To use Search, press Esc, then click on the
Search button below or select Search from the Services menu. If you
select Search from anywhere other than the Contents, select the All
sections radio button before clicking on the Search button to start
the search.
For more information on using the Information Presentation Facility (IPF) for
viewing documents such as this, select General Help from the Help menu.
Some detail article entries probably do not include all keywords which would be
appropriate for that article, had I reread the entire article. However, the
data base should give you some pretty good reading on just about any
OS/2-related subject you can think of. If, as you read the articles, you
discover some additional keywords which would be appropriate for that article,
please contact me. Please include the publication, issue, article name, and
page number. Thanks in advance.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.1. Distribution ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The data base is normally distributed in a compressed ZIP archive. The entire
data base, including all indexed publications, is distributed in a ZIP file
named as follows:
MAyymm.ZIP - Contains OS2MAGS.INF, the entire data base
The following subsets of the data base are also distributed separately:
OMyymm.ZIP - Contains OS2MAG.INF, the data base for OS/2 Magazine
The yymm in the name of the archive file identifies the version of the data
base that the file contains. In the archive file name, "yy" is the last two
digits of the current year and "mm" is the number of the current month.
The panels following this one contain information on how to obtain the OS/2
Periodical Data Base from these sources:
o CompuServe
o The Developer Connection for OS/2
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.1.1. Obtaining the data base from CompuServe ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The latest version of the entire OS/2 Periodical Data Base (MAyymm.ZIP) can be
downloaded from the OS/2 Developer Mag. library in the OS/2 Developers 2 forum
(GO OS2DF2) on CompuServe. The latest version of the OS/2 Magazine subset
(OMyymm.ZIP) can be downloaded from the OS/2 Magazine library in the OS/2
Vendors forum (GO OS2AVEN) on CompuServe.
To obtain the entire data base, go to the OS/2 Developers 2 forum (GO OS2DF2)
and download the file in the OS/2 Developer Mag. library named "MAyymm.ZIP"
where "yy" is the last two digits of the current year and "mm" is the number
of the current month. For example, if it is March 1995 and you want to get the
current version of the data base, you should download "MA9503.ZIP". To obtain
one of the subsets, go to the appropriate forum and download the desired file.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.1.2. Obtaining the data base from The Developer Connection for OS/2 ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The Developer Connection for OS/2 is an annual subscription program that
delivers CD-ROMs and a newsletter to developers four times a year. Starting
with The Developer Connection for OS/2 Volume 6, scheduled to be shipped in
January 1995, the OS/2 Periodical Data Base (formerly titled the OS/2 Magazine
Article Data Base) is included on these CD-ROMs. Since the CD-ROM contains the
entire data base in one .INF file, the subsets are not distributed by this
method.
To subscribe to The Developer Connection for OS/2, call 1-800-6DEVCON
(1-800-633-8266).
Due to the time required to publish the CD-ROMs, the version of the data base
on The Developer Connection for OS/2 is about three to four months old by the
time you receive the CD-ROMs.
Rather than the .ZIP archive file, the uncompressed .INF file is shipped on the
CD-ROM, to allow the data base to be VIEWed directly from the CD-ROM.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.2. Updates ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The OS/2 Periodical Data Base is updated and distributed monthly. The following
panels describe some of the more significant changes related to specific
updates.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.2.1. 9502 - February 1995 ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The name of the complete data base was changed from OS/2 Magazine Article Data
Base to OS/2 Periodical Data Base. The name of the subset containing only
articles from OS/2 Magazine continues to be named OS/2 Magazine Article Data
Base. The file in the OS/2 Developer Mag. library in the OS/2 Developers 2
forum (GO OS2DF2) on CompuServe will retain the same naming convention
(MAyymm.ZIP).
Added references to articles in one issue of NetNews, IBM's quarterly
networking magazine.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.2.2. 9501 - January 1995 ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Added references to articles in back issues of IBM Systems Journal and to
articles in Information Week.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.2.3. 9412 - December 1994 ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
A Reviewed by item was added to the data base to allow data base entries to
include the names of persons writing book and product reviews.
This version of the OS/2 Periodical Data Base is the one to be included on The
Developer Connection for OS/2 Volume 6.
The new IBM publication Software Quarterly was added.
The entire OS/2 Periodical Data Base is now available on CompuServe only from
the OS/2 Developers 2 forum (GO OS2DF2). The OS/2 Magazine Article Data Base,
containing references to articles in OS/2 Magazine alone, is the only version
of the data base available in the OS/2 Vendors forum.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.2.4. 9411 - November 1994 ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
"Personal OS/2" was renamed to "OS/2 Warp version 3.0", or more simply, "Warp
3.0" after the October 11th formal announcement of the new version.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.2.5. 9410 - October 1994 ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
"Windows version 4 (Chicago)" was renamed to "Windows 95 beta (Chicago)" as a
result of Microsoft's announcement of its formal name.
One subset of the data base was created with references to articles in OS/2
Magazine alone, for the OS/2 Magazine library in the OS/2 Vendors forum (GO
OS2AVEN) on CompuServe. This is intended to provide more useful information to
OS/2 Magazine readers who do not want to download the entire data base. Most
likely, in the future, only the subset will be uploaded to OS2AVEN and users
will be directed to OS2DF2 for the entire data base, in order to avoid the
duplicate upload. Another subset of the data base was also created, with
references to articles in the IBM publications, for those users who are
primarily interested in those periodicals.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.2.6. 9409 - September 1994 ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Thanks to editor Alan Zeichick, all back issues of OS/2 Magazine were added to
the data base.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.2.7. 9408 - August 1994 ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This was the first version of the OS/2 Periodical Data Base to be uploaded to
CompuServe. The original name of the data base was the OS/2 Magazine Article
Data Base.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.3. Format of data base entries ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Data base entries generally follow the format below:
Publication: name of publication
Issue: issue date, volume, number
type of entry title
Author: name of author
Reviewed by: name of reviewer
Type: type of item
Page: page number
Keywords:
list of keywords
used for index
description of article from magazine's table of contents or from the article's
abstract.
There is only a subtle difference between the type of entry in the data base
and the type of item listed after Type. The type of entry is intended to
provide some idea of what the item referenced in the entry contains and appears
in both the Contents and the entry itself. The type of item is intended to
provide a way to search for particular types of items, such as case studies or
articles about books.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.3.1. Types of entries ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Each entry in the data base is identified with the type of entry. The type
appears at the beginning of the lowest level headings in the Contents and in
the entires themselves, following Publication and Issue. The following types
of entries appear in the data base.
o Article
These are normal articles. If an author is listed, it will be the author of
the article itself.
o Book Review
These are book reviews which have appeared in the magazines. This type of
entry will normally include the name of the author of the book as well as the
name of the person writing the review. You can get a complete list of book
reviews by locating Book Review under Type in the Contents or by finding Book
Review in the Index.
o Commentary
o Correction
These are corrections to previously published articles.
o Editorial
These are editorials. Most editorials do not include keywords which are
indexed. However, you can get a complete list of editorials by locating
Editorial under Type in the Contents or by finding Editorial in the Index.
o Excerpt These are excerpts of other articles or other information extracted
from other places. Some of these are extracted from messasge threads on
Bulletin Board Systems (BBS).
o Figure
These are selected figures or tables which accompany an article.
o Graphics
Graphics are pictures or figures which are designed to be independent and are
not part of an article.
o Letter
These are letters from subscribers. Letters are included only in special
cases.
o News Brief
These are short items, usually containing news about recent announcements and
current events.
o Obituary
A few entries are marked as obituaries. These are not necessarily obituaries
for actual persons.
o Quotation
Some magazines reprint excerpts of user messages posted on bulletin board
systems or online services. These are identified as quotations.
o Review
These are primarily product reviews although this type is also used for an
article containing book reviews when the title of the article is not the
title of a book and/or when the article reviews more than one book.
o Sidebar
These are sidebars which accompany another main article.
o Theme
These are additional entries, not actually articles themselves, for magazine
issues which had one main theme and in which there were a number of articles
pertaining to that theme.
o White Paper
These are white papers on various topics.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.3.2. Types of items ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Some items are categorized by one of the following types:
o Announcement
o Book Review/Article
Book reviews are indicated in the Type field of an entry in the data base as
well as in the type of entry itself, so that you can get a complete list of
book reviews by locating Book Review under Type in the Contents or by finding
Book Review in the Index.
o Buyer's Guide
o Case study
o Editorial
Editorals are indicated in the Type field of an entry in the data base as
well as in the type of entry itself, so that you can get a complete list of
editorials by locating Editorial under Type in the Contents or by finding
Editorial in the Index.
o Glossary
o Graphics
o Interview
o Language specific
o Overview
o Product specific
These are articles which apply to a single product. Many of these are
product reviews.
Articles for major products, such as OS/2 itself and NetWare, are not
categorized as product specific (otherwise, just about every article would
be).
o Puzzle
These are crossword and other types of puzzles.
o Question & Answer
o Tips, Tricks, and Techniques
o Vendor specific
o What's New

