Congratulations for purchasing the latest version of
OS/2 Warp with BonusPak! The OS/2 BonusPak includes a set
of extremely convenient personal productivity tools in its
Works suite. To fully utilize your old data in
the new Works suite, you must first convert your existing
data into a Works-compatible form. Afterwards, you need to
periodically maintain your Works databases.
Arcadia Technologies provides a ready and easy solution to
these problems with the ARCADIA POWERPAK.
The PowerPak is an indispensable add-on tool for your
Works suite. It has two main functions: utilities
that create programs for maintaining databases, and a
versatile scheduler to execute your programs. Both of
these functions are integrated for an effortless
approach to scheduled file management. In addition, the
program scheduler and file utilities can interact with
outside programs and files.
In maximizing OS/2's powerful performance capabilities,
you may need to frequently run certain programs in order to
manage your daily work. PowerPak automates these
tasks, while providing the necessary facilities to
easily manage your databases. Both import and export
functions are provided; you may even mutually update
two different Works PhoneBook databases.
The PowerPak Scheduler allows you to customize the
frequency of your program launches. You may also specify
many different types of OS/2 executables. Program types
include Windows, DOS, OS/2, REXX and any other
OS/2-compatible programs. The Scheduler manages all
program launches while minimized on the corner
of your desktop; it monitors all of your scheduled events
while occupying minimal memory and desktop real-estate.
Even while minimized on your desktop, the Scheduler icon
displays the current time, day and date.
