[v1.4] If you were trying to turn off the ADOPT-A-DOOR option
thru the configuration file, it was not working. I was
forcing it on in unregistered versions. Fixed!
The Short display was showing the cost of an item, even if
the category was setup to not show the cost field. It was
picking up the cost from a prior record.
You now have a choice as to whether you want the dates in
the American (MMDDYY) or European (DDMMYY) format. This is
configurable in the CFG file.
Expanded the number of categories to 34.
Changed the message presented to a user that did not seem to
have ANSI loaded. The old message referred to CLASSIFY as a
game, the new message refers to it as a Door.
With this version of Classified Ads we are making available
the ability for you to setup a network of BBS' to share or
exchange Classified Ads databases. You will have to run a
conversion program and make a change to your CFG file to
choose whether you want to display the name of the BBS that
the Ad was originated on.
Note: To import/export the databases requires an optional
program, called CLEXCH and requires a separate
registration.
Added several options to the Configuration file related to
the Database Exchange feature. You must make the changes
regardless of whether you will be using the Exchange feature.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| You MUST run the conversion program, called CLCONVRT |
| regardless of whether you will be using the Exchange feature. |
| To execute the conversion program, enter the following after |
| changing to the directory containing the CLASSIFY database: |
| |
| CLCONVRT CLASSIFY.CFG |
| |
| If you use a different name for the CFG file, substitute that |
| name for CLASSIFY.CFG. |
| |
| THIS CONVERSION PROGRAM IS TO BE RUN ONLY ONCE! |
| |
| BACKUP CLASSIFY.DAT and CLASSIFY.INX first !!!!!!!!!!! |

------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
The DELETE option will now display all ads entered by the
caller (or ALL if Sysop is logged on) in the short format and
allow caller/Sysop to pick the one they want to DELETE. It will
then display the ad in deltail and ask if you wish to delete
it and then ask a second time to avoid problems.
The MODIFY option will now display all ads entered by the
caller (or ALL if Sysop is logged on) in the short format and
allow caller/Sysop to pick the one they wish to MODIFY. The ad
is then displayed from modification.
When MODIFYing the (L)ong Descriptions the program would not
accept a 2 digit line number. Therefore if you tried to Modify
Long Description line 10 it would place you on line 1.
|----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Expanded the Category file to include another field. This |
| will allow you to set a security level for each category. If |
| the caller's security level is less than this security level, |
| they will NOT be able to enter or view an ad in that category.|
| A category security level of 0 allows anyone to have access. |
|----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
If the program finds a file called WELCOME, it will display
that file after the opening screen and before the main menu
screens. WELCOME must reside in the same directory as
CLASSIFY.EXE
If the program finds a file called GOODBYE, it will display
that file when the caller exits the program. It will display
prior to displaying the file called ADOPT.SYS (if you have
created it). GOODBYE must reside in the same directory as
CLASSIFY.EXE
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Added 3 options to the Configuration file to give Sysop |
| control over which Logon Security Levels can access the |
| Add, Delete and Modify options. |
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Added another option to display the Categories from the
Main Menu.

[v1.3] There has been a number of requests (more like pleas <g>)
that I do something about the display and acceptance of the
date entered when the caller is in the Display option. I
do hope that this meets with everyones acceptance.

[v1.2] CLPURGE would not recognize a registered copy of CLASSIFY
if you were running GT Power and pointing to GTUSER.BBS on
the first line of the config. New CLPURGE.EXE enclosed.
05/31/92
[v1.1] In unregistered version, the program would not allow the
user to enter a cost amount and would show the Want Ad
category as deleting messages after 0 days.
Added a word-wrap routine to the program. It will be in
effect when a caller is entering the Long Description. It
will not be in effect when you are modifying a single line
in the Long Description nor for any other input area.
The text in the Long Description will no longer be converted
to upper case. It will remain as the User inputted it.
