General Comments:
You can answer your international needs by renaming the fields
according to the conventions in your country, hereby, organizing
the information the way you want it. You can also use this exact
same feature to use Address for other purposes. For instance,
you can keep a bibliography listing for your papers by changing
the field names to "Publication Title," "Publisher," "Authors"
and etc....
To those people who sent us their mailing address and have not
received anything in the mail yet, apologies. We will send another
bunch toward the end of this week. We delayed the mailing a bit so
that we can get V1.1 to you.
Many thanks to all those people who took the time to let us
know about their ideas, problems, comments and simply what they
think.

Address for Windows is Shareware!
FOLLOWING is a more verbose description for those who missed it:
Address for Windows is designed to be a "light" address book for
business and personal use. It represents information esthetically and
with unmatched clarity. A major design goal was to make every tool
and feature of the program self-explanatory and highly intuitive.
Address approaches the user with WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You
Get) style from every corner. The Main Window of Address was design
with ease of use and esthetic clarity in mind. As the user edits
new records into the Address Book, Address builds an elegant Index
Window where the entries in the Address Book are alphabetizes in a
hierarchical fashion for swift and familiar access.
Address provides the user with a truly magnificent WYSIWYG visual
editor to work the look and feel of your Rolodex Cards and Mailing
Labels. In order to print Cards, simply drag the records right from
the Index Window onto the Rolodex Card in the Layout Window.
And since the power of any database lies within it's communicability
with other applications, Address implements a sophisticated and easy
to use interface for exporting information in many data formats and to
any application via Clipboard, DDE and files. Address also imports
comma delimited files, and Windows Card Files.
Other features of Address include full context-sensitive help for
every screen with friendly and practical help with examples and
illustrations. Smart-Auto-Dialer that enables you to use your modem
to dial calls for you simply and easily with a click of a button. The
Smart Dial feature does not dial numbers blindly, it compares with the
local area code and number formatting conventions to determine what
digits are actually required to dial. CopyLink to setup DDE links
with three quick mouse clicks. Inter-field text dragging.
There are many more features in the program than can fit into this
already long description. If the program interests you, you should
really give it a try. You either get it from CompuServe, ftp and BBSs
or just mail us or call us with your mailing address. We will send
the program to you for free and with no obligations.
