- ABOUT SHAREWARE...
-
- Shareware (also known as user supported software and other names) is a
- concept not understood by everyone. The authors of Shareware retain all
- rights to the software under the copyright laws while still allowing
- free distribution. This gives the user the chance to freely obtain and
- try out software to see if it fits his needs. Shareware should not be
- confused with Public Domain software even though they are often obtained
- from the same sources.
-
- If you continue to use Shareware after trying it out, you are expected
- to register your use with the author and pay a registration fee. What
- you get in return depends on the author, but may include a printed
- manual, free updates, telephone support, etc. Only by paying for the
- Shareware you use do you enable the Shareware author to continue to
- support his software and create new programs. Considering that the
- Shareware registration fees are almost always far less than the purchase
- price of comparable commercial software it's obvious that Shareware is a
- good deal for everyone.
-
- There are real advantages to you in the Shareware system. You get to
- try out software to make sure it is compatible with your hardware and
- that it fits your needs before you "buy" it with your registration.
- The author saves the expense of advertising, packaging and distribution
- and passes the savings on to you. Plus, most Shareware authors are
- much more accessible than commercial software sources so that your
- questions and suggestions are much more likely to be responded to.

- Thank you for your support.
-
- To start, enter EZPARTS. Simple, the screen will be basically blank,
- this is because you have no parts entered into your new database.
- Use the HELP key or press enter to begin entering partnumbers. The
- good news is after you have decided that EZPARTS is right for your
- needs and you send for a registered copy your test database will be
- usable without any modifications. Inaddition, you will be able to
- specify other databases other than the default PARTFILE.DB with the
- registered copy. EZPARTS was designed to be run from a PC with a hard
- drive and a EGA/VGA color monitor, it will however work off of floppies
- and a monochrome monitor. If there are any problems with EZPARTS and
- your system please let us know as we can not test it on every machine.
-
- Thanks again........ Simple Software
