As the exclusive copyright holder for Diamond Data, The Software
Construction Co. authorizes distribution only in accordance with the

ASP Approved Vendors in good standing are hereby given permission to
distribute Diamond Data package. Non-ASP member vendors must request
permission prior to distributing this package.
The Diamond Data package is defined as containing all the material listed
in the PACKING.LST text file. If any files listed in the PACKING.LST text
file, or the PACKING.LST file itself, are missing, then the package is not
complete and distribution is forbidden. Please contact us to obtain a
complete package suitable for distribution.
The Diamond Data package - including all related program files and
documentation files - CANNOT be modified in any way and must be distributed
as a complete package, without exception. The PACKING.LST text file
contains a list of all files that are part of the Diamond Data package.
Small additions to the package, such as the introductory or installation
batch files used by many shareware disk vendors, are acceptable.
No price or other compensation may be charged for the Diamond Data
package. A distribution fee may be charged for the cost of the diskette,
shipping and handling, as long as the total (per disk) does not exceed
US$8.00 in the U.S. and Canada, or US$12.00 internationally.
Disk Sets & CD-ROMs:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Diamond Data package CANNOT be sold as part of some other inclusive
package. Nor can it be included in any commercial software packaging
offer, without a written agreement from The Software Construction Co.
ASP Approved Vendors who wish to distribute the Diamond Data package
as part of a collection (such as PsL's MegaDisk set, or a CD-ROM
package) may do so provided that all the other restrictions are met.
Vendors (non-ASP Vendor Members) who wish to distribute the
Diamond Data package as part of a collection (such as PsL's MegaDisk
set, or a CD-ROM package) must obtain permission from The Software
Construction Co. prior to beginning such a distribution.
If you wish to add any of our programs to a CD-ROM or other collection,
please check the release date of the version you have. If the version
is over twelve (12) months old then please contact us to ensure that you
have the most current version. This version was released in August, 1992.

the-Month, or as part of a subscription or monthly service, then the
following restrictions apply:
ASP Associate (Disk Vendor) Members in good standing are hereby given
permission to distribute the Diamond Data package under the Disk-of-
the-Month style of distribution.

You cannot use a Disk-of-the-Month distribution to use up your inventory

Disk-of-the-Month disks.
The PRINTED User's Guide may not be reproduced in whole or in part,
using any means, without the written permission of The Software
