SPECIAL NOTE:
------------
If you were using another conversion program prior to running MAKE_SYS, you
may need to do some editing in the door data files. Some of the other
conversion programs do not convert the user name and password fields to upper
case as they are supposed to. MAKE_SYS does. To complicate things more, some
door programs take these entries at 'face value', meaning they use the EXACT
data in these fields (upper and lower case are considered 'different').
If you run into a problem using a door after installing MAKE_SYS, like for
instance it starts treating you and/or your callers as 'new users', you will
need to edit the user names in the data file to convert them to upper case.
If the door program has an editor (as many do), you can use this. If there is
no editor, or the editor does not allow you to change the user name, you will
need to use a disk zapper to edit the file direct on the disk. Norton
Utilities is an example of this kind of utility. A shareware program called
ZIPZAP is another. One of the door programs that considers upper and lower
case as 'different' is the all-popular Trade Wars (at least my copy does).
Sorry for any inconvenience this may be causing, but in most cases, it's all
for the better.
