Acknowledgements
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thanks got to the TAG team for providing the structure information
necessary for utility authors to create the utilities that *we* all
ask for. Thanks especially to Victor Capton and Paul Williams, not only
for remaining the driving forces behind this special BBS system, but also
for giving insight into TAG's inner workings making this and other
projects soooooooo much easier to handle.

Guarantees/Warranties/And Other Fantasies
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There is no warranty or guarantee offered with this program. The only
thing I will guarantee is it's ability to take up disk space.

regards and circumstance including but not limited to:

Purpose
~~~~~~~
TAGUDATE reads the information within EXITINFO.BBS and updates the
user information accordingly. The information read and updated:
User's S/L (if changed)
User's A/R Flags (If Changed... .. Respects Post/Call ratio flags)
User's Phone Numbers (If Changed)
User's Online time left (if changed)
NetMail Credits/Debits

When used with the EXITINFO.EXE program and a door that updates the
EXITINFO.BBS drop file TAGUDATE will keep your system and user
information current. It will also record any changes to the user's SL
level and/or AR flags.. This means if you toggle something while the
user is online the changes will be permenant when they return. It also
means you can use a validation door designed for a QBBS V2.76+ system.
Usage
~~~~
TAGUDATE follows the same calling conventions as EXITINFO.EXE sans the
%? parameters:
TAGUDATE (QBBSDir) (TAGDir)
QBBSDir := The QBBS Node Directory where ExitInfo.BBS
Was Written
TAGDir := Your Relevent TAG node Directory (where
status.dat resides for a given Node)
One note for Multi-Tasking Users: When TAGUDATE writes to the users.lst
file it will suspend all activity in other windows under DesqView,
Windows, and OS/2.. this only takes a split second and vastly reduces
the chances of a "crash" during a write/close operation on this very
important file. It's not likely your users will ever notice a thing.
If there is a problem
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I can be contacted via the TAGBETA, TAG, TAGDOORS echos or you can call
my BBS (Just For The Heck Of It II) at (219) 747-5971.. Or netmail me
