Is it a bird? Is it a Plane? . . .
Every few years a product hits the shareware field like a rocket.
Compared to anything you've every seen in a shareware library it's:
* More powerful
* More versatile
* More efficient
* More effective
It's just happened again!
Introducing
*** SR-Info ***
The most powerful data-oriented language
ever in the Shareware Market
More than 50,000 copies of VP-Info have been sold worldwide since its
1986 release by Adam Osborne's Paperback Software International. Now
published by the original developers, an upgrade to the language has
just been released as shareware under the name SR-Info and the rave
reviews are already coming in, including highest-possible "trophy cup"
rating by Public Brand Software.
Last year the PC Week Poll of Corporate Satisfaction found VP-Info
(with fewer capabilities than the new SR-Info) ranked first among all
database languages in value, among the leaders in documentation,
ease of programming and ease of the user interface, and ahead of dBASE
in all 12 poll categories! So if you think of dBASE, FoxBase and
Clipper as the last word in corporate-quality database languages,
consider this:
1. Major aerospace, engineering and scientific companies rely
on Info for accurate mathematics beyond the ability of any
database language running on any DOS machine
2. Its unique data-entry processing methods make creating
accurate WYSIWYG screens with full verification quick and
easy
3. Form letters, labels and other output can include data from
up to six data files simultaneously, incorporate complex
computations, be automatically wordwrapped, and be printed
to any printer, disk file or DOS device
4. You can handle over 65,000 records per file, with hundreds
of fields and thousands of bytes per record.
5. Its versatile report generator handles up to six related
data files, up to three levels of totalling, multi-line
column headings, and lots more
6. It reads and writes not only all data files created by
SR-Info, VP-Info, dBASE, Clipper and FoxBase, but it reads
and writes any DOS file or device, including all ports.
7. Best of all, it performs typical programs far faster than
its high-cost competitors.
In fact, SR-Info is so powerful it should be called a general-
purpose language in the same way as BASIC, C, PASCAL, COBOL and
FORTRAN. It's just better than any of them for most users because so
many features are built-in, so that professional developments that
take man-months or man-years using any of the above can be up and
running in days or weeks with SR-Info.
And, finally, SR-Info is completely upward compatible to VP-Info
Professional and VP-Info Professional Network Edition. Every SR-Info
program runs without change in either of these professional
development languages.
The library release consists of two 360K disks, containing the
complete program and its supporting files, comprehensive on-line help
facility, 450-page command and function reference manual, installation
procedures, a fast-start file with examples, numerous sample programs,
and a completely documented application using several related data
files.
SR-Info complete with tech support, disks and 544-page manual. $90.00
Tech support and disk set alone (450-page manual on disk). . . $50.00
