- 12 Mar 88 -- v1.0 Initial Release - Beta Test version
- compiled with Microsoft QuickBASIC version 2.0
-
-
- 18 Mar 88 -- v1.1 Compiled with Microsoft QuickBASIC version 4.0
- Used UCASE$ to convert strings to upper case for
- search. Decreased search times by approximately
- 10 times. Implemented F9 Keyword Entry Key,
- useful for Menu type data bases.
-
- Still has a Stack Overflow bug that I am unable
- to locate so stack was increased to 9000

- 20 Mar 88 -- v1.1 Added code so that program would not abort if
- no .DB files were present but rather ask
- FB20 for a new filename. Added colors to numbers.
- Added code so that {keywords line and ` line
- would not print to screen even if they were not
- on line 21, but they must be the first character
- on the line.
-
- 21 Mar 88 -- v1.2 Changed code to allow loading a plain ASCII file
- and then saving it with the F7 key fully formatted
- FB21 with keyword markers - end of record markers and
- end of file marker. File still requires minor editing
- but all markers are in place.
-
- Changed to a FULL 21 line screen with Keyword marker
- on line 22 and End Of File marker on line 23.
-
- Changed to version 1.2 -- FB21
-
- ~
- 24 Mar 88 -- v1.2 Changed code to allow INITIALLY loading a different file
- from the default file if desired, but a plain
- FB24 <cr> at the prompt still loads default file (ADDR.DB)
-
- Thanks to Robert Meusy for this suggestion.
-
- 25 Mar 88 -- v1.2 Fixed bug that was skipping lines 22 and 23 of straight
- ASCII files being input. Now reads and writes ASCII files
- FB25 okay. Writes EndOfRecord and Keyword and EndOfFile
- markers as it is supposed to do when writing out ASCII
- files.
- Fixed bug that would not allow second search, deletion or
- printing of search files if SEARCH found all files.
-
- Placed FBASE12.ARC on MARBBS for users to Beta test
-
- Added README.DB file to ARChive placed on MARBBS
-
- ~
- 26 Mar 88 -- v1.2 Fixed bug that would hang up on record 1 or 0 when several
- new records were loaded in.
-
- Fixed 'Search Record Not Found' message that was not working
- and blank screen that came up when no SEARCH matches were
- found.
-
- 28 Mar 88 -- v1.2 Revised DOCumentation file re. Keywords and hopefully made
- things a little clearer.
