SOMEPLACE!
Personal database

Someplace is a personal database program for Windows 95. It gives
you a place to keep all the little (and sometimes not so little)
odds and ends that don't fit neatly into a file cabinet or a
traditional database program. You can store in a single file all
those important details that you need quick access to: phone
numbers, web sites, access codes and passwords, health tips,
financial reminders, etc. You can also file less important
paraphernalia: movie reviews, recreation ideas, clothing sizes of
your relatives and so on. Someplace can reflect your personal
organization style: hierarchical categories or one big mess. You
can find what you need quickly regardless of your tidiness.
Someplace will recognize and dial phone numbers, and will connect
to your favorite web sites if you have a web browser installed.
You can also use Someplace to launch programs to edit other files.
INSTALLATION
There are only a couple of files required to install Someplace, so
in the interest of keeping file clutter to a minimum, no auto-
install program is included. You will need the following files on
your drive:
PLACE.EXE
PLACE.HLP
Someplace will create a new data file DEFAULT.PLC if no data file
is found, but if you want to take the "quick tour" in the next
section you'll also want to copy the file PRACTICE.PLC.
So to install Someplace, here's the recommended procedure:
Create a new subdirectory -- for the purposes of this document,
we'll assume the directory is C:\PLACE.
Copy PLACE.EXE, PLACE.HLP, and PRACTICE.PLC (for the quick tour)
to the new directory. (If you've downloaded the "zipped" version
of Someplace, just unzip the file in your new directory.)
Finally, you'll probably want to make a "shortcut" to place.exe on
your desktop or in an appropriate folder. Point the mouse to
where you'd like to add a shortcut, then press the right mouse
button and select "new", "shortcut". Enter C:\PLACE\PLACE.EXE for
the program and Someplace for the description, and you're set.
REGISTRATION
The registration cost for Someplace is $15 (MC/VISA or check drawn
on US bank). This licenses you to use the current version and one
major upgrade (and probably several minor upgrades), and gives you
telephone support for the licensed versions. You can download the
latest version of Someplace (and it does change often) from our
web page
http://cs.cs.appstate.edu/u/cs/mh/granny
or for an extra $3 we'll send you a disk with the current version.
Regardless of how you obtain the program, when you register we'll
send or email you a code which will make your version
"registered".
If you don't have Internet access and want to try out the latest
shareware version of Someplace, send us a check for $3.

permitted only if the package stays intact; all files should be
