Fast Memo 0.8
Fast Memo is a free form database for Windows 3. Information can be
entered in any form. To retrieve data one enters any "string" and all
data containing that string will be retrieved with the string hilighted.
One simply goes through each retrieved page to view or edit the
information desired. Data can be copied, cut or pasted in usual Windows
fashion.
I hope operation is intuitive but a word on some options:
If "confirm changes" is checked (the default) you will be asked if you want to
keep any changes made on a page. If not any changes will be kept
automatically. If "auto filesave" is checked (the default), if any
pages have been changed, the data file will be re-saved at exit. If not
checked you will be given the option of saving the changed file. The
data file can be saved any time via the File-Save menu or with Ctrl-S.
"Tab" will move you back and forth between the "string" box and the
"page".
The "First" button brings you to the first page, the "Last" button to
the last.
The "Up" button brings you one page closer to the first, and the "Down"
closer to the last.
The "New" button (or the escape key) will bring you out of the search
mode (if you're in it) and present a blank page to add a data item to.
Data may be edited, or pages deleted from either the "search mode"
(selected pages) or the "all mode" (all pages).
Fast Memo is written in Visual Basic therefore VBRUN100.DLL will need to
be in your Windows directory. This file is available on most BBS's.
This version of Fast Memo is a prototype. Data is limited to
32,767 bytes. I would like to add many more features, e.g. multiple
string searches, auto-dialer, save configuration options, a help system etc.
I also plan to write the final version (if there is one) in 'C'.
Fast Memo is as bug free as I can make it but it has not been
extensively beta-tested. Please do not use it for important data.
I take no responsibility for any damage this program may cause.
If you would like to encourage me to continue the development of this
hopefully someday Shareware program, please write me with words of
encouragement, criticism, bug reports, or suggestions.
