- Additional information for users of Microsoft Access:
-
- The EXTERNAL.MDB file found in the Win-Mail directory was included
- as a bonus feature for those who use Microsoft's Access Database.
- This file contains the table "Messages", which can be "opened" or
- "attached" by MS Access. The file is not part of Win-Mail's active
- message database and is accessed by the program only when the "Save/db"
- button is depressed when using Win-Mail's message editor. The "Purge"
- and "Compact Database" functions of Win-Mail will have no effect on
- the file EXTERNAL.MDB. This file is yours to manage as you wish.
-
- While in the message editor, any active message may be "saved" to the
- EXTERNAL.MDB file by clicking on the "Save/db" button. You will then
- be given the choice of typing in a "keyword" or selecting one from a
- "list box". This keyword adds functionality to your personal message
- database by allowing you to sort or query your messages by topic.
- Messages that you are interested in keeping because of their technical
- or other value will then be added to EXTERNAL.MDB, allowing you to query,
- sort, filter, report and use the other database "tools" at your disposal
- under MS Access.
-
- Providing you with easy access to the database features of Win-Mail and MS
- Access will hopefully open up a vast new potential for the management of your
- message base. The tools to easily create a personal "Knowledge Base" that will
- take advantage of the wealth of information "on-line" are available to you with
- these two programs.
-
-
-
- 3rd Party Programs and/or Development:
-
- You may contact Karl Caillouet and/or Brian Gay in the Windows or WinSysop
- echos for 3rd party programs and/or development utilities.
-
-
-
- User Support Echo:
-
- We have intentions of providing a WINMAIL users support echo on
- FidoNet. Once we are able to get the echo on-line Karl Caillouet
- will be the moderator of the echo. Until that time Brian Gay
- (moderator of WinSysop) and Jerry Schwartz (moderator of Windows)
- have gave us permission to discuss WIN-MAIL in those echos.
