REVISION C.21
Dear Users of EZ-Forms: 1 June 1986
New capabilities in EZ-Forms rev C:
- Auto numbering in master forms with the CtrlN key sequence.
See the doc for how to set up auto numbering fields.
- Use of Alt F1-F6 to allow character drawing in the edit mode.
- Expanded printer installation menu in EZ-INSTAL. EZ-FORMS can
now be configured to almost any printer, not just those on the
menu!
- Several additional forms have been included. See the doc for
a listing.
- We now offer a custom forms design service. If you want us to
convert your forms to a EZ-FORMS format, then complete a copy
of FORMORD.FRM for each form you want converted.
New capabilities in EZ-Forms rev C*:
- Use of Alt F1-F10 and Ctrl F1 to provide COMPLETELY solid
forms. This includes all intersections and connections. The
printer portion EZINSTAL has been expanded to give you access
to these additional characters when printing.
- The maximum number of copies you can print at one time has been
increased. This was requested by a registered user. I will
try to include any additional capability that you request!
- Better on line help.
- Additional error checking on borders when drawing in the editor.
- This version corrects two minor bugs. First, there was a
conflict between using auto numbering and protected fields.
Second, the rename option in the utilities section had trouble
when you tried to rename a form the same name as one that
already existed. Both of these bugs have been fixed.
New capabilities in EZ-Forms rev C.20:
- Easier to track rev numbering scheme. Simply count the number
of stars and add that after the major revision letter. If I
have a very minor bug fix or enhancement I will change the
last digit -- example: C.21 for next very minor update. For
the bulletin boards I will adopt the naming convention of
EZFRMC20.arc, EZFRMC21.arc, EZFRMD10.arc, etc.
- Two printer enhancement programs are now included on disk #2
when you register. One downloads the IBM Graphics Character
set into the FX-80 allowing fast character graphics under
EZ-Forms. The second program is a memory resident program
to translate IBM character graphics into graphics for the
Epson MX and FX series of printers. Both of these programs
give you much nicer versions of printed forms if you have one
of these printers.
- Insert in the edit mode now also changes the to cursor to a full
height block cursor, making it easier to tell what mode you are
in (insert or overwrite).
- When creating a new master form you can now retain the default
form name and not have to type it in again.
- All directories now give you the default drive at the top of
the screen.
- Speeded up operation of the editor thru improved use of arrays.
- Esc can now be used to exit from help menus with several pages.
- Easier to use block operations. You can now mark as small as a
single character in the editor. Blocks stay marked during copy
and move operations allowing easier duplication of areas.
- Error checking has been added for the overlay file. If EZ.000
doesn't exist in the default directory and drive then EZ-Forms
will ask you for the correct path to find it when first loaded.
EZ.000 must still remain but it can now be easily found if it
is on another drive or directory.
- More straight forward date and time feed into the editor.
EZ-Forms will now feed whatever portion that can be into your
form.
- Added more information when you are printing. EZ-Forms will
now give you the copy number it is printing.
- Expanded install options. EZINSTAL now allows you to disable
all beeps within EZ-Forms. Must use MISC option in EZINSTAL.
- Fixed a minor bug -- If you typed characters inside of a marked
block, you got the normal background color NOT the block color.
New capabilities in EZ-Forms rev C.21:
- Full support for the HP LaserJet printer.
- Full support for all Epson series printers. EpsGraph on disk
#2 provides the capability to draw solid lines, with several
options for print quality. EpsGraph is a memory resident
character graphics to Epson graphics translator. It can also
be used with your other software for emulating the IBM Graphics
printer.
Included in this package are two definition files, COLOR.CNF and
BW.CNF. If you have either a color monitor or a "green screen"
attached to a color card, then copy the appropriate file to
EZ-FORMS.CNF to get a head start on installing the colors.
EZ-Forms automatically looks for this file when you run it. If it
doesn't exist then EZ-INSTAL will automatically create it. NOTE:
If you have an old EZ-FORMS.CNF file, you will have to use
EZINSTAL to reinstall the printer type.
EZ-FORMS now has it's own section on the Yellow Rose bulletin
board (713-326-2999). An area has been set aside to carry the
latest version of EZ-FORMS and act as a focal point for users to
swap forms. I will keep the latest version of EZ-FORMS on this
board along with additional forms. Check out this board, it is
one of the best one in Houston.
The latest version of EZ-Forms is also available on the General
Electric Network for Information Exchange (GEnie) in area 3,
applications. I will continue to upload EZ-Forms to GEnie as
new versions become available. GEnie has file areas for the
different PCs and has been VERY good about posting updated versions
of EZ-Forms. GEnie can be accessed throughout the country at
local numbers ($5 per hour). The current number for GEnie
information is 1-800-638-9636, ext. 21.
If you find any bugs in EZ-Forms please take the time to fill
out the bug report form and mail it to me. I will try to
fix any bugs as quickly as possible. The first 5 users who
report each bug will receive the fixed version of EZ-Forms as
soon as I can correct the bug. If you are a registered user, I
will mail out both diskettes of the two disk set. Otherwise,
you will receive only diskette number one (the shareware version).
Please help distribute EZ-Forms. Pass copies to friends and
upload it to your local bulletin boards. Any suggestions for
improving EZ-Forms would be very much appreciated.
