Next you will see a dialog box (pictured below) entitled Global Settings. You can now enter the data that you want In His Time to use when you start it up from the Window's Program Manager.

Global Settings Dialog Box

The dialog box is divided into three areas.

User Information

Type your name, address, and other information in the User Information fields. Use the TAB key or mouse to move to each new field.

AutoSave Options

You can enable or disable AutoSave. Enabling will automatically cause In His Time to save all information to your disk like new addresses, prayer requests, Bible topics, etc., which you have entered. To enable, click the box beside Enable AutoSave. A Check Mark will appear. Without a Check Mark, AutoSave is disabled and data is saved only when you use ToolBox Save Infosets function or exit In His Time. Use the TAB key or mouse to move to the field and the SpaceBar to enable or disable each field.

The second choice is Feedback. Enabling Feedback will tell In His Time to notify you on screen each time it is saving your information to the disk. Disabling allows In His Time to save your information in background mode. The last item is Interval. This is the time that will elapse before In His Time saves your data. You can choose between one and ninety-nine (1-99) minutes. The default is ten minutes. Type a different number if you desire a different time. Press TAB to go to the next field.

Miscellaneous Settings

The choices you make in this box will be the defaults which In His Time uses each time you enter.

Life Application

Life Applications are the daily commentaries that apply to your daily Scripture verse. Walk With Wisdom is the daily Life Application section included as a standard feature of In His Time. Along with these inspirational daily devotions, you can purchase other Life Application add-ons. (See page 49 for complete ordering information.) Select the DownArrow button to select your default Life Application.

Default Page

There are four choices from which you can select. The selection you choose will instruct In His Time what to display each time you start on the right page of your CIRO. The four choices are:

♦	Things To Do List

♦	Appointment Calendar

♦	Daily Prayer Journal

♦	Events To Remember

The default selection is the Things To Do List.

Journal Program

You can keep a daily journal of your thoughts, notes, or anything you wish to write about. This field tells In His Time where you want your journal to be located. You can choose the Notepad from Windows by typing the path and NOTEPAD.EXE. (Illustration: c:\windows\notepad.exe). If you want to use a word processor for your journal, you only need to type the path and the EXE file name. (Illustration: c:\winword\winword.exe).

Calculator Program

Type the path and the EXE file name for the Windows Calculator, or any other calculator program you may have. (Illustration: c:\windows\calc.exe).

Upcoming Event Range

In the following selections, a check mark appears when switches are activated.

Keep History

When activated, In His Time keeps a history of your appointments and a Things To Do list. You also have the option to keep a history of these events by telling In His Time to keep a historical record when you are recording the event.

Promote To Do Items

Items not completed on the Daily Things To Do list will be raised in level of priority on the next day's list when this switch is activated. (Illustration: A Level 4 - low is raised to a Level 3 -- medium.)

When you have completed your setup, select OK,  or press ENTER. You will return to the ToolBox dialog box.

Blending His Time And Your Time

It's Monday morning. Your weekend has not been as restful as you would have wished. You feel a slight panic about what the week ahead holds. Out of the corner of your eye you spot your computer and remember that you recently purchased In His Time. You sit down with your morning cup of coffee and press the on switch. Within seconds and in living color, In His Time appears on your screen. The first area you see is the current appointments for the day. Wow, you think, I almost forgot the appointment with Don Collins about his evaluation. There is something you know that is important today, but you just can't quite remember, or can you? Sure, all you have to do is point at the Things To Do button and click your mouse. Your heart starts a slightly elevated beat. You could have forgotten. It's your spouse's birthday, with a note to tell you what you thought you would buy for a gift. What a lifesaver! In the next ten minutes you brush-up on your day's activities and set the appropriate alarms fifteen minutes early so you can be on-time to those important appointments. With one more point and click, a cartoon pops to your screen. You find yourself chuckling because the whole thing is so true to life. The Bible Reading tab on the right side of your In His Time reminds you that you need to take time for your usual Bible Reading program. As you select the Tab you see that you are just a few chapters behind your goal. (A friendly non threatening, non guilt producing reminder.) The Holy Spirit reminds you of your faithfulness and gives you peace. After reading, you select your Appointment button and gaze at the day's activities. Pausing for a moment, you begin to pray that you would represent God in a visual Christ like way in each encounter you have that day. Still praying, you select your Daily Prayer Journal and pray for each request you have entered. Clicking on the Prayer Diary, you are reminded of the faithfulness of God in answering your prayers. His strength and confidence begin to fill you for the day's work. You take a deep breath and resolve, finally, I can organize my time and have fun doing it. Tucking an In His Time print out (showing all your day's activities) into your coat pocket, you move toward the door with a feeling that you are somehow in control of the time God has given you to be a faithful steward of this day. What a relief, you think. God really has made this day, and I can be happy in it.

The more you use In His Time, the more benefits you will discover.


