- INSTALLING PUBLIC ADDRESS
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- 1) Copy all the file on this disk to a directory on your
- hard drive or you can run Public Address from this Floppy
- by simply typing PA and pressing your enter key. I have
- also included a small install program that will create a
- directory on your C drive named PA and copy all the file
- from this disk to the directory. No frills. If you are
- going to be distributing this program as a Vendor or BBS
- please make a copy of it BEFORE you run it from this disk.
- It will create a configuration file when started that may
- be non-compatible with other users systems.
-
- 2) You can print the documentation be typing: COPY *.DOC
- PRN at the DOS prompt or typing: PRINT *.DOC. Make sure
- you are in the same drive and directory that Public Address
- was installed to when you do this.
-
-
- RUNNING PUBLIC ADDRESS
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- 1) Type PA from the drive or directory Public Address was
- installed to. READ THE MANUAL!! Read ALL files with the
- extension DOC. See #2 from above!
-
- NEW FEATURES SINCE VERSION 3.03
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- I added the ability to pick which return address is the
- default from six. And I also made it so that you can have
- different configurations for your laser printer or dot-matrix
- printer. I again found a few more tricks to make it run a
- little faster. I also moved the label number selection from
- the print menu to the configuration menu. If your printer
- type is "L"aser you will be presented with the laser label
- selection screen otherwise you will get the "D"ot-matrix label
- selection screen. I have also added the ability for Public
- Address to assist employers with matching there employees
- for car pooling. I found a few places where I could stream-line
- the code. I was also able to make it easier at the same time.
- Every time you enter anything in the configuration it will
- automatically turn to upper case. I also have improved the error
- checking a little too. I added the ability to start printing from
- any position on a sheet of laser labels.
-
- The biggest difference is Public Address now supports tagging and
- copying records from one input file to another. You can also
- turn off or on auto sorting, and auto duplicate deletion.
-
- Remember, Shareware is kept alive by YOUR support. Register
