READ-ME.DOC - IMPORTANT INFORMATION
SETTING YOUR SYSTEM FOR A MAXIMUM NUMBER OF OPEN FILES
VERY IMPORTANT! If you wish to "try" this program before doing a "full"
installation by using INSTALL.EXE, it is necessary to set your CONFIG.SYS
Boot-Up file so that it contains the following command line...,
FILES = 25 (or more - within reason)
INSTALL.EXE will automatically do this if you have a hard drive, but you
must set this manually if you don't run the installation program. See your
DOS/MS-DOS instruction manual on CONFIG.SYS for more information. Not
setting this command properly can cause the Program, Printer or System to
jam up when "GP" attempts to open one too many files.
OLDER "*.DTA" FILES NO LONGER COMPATIBLE
Beginning with "GP" version 3.0, the data files created with earlier
versions of GIST-PLUS are no longer "upward" compatible.
New Registered Users will receive a support file named OLDSTYLE.EXE which
will convert the older INVOICE.DTA and CUSTOMER.DTA files into the newer
style INVOICE.REC and CUSTOMER.REC data files. OLDSTYLE.EXE is NOT included
with UnRegistered Versions in an effort to keep the (already too large)
UpLoad/DownLoad Archive Files as small as possible, and because this file
is NOT needed to "Evaluate" GIST-PLUS.
USING OUR SAMPLE DATA FILES
If you have never used this program before, and are just "checking it out"
to see if it does what you want, then answer "Y" (for YES) when asked if
you want to "USE THE SAMPLE CUSTOMER & INVOICE FILE?".
A "yes" answer will provide you with a couple of demo data files which show
many of the features of this program, and save YOU the time and trouble of
entering your own data just to "try" this program.
