- Short Description:
- ------------------
-
- A menu-driven program which implements a file archiving system that allows
- a user to keep track of computer files archived off of a hard disk system
- with the files stored on high capacity floppy disks. Program supplied
- automatically read the directory of floppy disks used to store archived
- files and store file identification data in an accessible database. This
- database can be searched to locate specified files so that an appropriate
- archival diskette can be identified and accessed.
-
- Long Description:
- -----------------
-
- ARCHIVE TRACKER consist of a computer files archiving system and the
- implementing software that keeps track of the archived computer files. The
- software portion of the system (ARCTRACK.EXE and associated files) will
- automatically store the information from the directory of an archival
- diskettes into a databse that can then be searched to locate specific
- archived files.
-
- Before any data can be aded to the system, an archive system must be
- set up that removes files from a hard drive and stores those files onto
- floppy diskettes. The directory of each Archival diskette is then read by
- the software provided and file identification data is stored in a database
- which can be queried, using menu, to locate specified files. Archival
- diskettes are purchased by the user from local sources to minimize cost.
- During the input process, ARCHIVE TRACKER automatically checks input to
- assure that duplicative data is eliminated, thereby allowing for multiple
- uses of the same Archive Diskette until that diskette is filled up.
-
- ARCHIVE TRACKER requires 300K RAM and a hard disk system. The number of
- files for whichinformation can be stored is limited only to the size of
- the available space on the User's hard drive.