for PCMCIA and intelligent advanced power management, makes OS/2 Warp the best
OS/2 for notebook computing. The next step: choosing an "OS/2-friendly"
portable PC.

Last month, OS/2 Magazine offered a quick look at OS/2 Warp 3.0. Now, it's
time to go into detail with a special in-depth look at its installation
procedure, tutorial, documentation, user-interface tweaks, 4MB performance,
BonusPak applets, and the Internet Access Toolkit. Let's throw in some quick
projects and shortcuts, while we're at it. The verdict: The best OS/2 yet, and
an incredible value for the price.

have a b: drive in this computer, how can I get rid of the object? When I
try to shred it, I get the "you can't drop that here" sign.
o Q: I have a weakness for using the MMPM Audio CD player while I work.
However, I have a Windows program that, when it starts, insists on looking at
every available drive. When it looks at the i: drive, which is my CD, I get
a message that tells me the drive is currently in use and I have to click
with the mouse to get it to go away. Can I fake Windows into not looking at
the i: drive?
o Q: I have a REXX .cmd file that I use to initialize my command-prompt
sessions. When I open a command prompt (either windowed or full-screen) I
simply type in the name of the program and it runs, setting some things up.
I can then use the session with these new items. I tried this procedure from
a program-reference object, but when I put the name of the program in the
program-reference object, the REXX file runs and the session ends. How can I
use my REXX file to initialize my sessions?

