-
- About this evaluation version:
-
- The supplied documentation in this evaluation copy is complete, and
- identical to the documentation found in the commercial package.
-
- The included programs in this evaluation package have limitations, and
- some of the utility programs are not included with this evaluation
- package. Therefore, some of the programs and techniques in this
- evaluation package described in the documentaion will not be possible.
-
- The actual DFD program itself:
-
- The documentation refers to DFD.EXE as the main program. In the
- evaluation version, the program is named DFDEVAL.EXE. Therefore,
- whenever the documentation refers to the DFD program, it should be taken
- as DFDEVAL. You can rename DFDEVAL.EXE to DFD.EXE if you feel more
- comfortable with it that way, and it will be more consistent with the
- documentation. However, if you pass on this evaluation package to a
- friend, please be sure to keep the original naming conventions the same
- (ie: keep the name DFDEVAL.EXE).
-
- Program Limitations:
-
- The DFDEVAL program has one feature which is deactivated, and a second
- feature which is semi deactivated: The deactivated feature is the ZAP
- (or "/z") feature as described in the documentation. The semi
- deactivated feature is the DUMP (or "/d") feature as described in the
- documentation - DUMP will only dump the first record of any database in
- the evaluation version.
-
- The DAD2SRCE program also has one feature which is deactivated in the
- evaluation version: it will not recognize the "/L" option, or language
- translation.
-
- Excluded Programs:
-
- The following utility programs have been excluded from the evaluation
- package and are only supplied with the commercial version:
-
- DADRPT.EXE - generates thorough report of contents of a Data Dictionary
- DADSORT.EXE - sorts a data dictionary in alphabetical & reference order
-
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
-

- period of 30 days. If after the trial period you find that this package
- will be useful to you, you may order the commercial package at our voice
- line with your credit card, or through our data number with your modem
- and credit card, or you may forward a check drawn on a U.S. bank to us
- at our mailing address. California residents must add 6.5% sales tax.

- bound documentation, or $19.95 with documentation supplied on diskette.
- Please state at time of order if you wish 5-1/4" or 3-1/2" disks. If
- you do not state diskette type, 5-1/4" will be assumed.
