1.1 Program Description
Year Planner is an organizing tool which mimics the familiar "write-
on, wipe-off" wall planner calendar system most businesses use to
schedule important events. You are allowed to write deadlines,
appointments, and other important information into "day blocks" which
can later be printed out in a large standard calendar format.
Information can be easily updated or erased altogether and reprinted.
Features include an overlay template to apply similar messages in many
"day blocks" like the first Monday of every month, a pop-up notepad, a
search feature, instantly know the current day number and the number
of days left in the year, a month at a glance feature, an onscreen
year summary so you can see the whole year at a glance, large calendar
printouts (weeks start on any day you choose), and all major holidays
already built in.
>>>> System Requirements:
* 512K of main memory.
* One 5 1/4 " floppy drive.
* One hard disk drive. (optional)
* IBM PC or compatible.
* files=40 and buffers=40 in CONFIG.SYS file.
Page 1
2.1 System Installation
Floppy Drive System:
To install the year planner program on a floppy drive system, just
copy the CALENDAR.EXE, UTILITY.EXE, SETUP.EXE, BRUN30.EXE and
CHECK.EXE files over to a blank, formatted floppy diskette. You will
have more than enough space on the floppy diskette to hold the
program, the yearly data files, and the printer control codes setup
file.
Hard Drive System:
To install the year planner program on a hard disk, you should first
create a new subdirectory on the hard disk and then copy the
CALENDAR.EXE, UTILITY.EXE, SETUP.EXE, CHECK.EXE, and BRUN30.EXE files
to the newly created subdirectory. The commands to create the new
subdirectory are:
C>cd \ goes to the root directory
C>md calendar makes a new subdirectory called calendar
C>cd \calendar goes to the calendar subdirectory
(C> is the DOS prompt and is not part of the command)
Once you have created the new subdirectory, you should copy the
calendar.exe and setup.exe program files to the subdirectory. Use the
DOS copy command to do this. Make sure you are in the calendar
subdirectory before issuing this command. The command has the
following format:
C>copy d:\path\filename
Where d:\path\ is the pathname for the location of the calendar.exe
file. For example, if the file was in the root directory on drive A
then the copy commands would look like this:
C>copy A:calendar.exe
C>copy A:utility.exe
C>copy A:setup.exe
C>copy A:brun30.exe
C>copy A:check.exe
As another example, if the calendar.exe file were in a subdirectory
called XTALK on drive C then the commands would look like this:
C>copy C:\xtalk\calendar.exe
C>copy C:\xtalk\utility.exe
C>copy C:\xtalk\setup.exe
C>copy C:\xtalk\brun30.exe
C>copy c:\xtalk\check.exe

2.2 Starting the Program
Floppy Drive System:
1) Insert the floppy diskette created in section 2.1 into drive A.
2) Make sure you have the A> prompt.
3) Type CALENDAR and then press 'enter'.
4) The main menu will appear.
Hard Drive System:
1) Go to the subdirectory created is section 2.1: C>cd \calendar
2) Type CALENDAR and then press 'enter'.
3) The main menu will appear.
Note: In the current version, you have the ability to create more than
one calendar file. You can enter the calendar file name on the command
line when you start the program (CALENDAR filename) or, if you don't
enter it on the command line, you will be prompted by the program to
enter a calendar file name.

2.4 Initializing a New Year
Before doing anything such as entering appointments or printing a
calendar, you must first initialize the calendar file for the year you
would like to work with. To do this, choose option U on the main menu
to go to the utility menu:
---------------------------------------------------
| Year Planner v2.92 Utility Menu |
| |
| O) Onscreen Summary. |
| P) Print Calendar. |
| I) Initialize file for a New Year. |
| A) Add/Update Important Dates. |

| |
---------------------------------------------------
Then choose option I on the utility menu. After entering the name of
the file that you want to initialize, you will get the following
prompt:
Enter year (YY): ..
Esc to Exit.
After you enter the year, the calendar file will be initialized. All
"day blocks" will be set equal to spaces. After the file has been
initialized, you will get the following prompt:
Do you want to insert Holidays in calendar ? (Y/N)...
If you answer Y to the prompt, all major holidays will be
automatically inserted in the last line of the appropriate "day
block". If you answer N to the prompt, all "day blocks" will remain
blank.
Note that all year's are supported up to year 1999. And holidays are
included only for years 1987 thru 1992. Future holidays and years will
be updated on a yearly basis or as needed.

If your printer is listed on the menu above, then simply press the
letter corresponding to your printer. Otherwise, press C for custom
printer setup. Whether you choose a specific printer or custom setup,
the next screen you get will be the custom printer setup screen:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Enter the following control codes for your printer. There |
| are 10 spaces available for each set of codes. Usually, |
| just 1 or 2 codes are needed for each printer mode, so just |
| enter the values necessary starting from the left, leaving |
| the unused values blank (or 0). All numbers are in decimal: |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------|

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Page 6
2.5 (continued)
If you chose a specific printer on the first menu, then the codes for
that printer will appear on the screen above; otherwise, the codes
will be blank. If you need to enter codes for your printer, look them
up in your printer manual and enter them on the screen above. Press
F10 when you have entered the last code. The codes will be stored on
disk and you will proceed to the next screen. The decimal codes can
usually be found in a table in the back of your printer manual or in a
section that describes the different printer modes and tells you what
codes to send from software to put your printer into that mode.
Color Setup:
After you are finished entering the printer control codes, you will
get the following color setup screen:
----------------------------------------
| Color Setup Screen. |
| |

----------------------------------------
To change the screen colors, simply press the appropriate key
corresponding to the area that you want to change. Eight colors are
available for each area of the screen. As you press F, for example,
the foreground color will change each time the F key is pressed. Note
that the foreground color cannot be the same as the background color.
If you are using a monochrome monitor, just press M on the menu above.
When the colors are set the way you want them, press S to save the
color setup.
Error Message Pause Time:
The next screen you will get is:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
| Enter the number of seconds you would like error messages |
| to be displayed on the screen (1-10 secs): .. |
-------------------------------------------------------------------
To finish the setup routine, just enter the number of seconds that you
want all error messages to be displayed on the screen.

