README.1ST FILE DATAPRO PROGRAM January 1992
DATAPRO#.EXE Data Processing Course
Version 3 Registration copy $20.00, plus $2.00 p/h
DESCRIPTION: Take this data processing course, written for a computer
training school. Gain skills. Apply for and get a good job. Has a warm-
up on-screen numeric keypad for learning number input, six data-input
programs (invoices, mail order records, voting records, addresses, sales
commissions, and payroll), two job tests that companies use to find
qualified people, and an action numbers game in which you type numbers
before they fall like missiles and destroy your city buildings. This is
also an excellent program for use by teachers of data processing!
DATAPRO is sent in one file named DATAPRO#.EXE. To put DATAPRO#.EXE
on your hard disk, make a new directory by typing MD C:\DATAPRO [ENTER].
Then type COPY A:DATAPRO#.EXE C:\DATAPRO [ENTER]. Then go to the new
directory by typing CD C:\DATAPRO [ENTER] and type DATAPRO#. The file will
split up into over a dozen files. (The next time you wish to start up the
program, just type CD C:\DATAPRO [ENTER] and then type DP [ENTER].) If you
do not have a hard disk, tell us your IBM floppy disk size so we can try to
get you a usable program. (There is not enough room on 360K disks to split
DATAPRO#.EXE into different files on Drive A:.)
For the data input programs there are data files (PRINTME files) that
must be printed out by you BEFORE you use the program. When these are
printed, you will get the exact data needed to type into the six input
programs. So turn your printer on, go to the DATAPRO directory if you are
not already there (type CD C:\DATAPRO [ENTER] to go there), and print out
the files like this:
TYPE PRINTME.NUM > PRN [ENTER] (Wait for printing to stop.)
TYPE PRINTME.L&N > PRN [ENTER] (Wait for printing to stop.)
TYPE PRINTME.PAY > PRN [ENTER] (Wait for printing to stop.)
TYPE PRINTME.SAL > PRN [ENTER] (Wait for printing to stop.)
TYPE PRINTME.VOT > PRN [ENTER] (Wait for printing to stop.)
TYPE PRINTME.VOT > PRN [ENTER] (Wait for printing to stop.)
TYPE PRINTME.ADD > PRN [ENTER]
There are about 30 pages to print for each of the first two files, and only
5 or 6 pages to print for the others. To bind the printed sheets together,
you might use BINDER CLIPS, obtainable at any office supply or Kmart.
As you gain input speed and accuracy, and are happy with scores on
timing printouts, you may send the printouts, $1.00 for each, and a stamped
self-addressed envelope to the address below, and receive HONOR ROLL
Certificates of Achievement (with your name and printout information on
them), suitable for framing, or copying and mailing to possible employers
as part of your job application letters. They show your proficiency!
A school room version of DATAPRO (with pertinent school information)
and permission to make backups for one classroom is available for $20.00
plus $50.00 per classroom, and $2.00 once for postage/handling. If wanted,
ask for a school version of DATAPRO for each classroom. Extremely easy to
use, DATAPRO has been thoroughly tested at a computer training school.
If you have questions, phone 1 (313) 627-3111. Have fun and gain
skill! Good luck in finding a suitable job!
