This program was developed using Turbo Pascal and Quick Basic which are
products of Borland and Microsoft respectively. The program is copyrighted
by Third Wave Systems of Moline, IL 61266 and all rights are reserved.
General permission is granted to copy and distribute this program. After a
reasonable evaluation period, a registration fee of $5 is expected if use
continues. Upon registration you will receive the latest version of the
program and the most current version of the price file.
Included with the program is SEE.EXE, a FREEWARE program courtesy of
Pinnacle Software of Swanton, VT. It is invoked by the invoicing program
if you choose ERROR CODES or ADIOS USER MANUAL from the programs main menu.
You can also use it to view any ASCII file from a DOS prompt. For example,
to view the user manual from a DOS prompt type the following command
followed and then press Enter:
SEE ADIOS.DOC
CHANGES to the program which are not yet included in the user manual are
described at the end of this file.
Always start the program with the ADIOS.BAT file provided. We recommend
you run from the DOS prompt and not under a shell or under Windows. If you
must run under Windows, invoke ADIOSW.BAT from the RUN screen.
In order for the program to run properly, your computer must have a
CONFIG.SYS file in the root directory of the disk used to start your
computer. This file must contain the statement FILES=20. Any greater number
will also work.
If you have a hard disk, we recommend you make a special directory called
ADIOS and copy all files from the distribution diskette to this directory.
An example of the necessary DOS commands follows:
MD \ADIOS
COPY A:\*.* \ADIOS
... OR ...
A:INSTALL
If you are running the program from a floppy diskette, you may have to
remove one or more files from the diskette to provide sufficient disk
space. We suggest you remove ADIOS.DOC.
TO START THE PROGRAM TYPE ADIOS. If you have a hard disk you should first
change to the proper directory with a command such as: CD\ADIOS.
The following files should be present on the distribution diskette:
ADIOS.BAT Used to invoke the program
ADIOSW.BAT Used when running under Windows
ADIOS.DOC The manual which explains how to use the program.
Use a utility such as SEE to view/print it.
You could also use your word processor view or print the manual.