3.1 (continued)
Use the PgUp and PgDn keys to move up and down between months and use
the Ctrl Left Arrow and Ctrl Right Arrow cursor movement keys to move
left and right between days of a month. With all movement keys, make
sure you are moving to a valid day. For example, you cannot move up to
the 30th day in February.
Entering Appointments:
To enter an appointment or other information just type the information
into the appropriate "day block" and then save it. A "day block" is
saved by pressing the F10 function key or by moving on to another "day
block". Make sure all "day blocks" are saved before pressing Esc.
Pressing Esc just returns back to the main menu without doing any
saving first.
Refer to sections 3.2(a-d), 3.3, 3.4, and 3.9 for more information
about working on a calendar.

3.2a The Overlay Template
The overlay template is used to apply the same information into
several "day blocks" without having to retype it every time. There
are two functions involved: Ctrl E will allow you to edit the template
and Ctrl A will allow you to apply the template to the current "day
block".
Editing the template:
While working on a calendar, press Ctrl E and the following screen
will appear:
--------------------
|T ............... |
|E ............... |
|M --Vacation--... |
|P ............... |
|L ............... |
|A ............... |
|T ............... |
|E ............... |
| ............... |
| ............... |
--------------------
Press F10 when finished editing template.
Just type in the information you want the template to hold for you
until you apply the template. For example you could put "--Vacation--"
in the template and then apply the template to the days that you will
be on vacation.
Applying the template:
To apply the template, you should first go to the day that you want to
apply the template to and then simply press Ctrl A. The template will
be applied to the current day. Note that lines which were not entered
in the template will not erase information that was in the "day block"
before you applied the template. To apply the template to another day
just move to another day and press Ctrl A again.

day of the month (1st,2nd,etc) and then choose a month from and to
range. When you are finished, press F10 and the overlay template will
be applied to the selected days.

3.2c Searching for a Character String
While working on a calendar, you may want to search for a character
string. For example, let's search for "Christmas" to see what day it
falls on in 1992. Simply press Ctrl F and the following screen will
appear:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| This function will search the calendar and notepad for |
| the specified string. You also have the option to search |
| forward or backward starting with the current day of the |
| current month. |
| |
| Search String: |
| |
| Forward or Backward (F/B)? |

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Simply enter "Christmas" at the Search String prompt (case does not
matter) and whether you want to search forward or backward. Press F10
when you are finished and the first "day block" with the word
"Christmas" in either the "day block" or notepad will be displayed.

3.6 Printing the Calendar
This option allows you to print a calendar for a range of months.
Choose option P on the utility menu and you will get the following
menu:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| 1992 |
| |
| Enter Month (MM) From... |
| |
| To... |
| |
| How many times do you want to print this calendar ?...1 |
| |
| Do you want to print the notepad text after each month ? (Y/N)...N |
| |
| Do you want to print in condensed mode ? (Y/N)...Y |
| |
| Do you want to print lines with Asterisks or Graphics ? (A/G)...A |
| |
| Enter title for calendar... |
| |
| Is your printer a HP,IBM,Epson, or Other compatible ? (H/I/E/O)... |
| |
| Start weeks with (SUN/MON/TUE/WED/THU/FRI/SAT) ?... |
| |
| Press F10 when finished with options. |
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Just answer the questions appropriately and press F10 when you are
finished. The title will be printed at the top of each page.
The TITLE will print in double wide characters if you have an Epson or
IBM compatible printer. If you do not have an Epson or IBM compatible
printer, make sure you specify that in the last question on the menu
above.
Please be sure you have entered your printer control codes (section
2.5) correctly before executing this routine. If you print in
condensed mode, the calendar will be printed in 8.5 x 11 format,
otherwise it will be printed in 14 x 11 format. Both formats should
print in 8 lines per inch mode.
Note (8 lpi): If your printout is longer than one 11" page, then your
8 lines per inch control codes are not working or you reset or turned
off your printer after the codes were sent to the printer.
Note (graphics): In order to print graphics, your printer must be able
to accept graphics characters. Please be sure the symbol set your
printer is using contains the extended graphics characters to print
boxes. HP Laserjet compatible printers will automatically load the PC-
8 symbol set that contains the graphics characters.
The "START WEEKS WITH..." question above allows you to start each week
on a different day other than the normal way (Sunday).

3.11 CHECK (external display program)
This is a stand-alone program that will display the current week's
"day blocks" on the screen. It can be very useful if put in a batch
file or even in the autoexec.bat file so the calendar will be
displayed when you turn your computer on. The format of the check
command is: CHECK c:\subdirectory\filename
Where c:\subdirectory is the drive letter and subdirectory where you
have installed Year Planner. For example, if the Year Planner system
was installed in the CALENDAR subdirectory on the C drive and the
calendar file you wanted to check was TEST91 then the command would
be:
CHECK c:\calendar\test91
Also... make sure that the CHECK.EXE program file is in the
subdirectory where you want to execute it from. (otherwise you will
get a program not found error). If you put the check command in the
autoexec.bat file, copy the CHECK.EXE file to your root directory.
