PROGRAM STUFFS:
===========================================================================
System Requirements: IBM or Compatible
DOS system
Hard Drive preferable
Main Menu: Use the arrow keys to move up selection bar up and down to indicate
your selection. To exit the program, press Escape. To select an
option, press Enter.
MAIN MENU OPTIONS:
Load Phonebook: This option loads a saved phonebook file. It lists a
maximum of 18 books, all of which must be in the current
directory. Pressing the <ENTER> key on a selection loads it.
'L' - Pressing 'L' when in the Load Phonebook box allows you to
load manually. You are prompted for the name of the file.
This allows you to load from other directories or an excess
of 18 phonebooks. *****Do not add an extension to the end
of the filename.
Save Phonebook: Saves the phonebook in memory to a data file. Be sure to
do this after editing or else your changes are lost after leaving
the program. The filename can be up to 8 letters. Do not add an
extension to the end of the filename.
View Phonebook: Views the phonebook currently in memory, one entry at a
time. It starts at entry 1. Pressing <ENTER> proceeds to the
next entry in memory. Pressing BackSpace will move to the previous
entry. Pressing Escape exits.
'E' - Edit: Allows you to edit your entries. Editing a blank
entry is in effect adding an entry to your list. Press the
number identifying which entry you wish to modify, and
modify it.
'D' - Dial: If your modem type is supported(1), and Dial-It is
properly configured (see Below--F3 Configure), Dial-It will
dial the number for you.
Create Phonebook: Pretty straight forward, actually. You can create a
maximum of one hundred entries in each phonebook file. Thus,
excluding manual loading, Dial-It supports about 1800 phone
numbers total, that can be loaded without the 'L' option.
Options:
Search: Allows you to search the phonebook in memory for a
string of text. It need not be any recognizable word, i.e.
782, Dave, u are all examples. Case does not matter. The
Search routine then proceeds through all the entries--starting
at entry 1--until it finds a match. It then displays that
entry, with the categories that contain the string highlighted.
After the first one, pressing <ESCAPE> exits, while pressing
<ENTER> continues the search where it left off. If Search
ever checks and finds no match, it will automatically return
to the Edit menu/
Alphabetize: This orders all entries in memory, either
progressively (forward) or degressively (backward) in
alphabetical order. It's recommended you save it afterwards,
else you may forget and *poof*, it's gone when you exit.
Print List: Print a list of the phone numbers.
