echo ╒╡Mail Call (MC) ═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
echo │ You should find several files here (in addition to ReadMe.Bat): ║
echo │ ║
echo │ MC.Exe Mail Call itself. To get started, just type MC. ║
echo │ MC.Doc Mail Call's manual ║
echo │ MCE.Com MC Express (RAM-resident version of Mail Call) \ registered ║
echo │ MCE.Doc Manual for MC Express / users only ║
echo │ *.Doc Several sample files to test MC's 'Personalized Document' ║
echo │ feature. Letter.Doc & Memo.Doc are great for quick notes ║
echo │ DialMe.Bas To experiment/find the right codes for your modem. ║
echo │ ║

echo │ We updated MC recently. For example, we added MC Express, a RAM-resident║
echo │ program to print envelopes on HP LaserJets. Use it while still in your word║
echo │ processor writing a letter. And MC Express also Saves-Names-To-A-File -- a ║
echo │ mail merge file you can later import right into Mail Call. ║
echo │ ║
echo │ And MC now has UNLIMITED capacity - with its multiple-file feature. See ║
echo │ MC.Doc for details. (Registered users: at the DOS prompt, enter 'MC Demo')║
echo │ ║
echo │ And now for the big news . . . ║

echo ╒╡Form Design and Form Master ════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
echo │ On top of the improvements to Mail Call, we just wrote two new programs: ║
echo │ FORM DESIGN (PFD) and FORM MASTER (PFM). ║
echo │ ║
echo │ * Design professional quality forms with Form Design--it's fast and easy. ║
echo │ * Then use either PFD or PFM to fill them out. ║
echo │ - PFM pulls names, addresses, etc. from your Mail Call (or other) ║
echo │ database, printing them right where you want them. ║
echo │ - "Auto-Edit" lets you quickly fill out forms -- in areas you marked. ║
echo │ - Math options (+-/*) add convenience, speed and accuracy !!! ║
echo │ - Print 1 form, or batch-print forms for many people at once--filled ║
echo │ out for you (PFM links forms to a database--filling them out for you)║
echo │ ║
echo │ PFD and PFM use many of the same commands as Mail Call (there's little ║
echo │ new to learn). But the magic is their ability to use the same database ║
echo │ files Mail Call does. This lets you manage most every piece of paper in ║
echo │ your office or home -- with one, consistent set of programs. ║
echo │ ║
echo │ PFD and PFM are only $45. They'll work with most any printer. And they ║
echo │ have special support for HP LaserJets (+/500/Series II or later) and Epson ║
echo │ printers. They'll also work with any printer. ║

echo I'll now display Sample2.Doc. This is 1 of 2 sample files we included
echo with Mail Call so you can test MC's 'Personalized Document' feature.
echo ══════════════════════════════════════════════════
echo Watch for phrases like '&name', '&street' or '&title.' MC looks for these
echo 'merge keys' and replaces them with info from your database. Often refer-
echo red to as a 'Mail Merge' feature, MC's Personalized Document feature is
echo EXTREMELY: Fast, Easy to Use, and Convenient
echo Please read both Sample.Doc and Sample2.Doc. And run both through MC.
echo Also see Letter.Doc and Memo.Doc -- very fast ways to dash off a quick
echo letter or memo - without a word processor.

echo MC is very easy to use. You can jump right in and use most features with
echo little trouble. Just type MC at the DOS prompt to begin.
echo ════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
echo But despite MC's 'apparent' simplicity, it has some powerful features.
echo To get the most out of MC, at least a quick glance at MC.Doc is essential.
echo To copy MC.Doc to your printer:
echo * Ensure your printer has about 30-40 sheets of paper
echo * Set it up to print 65-66 lines per page. MC.Doc sends a form feed
echo at the end of each page; some pages are 60 lines long.
echo * BE SURE to use fixed-space type (not proportional spacing). The
echo tables and charts look terrible when printed with proportionally
echo spaced fonts.
echo * Type 'COPY MC.DOC PRN' at the DOS prompt
echo * Registered users: also type 'COPY MCE.DOC PRN' to print MCE's
echo manual (about 15-20 pages).
echo ════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
echo We hope you find MC as easy-to-use, convenient and helpful as we've
echo found it to be in both our personal and business efforts. If you Don't,
echo please drop us a note with comments and suggestions.
