------------------------ SUMMARY ----------------------------------
BookBank II is a PLMS - Personal Library Management System. With
configurable reports and detailed information tracking, it is a
powerful yet easy way to track a personal, professional, or
company library.
------------------ TO INSTALL AND RUN -----------------------------
To install BookBank II, simply copy all the files to the
appropriate location and then just type BB2. All necessary file
configuration will be done automatically.

COPY A:*.* <Enter> Copy all the files from the A: drive. This
assumes that the BookBank II files are on a

and the read/write nature of a database, BookBank II cannot