Icons, objects, shadows, and more are fodder for David Reich's analysis. This
month, he also talks about CHKDSK, Win32S, editor associations, preventing
restarts, the OS/2 Warp Resource Manager, and more.
o Q: I often hear the terms, "object" and "icon." What are the differences
between them and how do I tell them apart?
o Q: What is the difference between a shadow and a copy of an object?
o Q: Every now and then, I see files with the extension .chk on my hard disk.
How did they get there, what are they, and what should I do with them?
o Q: I have been using MathSoft Inc.'s MathCad DOS 2.5 at the DOS prompt in a
DOS VDM. No native OS/2 version of this program exists, so I inquired if I
could use their Windows 4.0 version in a Win-OS/2 session. The answer was
very discouraging:
"Unfortunately OS/2 2.1 is unable to run MathCad 4.0. MathCad 4.0 uses the
Microsoft Win32S Windows libraries. These allow MathCad to run as a 32-bit
applcation under Microsoft Windows. OS/2 2.1 is unable to run any
application that uses these libraries."
They go on to mention that IBM is considering a version that will be capable
of running applications that use Win32S. Are they referring to OS/2 for
Windows?
o Q: I've already installed OS/2 Warp, but I cleaned off my disk and did not
have DOS and Windows on the system before the installation. I want to go
back and put DOS and Windows on my system and install Dual Boot. I don't
want to install DOS and Windows and have to reinstall OS/2 Warp, but I want
to add Dual Boot.
o Q: Can you tell me why the Notepad Editor automatically associates to any
file with the .txt extension? I want all .txt files to associate with the
OS/2 editor and have checked the association in e.exe. It is currently set to
associate with any plan-text file and any file with the extensions .txt.
o Q: Sometimes, I shut down my system without closing all of the running
programs or closing open command prompts. They reopen or restart when I
reboot my system. How can I prevent them from restarting every time I boot
up?
o Q: I have heard about the Resource Manager in OS/2 Warp. What is it and how
do I use it?

Hardware upgrades
As soon as you bring your shiny new PC home, it's already obsolete. Don't you
hate that? If you have an unlimited budget, of course, you can buy a whole new
system every six months -- but if you're like the rest of us, incremental
upgrades are the order of the day. Here are pointers to OS/2's critical

Once upon a time, the ability to run Flight Simulator was the test of a PC's
"IBM Compatibility." Today, games and multimedia applications are the ones
most likely to break OS/2, or at least give it a headache. Many of us just
boot from a DOS disk when it's time to blast a few aliens -- but sometimes it's
possible to configure OS/2 and your hardware to handle pesky games within OS/2.

Where do you keep your printed customer records? Do you keep them sorted in
file-folders by type, with all purchase orders in one folder and all phone
records in another? Of course not -- you maintain your files by customer or
project, not by data type. Shouldn't you store computer data the same way?
Older operating systems made "by project" filing systems difficult, but the
Workplace Shell makes it easy.

David Reich talks about OS/2 3.0's new Launch Pad and tells us how to install

and more.
o Q: I like the new OS/2 3.0 Launch Pad, but I've put so many things in the
Launch Pad that it's grown and consumed most of my desktop. I may as well
put all the objects on the desktop, which seems to defeat the purpose of the
Launch Pad. Is tehre a way I cn make the Launch Pad smaller and still hold
the things I want?
o Q: OS/2 works just fine on my ISA system when I'm using the first two serial
ports (COM1 and COM2), but I also have COM3 and COM4. How can I get COM3 or
COM4 to work on my OS/2 system?
o Q: When I purchased my copy of OS/2, I received the 3 1/2-inch disk version,
but my computer's a: drive is 5 1/4-inch and the b: drive is 3 1/2-inch.
What can I do?
o Q: When I drag a text file onto a printer object and drop it, a window pops
up and asks me if it is plain text or printer-specific. What does that mean
and why does it ask every time?
o Q: I have some DOS programs that run fine in a full-screen session, however,
when I try to run them in a DOS Window, the system says the program is
suspended. Why is this?
o Q: I am adding a hard drive to my system. Do I need to do anything to tell
OS/2 2.1 that I have another physical hard drive connected to my system?
o Q: I want to put all my spreadsheet files in one folder so that when I click
on one, Lotus 1-2-3 is launched. How would I go about getting all my
spreadsheet files into one folder and associate the files to the program?
o Q: All documents I have seen, including on-line help, talk about the file
hpfs.ifs. My config.sys file, however, only has the following IFS line:
IFS=C:\OS2\CDFS.IFS /Q
Is the HPFS line similar? I could not find any explanation about the /q
argument. Can I REM out this instruction, since all of my hard disks are
FAT? If so, will I gain some memory?
