DISCOVER HELP
This module will assist you in validating DISCOVER card numbers.
Enter the card number, then press <enter>.
You may enter the card number with space or dash delimiters,
although any error in format will cause an error. It is probably
best to enter the card number without punctuation or delimiters.
When you press <enter>, the program will perform a checksum
evaluation of the card number using the standard algorithm. Card
numbers will either "PASS" or "FAIL". A card number that "passes"
is not necessarily valid, nor an indication that the account is
valid, open, or approved for a given transaction.
It is inadvisable to base acceptance of a card on this program's
output. Please make a proper validation of any credit card through
a direct inquiry with the issuer prior to relying upon it as
payment.
You may access additional Discover reference information by
invoking the reference file. Do this by accessing the menu and
choosing the More command. This feature may also be activated
easily by pressing <Ctrl-M> for MORE.
If you have the automatic print feature activated, the program will
direct a report to the default printer concurrently with screen
output each time you press <enter>. Likewise, if you have the
automatic file output feature enabled, your disk file will be
appended (or created) concurrently with the screen output. You may
enable both of these options at the same time if you like.
If you choose to leave the automatic print output disabled, you may
still generate a print of the report showing on the screen by
accessing the menu and choosing the RapidPrint command. This
feature may be activated more easily by pressing <Ctrl-P>. A copy
of the report showing will be immediately directed to the default
printer.
When you have finished performing inquiries for Discover, press the
escape key to return to the main program selection screen. To exit
the program quickly, you should press <Ctrl-X>.
When you have finished reading this help file, press the escape key
to return to the Discover module.
