From the desk of Lonnie J. Rolland
on the date 05/22/92
Please find contained within the zip file a program called 'dBrow.exe'
It is a browse utility for dBase .dbf data files.
***********************************************************************
It is based largely upon one of the sample programs of:
Bill MacLeod (major domo at)
Max Software Consultants, Inc
Baltimore, MD. 21218
ph. 410/783-2668
They make software programmers toolboxes for Turbo Pascal.
I highly recommend getting a copy of their 'skipjack' package.
**********************************************************************
This program takes as a command line parameter a DBF data file.
It can optionally take as a second parameter a NDX index file.
The program allows you to see the data in spreadsheet (the default)
mode and a single record mode. You toggle between the two by
pressing the F6 key.
The program needs a minimum of 244 k bytes to run.
There is a built in help screen. Press the F1 key once you're running
the program. The search function (F3 key) is case sensitive. This
program has no data editing capability to it. It is a data viewer
only. I turned off all editing.
I am a tech support engineer and sysop at Symbol Technology in Costa
Mesa California. The BBS phone number is 714/549-6669. It answers at
1200 baud and up.
This program has no warantee, and stands as it is. I will assume no
responcibility for any loss of your data from usage of the program.
I am asking no money for the utility. If you are so inclined, please
give me a call and tell me whats right and/or wrong with the program.
My work phone number is 714/549-6612.
This is version 1.00
