Vendor Encouragements And Restrictions
This document contains PRO DEV Software's message to Disk Copying and
Bulletin Board Services. This release adds Attendance Tracking and
greatly enhances the F1 Help screens.
First of all, thank you for carrying my Shareware software in your Disk
Copying Service catalog or on your Bulletin Board Service. You are a
vital link in the Shareware distribution process.
You MAY . . .
1. This on-disk letter authorizes you to include the enclosed
ProDev*MEMBER Version 1.09 disk of Shareware software in your
Shareware Cataloging and Disk Copying Service. This is a
non-exclusive authorization.
2. You may sell disks containing copies of this software as long as you
do NOT imply to your customers that this is "free" software. It is
best if your catalogs make it clear that this is Shareware software
that the end user must register with PRO DEV Software to continue
using beyond the evaluation stage. If you list the registration fees
in your catalog, DO NOT use words like "Donation", "Contribution", or
other such words. It is a REGISTRATION FEE or COST of $30.
3. If you are a Disk Copying or Bulletin Board Service and you obtained
this software from other than PRO DEV Software, you may not have the
latest version. You are encouraged to write or call PRO DEV Software
and ask for the latest version.
PRO DEV Software 545 Grover Road Muskegon, MI 49442
616-788-2243 (8:00-5:00 M-F Eastern Time) CompuServe PPN: 72617,1266
4. You may add your own files to this disk as long as none of them give
any impression that this Shareware software is "free".
You may not . . .
1. DO NOT remove any of the following files from the disk (or compressed
file if you are a BBS):
MEMBPROG.EXE MEMBDATA.EXE MEMBDOC.EXE PRINTERS.EXE INSTALL.EXE
LIST.COM VENDOR.DOC REGISTER.DOC README.DOC
LIST.COM is included on this disk with written permission from Vernon
Buerg and may NOT be removed or replaced with a different version.
2. If you are a Disk Copying Service, please do not further compress the
above files, particularly so as to add other (possibly competing)
software to the same disk. Naturally, a BBS operator will compress
the entire system as required.

3. You may NOT replace the MEMBDOC.EXE SCRNCHed documentation file with
the ASCII MEMBER.DOC file or another form of archiving, packing or
ziping. If you are a BBS, archive/pack/zip the MEMBDOC.EXE file along
with the other files WITHOUT first unSCRNCHing the MEMBDOC.EXE file.
This is because my INSTALL program expects the SCRNCHed file. The
same applies to the LHARCed MEMBPROG.EXE and MEMBDAT.EXE files.
4. If you are a Disk Copying or Bulletin Board Service that feels that
you JUST must add your own message to the end of my Copyrighted
documentation contained in the MEMBDOC.EXE file, send the text of your
message on a disk to PRO DEV Software and I will add it and reSCRNCH
the MEMBDOC.EXE file for you. You can also CIS Mail the text to
CompuServe PPN: 72617,1266. Please realize that you are placing a
burden on me to do this as the SCRNCH process takes my computer about
an hour to perform and you can add your messages in separate files a
lot easier.
I also encourage you to give this full featured system the write-up it
deserves in your catalog. The next page gives my "unbiased" {grin}
suggested catalog descriptions. I really get discouraged when I see
catalogs that just say "ProDev*MEMBER Church Membership system". It is
really a powerful, low registration fee system that powerful enough for
ANY sized church.
Now that I have gotten all of that legal stuff out of the way, let me tell
you what is in ProDev*MEMBER.
This system allows a church to track any number of members, non-members,
former members, shut-ins, visitors and affiliated missionaries. By using
a relationally linked child data base, information can be kept on zero to
ANY number of children per member. Complete Member/Child talent, duties,
teaching expertise and ANY other information can be stored as free-form
text allowing complete customization of this information. The program can
intelligently search and report on ANY desired information.
The church secretary can print single or all records as dozens of
different label runs with a variety of filters. Rotary Card File cards
can be printed on all or selected records.
Eleven different report selections with a variety of filters will meet the
demands of the entire church staff. Two of the report selections produce
3 different church directories. All label runs and reports can optionally
be printed to the printer, screen or to a disk file. The disk files can
be printed directly to the word processing sub-directory for easy import
into word processor documents or merge files.
The Givings or Offerings can rapidly be posted to a transaction file.
Even open plate and special funds! When the program totals match the
total funds collected, the transaction file is posted to a permanent
Giving data file. All or individual Quarterly, Annual (or any date range)
Statements can be printed such that they can fit any sized windowed
envelope. Version 1.09 raises categories of giving from 3 to 6.
