- :WELCOME1
- Welcome to Daily Calendar!
- This program should help you simplify your life by tracking
- appointments, names and address and item to do.
- Installation and configuration are simple and the program checks
- your computer environment to see that all settings are correct.
-
- I hope you enjoy the program, and if you have questions or problems,
- please call the Daily Calendar Bulletin Board at (619)-435-0036, or
- for voice message/fax support call (619)-435-2687.
- :END
- :WELCOME2
- PLEASE READ CAREFULLY THE FOLLOWING SCREENS about configuration.
- When configuring options for the program, use F1 to obtain help
- and tips about set-up options.
-
- Daily Calendar starts in black and white to be sure you can read the
- configuration selections. To change colors select OTHER - SET COLORS
- from the main menu screen.
- :END
- :CONFIG1
- Daily Calendar requires DOS 3.3 and up or Windows/Windows 95 and
- about 400K of free memory. You must have a line in your CONFIG.SYS
- file that set files to an odd number of 41 or more. The line should
- say FILES=41 (or more). Do NOT include the Daily Calendar directory
- in your path.
- :END
- :CONFIG2
- If you are using Windows or Windows 95, you may wish to set the program
- to use the full screen and to close the window on exit. No other special
- settings are needed and Daily Calendar runs fine under Windows as a DOS
- task. For convenience, you may wish to create a shortcut to Daily Calendar
- on your desktop.
- :END
- :PLSREG
- If you are not a registered user, please consider registering Daily
- Calendar. Daily Calendar is shareware distributed through software
- services, retail stores and electronic bulletin boards as a "try before
- you buy" program. If you obtained the program from any of these sources,
- you are not registered and have only paid the service's distribution
- charge. For registration information, please see the documentation.
- Thank you for trying Daily Calendar.
- - Elizabeth Copper
- :END
- :NEWVER
- It has been detected that you are upgrading from an earlier version
- of Daily Calendar. All of your configuration options will be retained
- EXCEPT your printer choice. PLEASE BE SURE TO RESELECT YOU PRINTER!
- Note that advanced support is available for HP Laserjet printers. Other
- new features are described in the READ1ST.DOC file on the distribution
- disk. Support is available by Bulletin Board, (619)-435-0036 and by
- voice message, (619)-435-2687.
- Thank you for upgrading!
- :END
- :SELPRN
- If you have a laser printer than emulates the HP LaserJet II/III/IV,
- choose the HP LaserJet *II/III or HP LaserJet *IV selection for
- advanced control of your printer. If you have a printer than defaults
- or can be set to an Epson FX/MX/LQ mode, choose the Epson E/F/J/RX/LQ
- selection. For other printers, choose the closest selection.
- :END
- :HPLASER
- You will have advanced control of HP LaserJet (and many DeskJets)
- available whenever you print by pressing Alt L. This will
- bring up a menu to allow you to reset lines per inch,
- characters per inch, portrait or landscape, manual feed and
- tray selection. The default printing modes will stay in effect
- unless you press Alt L to change printing modes.
- (NOTE: Not all pop-up features work with all models of the DeskJet
- printer. Some depend on additional memory/font cartridges.)
- :END
- :CAL1224
- The appointment calendar can be set for an hourly 24-hour calendar
- or an half-hourly 12-hour calendar for any 12 hour period in the day.
- This is a one-time choice during initial installation and cannot be
- changed later except by resetting the start time in the database
- utilities menu.
- :END
- :CALSTART
- This choice allows you to reset the calendar start time but does NOT delete
- any databases. You can use this option to change from 12 to 24 hour
- calendars or to change the start time of 12 hour calendars. All existing
- calendar data will be preserved, but in the same relative time slot, NOT
- the correct time. As an example, if you had a start time of 7:00 AM and
- changed to 6:00 AM, data originally in the 8:00 AM slot (third relative
- position) would still be in the third relative position, but this will now
- be 7:00 AM. This choice intended to allow new users to change their start
- time before they have entered much data.
- :END
- :PORTCHECK
- These tests check to see if the program recognizes your printer and
- modem as they are connected to their respective ports. Please see the
- documentation for a more detailed discussion of ports. Before testing,
- be sure the device is connected and turned on. Test results are
- meaningless if nothing is attached to the port or the device is not
- turned on. Parallel ports (LPT1-3) are fairly straightforward, but
- serial ports (COM1-4) are not. If you cannot make your printer or
- modem work, call for support and we will help.
- :END
- :NON-US PHONE
- You have selected non-US phone use. This choice has the following
- consequences:
- ■ All phone numbers must be entered as they need to be dialed, with or
- without area codes or country codes.
- ■ Your long distance prefix will be changed to a blank.
- ■ If you have already entered numbers in US format, they will still be in
- that format, but now all area codes entered will be dialed.
- While you can change from US to non-US formats, this option is intended
- as a one-time choice at installation to avoid confusion in dialing.
- :END
- :NOBAK
- There is not enough free memory to copy all the databases to the BAK
- subdirectory. You will need to copy them from DOS. To see why you do not
- have enough free memory, check to see how much memory is used by resident
- programs, disk caches, device drivers and menu or shell programs.
- :END
- :BACKUP DATA
- The backup databases created are: DAYBAK.DBF/DAYBAK.DBT,
- REDBAK.DBF/REDBAK.DBT and TODOBAK.DBF/TODOBAK.DBT. If you ever have a
- database corruption error in any of these databases, go to DOS, delete
- the corrupted files (DAY.DBF/DAY.DBT, or REDBOOK.DBF/REDBOOK.DBT or
- TODO.DBF/TODO.DBT) and run Daily Calendar. You will be asked if you want
- to restore from the backup. This will restore your data as it existed on
- the date of your last backup. In addition, ALL your databases have been
- backed up to the subdirectory BAK in your Daily Calendar directory.