Starting In His Time

The most common way to enter In His Time is to double-click on its icon in Windows Program Manager. In Windows 3.1 you can also move In His Time to the Startup Window and Windows will automatically start In His Time for you.

In His Time buttons have replaced the traditional pull down menus in Windows. Yet, they function the same way. Remember, in a Windows Application, when you pull down a menu from the MenuBar, only those items that are bright are executable. The dimmed words are not. In In His Time when a button is dimmed, it is not usable at that moment. When the button is bright, it is usable.

As an illustration, if you do not have any items in your Things To Do List, the Add Things To Do button will be active or bright, the others will be dimmed or non active. This applies to each function of In His Time.

On the top of the right-hand page there is a display tab. This tab is an indicator of functions that are currently active in In His Time for the date selected. A CheckMark indicates that you have Things To Do items for the selected day. A HourGlass means you have appointments scheduled. The String Finger denotes that there is an Event To Remember. The Fish reminds you that you have items in your Prayer Journal. A Cross indicates you have Bible reading for the selected day. Use this tab as a daily reminder of what lies ahead and what you need to get done.

Walk With Wisdom (Life Application)

The daily Life Application is based on the daily Scripture. To gain the fullest from Scripture, one must apply its teachings to life.

Address Import Utility

To make the conversion from your current organizer or address database easier, we've provided an Address Import Utility program that will read data exported in ASCII, comma-delimited, format and place it in your In His Time database.

A comma-delimited ASCII file is made up of your data separated by commas delineating the various data fields in your database file. While the basic format of the data is universal, the creation process for such files is far from it. You should consult your current database program's documentation for information about exporting data to see how that program does it. Some programs make it easy, some make it not so easy.

However the export file is created, the final format should be as follows:

Field	Description	Max Size

1.	Last Name	20

2.	First Name	15

3.	Spouse	15

4.	Address Line1	35

5.	Address Line 2	35

6.	City	15

7.	State	2

8.	Zip Code	9

9.	Phone #1	12

10.	Extension #1	4

11.	Description #1	10

12.	Phone #2	12

13.	Extension #2	4

14.	Description #2	10

15.	Phone #3	12

16.	Extension #3	4

17.	Description #3	10

18.	Phone #4	12

19.	Extension #4	4

20.	Description #4	10

21.	Title	25

22.	Organization Name	25

23.	Organization Address Line 1	25

24.	Organization Address Line 2	25

25.	Organization City	15

26.	Organization State	2

27.	Organization Zip Code	9

28.	Notes	900

A partial sample of an export file would look like this:

"Smith","John","Jane","123 Some Street","","Redmond","WA", etc...

Each data item (or field) is separated by a comma, and the data is enclosed by double quotes. Note that in the export file, there should be something for each of the above fields. If there is no corresponding entry in your old database for an In His Time data item (as in the sample, there is no address line 2), then there should be two double quotes between the commas to act as a placeholder for the missing data. This is very important. If these placeholders are not present, you address information will shift up by one field for each missing placeholder, with the result being an address database trashed beyond recognition. So, if you run an export, then load the data into In His Time only to find your address where your spouse's name should be, see if you're not missing a field in your export file. In this case the culprit would be the spouse name not being exported, causing the address line 1 data to shift up into the area reserved for the spouse, the address 2 line to shift to the address 1 line, and so on in a chain-reaction style. This process snow-balls through all subsequent records as fields shift and shift. It's not a pretty sight, so watch this very closely.

The import utility program resides in the In His Time Program Manager group created by the installation procedure. Press the launch button and the follow window will appear.

Question #1

Is there a way to have my InfoSet start automatically?

Yes! You can make your InfoSet the default by changing the Command Line within the File Properties dialog box. Follow this step-by-step procedure:

1.	If In His Time is currently running, exit the program.

2.	Find the icon you use to start up In His Time and click ONCE to highlight the title below the icon.

3.	Select File from the Program Manager Menu Bar.

4.	Select Properties.

5.	At the end of the Command Line, add a space and then the initials that you used when you first created your InfoSet. Illustration: c:\iht\iht.exe wrt

6.	Press OK.

7.	Start up In His Time. Your name should appear in the Title Bar after the Title, In His Time.

Illustration: In His Time - W. Ron Tuttle


Question #2

When I use my dot matrix printer my printouts don't look right. Am I doing something wrong?

Your printer must be set to print at 360 x 360 print resolution in order for the printouts to work properly. There are several steps to follow:

Check your current print resolution.

From Program Manager select the Control Panel icon. Next, select the Printers icon inside the Control Panel dialog box. Choose Setup. If your current print resolution says 360 x 360, try printing again. If it still doesn't look right, please call us and we'll help you on an individual basis. Our Product Support line can be reached at (206) 679-4496 from 8.00 AM to 5:00 P.M. Pacific Time, Monday through Friday. If your current print resolution says something other than 360 x 360, click on the DownArrow button at the end of that line to see your other choices. If 360 x 360 is one of the choices, select that setting and press OK. This will be your new default setting and will not affect printing in other programs. If 360 x 360 is NOT one of the choices, there are three possible solutions:

If your printer is a 24-pin:

1.	Check with your printer manufacturer to see if they have a print driver available that will allow your printer to work at 360 x 360 resolution.

2.	Check your printer manual to see if your printer can emulate any other printers. Using the Control Panel Printers section again, add one of those printers to your list of available printers. Select that printer as your default, then check the available resolution settings. Find one that has a 360 x 360 setting and use that as your default printer. Be sure to follow the instructions in your printer manual to set up the emulation properly.

If your printer is a 9-pin:

3.	It is our understanding from talking to a number of printer manufacturers that a 9-pin printer is not capable of printing at 360 x 360 resolution. Because of the specifications of the printing required by In His Time, it means that you will need to use a different printer if you want to print from In His Time.


Question #3

I just entered a Master To Do item, but I don't see it on my To Do list when I look ahead to a future date. Where did it go?

The Master To Do items are different than Master Appointments, which show up immediately after you enter them. Here's how it works. When you enter a Master To Do item, the parameters that you set go into memory. At the beginning of each day, In His Time builds a To Do list, first bringing forward the items from yesterday's list that were not completed, then checking the Master To Do file for any items that would apply to that particular day or date. If you are curious as to whether this really is working, set a Test item and include tomorrow as one of the days for the Master To Do. When you start your computer tomorrow, the item will appear on your list.


Question #4

I have one of the Bible software programs that is supposed to link with In His Time. How can I use the programs together?

The first thing you need to do is make sure that the directory that contains your Bible software is in your Path statement in your autoexec.bat file. From the Program Manager select the File Manager icon.

1.	Find the Windows directory and the System sub-directory.

2.	Find a file called sysedit.exe. Double click on that file to start it. This will bring up a series of files including one called autoexec.bat.

3.	Find the line that starts with the word PATH. Go to the end of that line and add a semi-colon (no spaces), then the directory name where your Bible software is located.

Illustration: ;c:\logos

4.	Save the file, then exit.

5.	You will need exit Windows and reboot your computer for the change to take effect.

Once you are back in Windows, start In His Time. Take the following steps:

1.	Select Toolbox.

2.	Select Global Settings.

3.	Press the DownArrow button by Bible Reading DDE and select your Bible Reading program from the list. (The DDE will only work with Logos and QuickVerse for Windows.)

4.	Press OK

To choose a Bible chapter take the following steps:

1.	Choose the Bible Reading Tab.

2.	Select a chapter.

3.	Press the Eyes button at the bottom of the page. This will open your Bible software program and take you directly to the chapter you selected.

The Bible Topics section works in a similar way.

1.	Select a letter, then select one of the topics from the list.

2.	Press the Scripture Topic Edit button to see the Topics Close-Up window.

3.	Select one of the verses from the list.

4.	Press the Read button and the DDE link will open your Bible software program and take you directly to that verse.

When you are completely finished reading, just exit the Bible software program as you usually would.


Question #5

What kind of monitor should I have?

What's New In Version 1.5

In His Time version 1.5 is a maintenance release which resolves all known bugs of version 1.0 including the Bible Reading Plan last day crash and burn, plus the Events To Remember plight. If either of these have not happened to you, feel blessed. In addition we have checked under the hood of 1.0 and made some improvements. This release has several printing enhancements and when you switch InfoSets your To Do list will roll over. The Appointment Book page will now position the correct time of day according to your computer clock. The biggest improvement to In His Time is that we have reduced the Resource consumption. This will allow you to run more Windows programs at one time without your computer complaining. In addition there are several added features to In His Time version 1.5. They are:

Question #8

When I get a Memory Application Error, what should I do?

From the Windows Program Manager, choose Help from the Menu bar and then select About Program Manager. At the bottom of the pop-up window check to see that you have at least 1,200 KB free. Microsoft recommends that you not operate Windows below 50% resources.

Generally Runtime error 213 relates to low Windows resources. In His Time takes about 12% resources to run. For Windows to operate normally resources should not drop below 50%.

When you open a application under Windows, the application takes a certain amount of resources to operate correctly. When you close the application it does not give back all the resources it took to run. Opening and closing applications repeatedly will drain resources. If you need more resources do one of the following:

♦	Close some of the applications you have open.

♦	Closing and restarting Windows will restore full resources which is approximately 80-85%.


MultiLife Application Palette

You may now choose any of the Life Application add-on devotionals from the main In His Time window. From within In His Time. Take the following steps:

1.	Select Toolbox.

2.	Select Global Settings.

3.	Press the DownArrow button by the drop-down box under Life Application and select Multi-Life Application Palette

4.	Press OK

5.	Press OK

The first button on the ButtonBar will look like the one that appears below.

When you press this button in the main window of In His Time, the following palette appears.
