- BBS COPY OF ARS LOGBOOK v5.2
-
-
- Welcome to Amateur Radio Station LOGBOOK software. I hope you find
- this BBS copy interesting enough to want a REGISTERED copy. All the
- functions for logging are included in the BBS copy. The only sections
- that are limited are as follows:
-
- 1) The logs are limited to 100 entries maximum. You may make
- several logs but each is limited to 100 QSO's per log file.
-
- 2) You cannot update the DXINFO database from the program. In a
- REGISTERED copy, you could ADD a NEW prefix to or EDIT any
- errors the current data. The database file can be updated using
- dBASE III Plus if you have the inclination to do so.
-
- 3) You cannot perform an automatic BACKUP or RESTORE of the log
- files as you could in a REGISTERED copy. This feature is fully
- automatic once the user selects what and where to backup or
- restore. As with any software program that generates data
- files, backups are the most important item behind the program
- itself.
-
- 4) You cannot branch to DOS as in a REGISTERED copy. This is a
- nice feature to have if you need to setup a printer external
- to the program or need to format a backup disk.
-
-
- Also, with this BBS copy the USER manual is not the complete manual set.
- In order to limit the size required for downloading a simple startup
- manual was extracted from the FULL manual set. Where the full manual
- set is appx. 90 pages with a table of contents and comes preformatted,
- ready to print, the BBS manual only covers the basics of the program such
- as start up and command overview. On-line help is available on the BBS
- version if needed.
-
- So as you can see, you can get a good feel as to how ARS LOGBOOK works
- using the BBS copy and then if you decide to register for $24.95, you
- will receive a full function copy with a complete manual set, FREE
- technical support, upgrades and be eligible for rebates.
-
- BBS Version Distribution Files
-
- The following files are included in the BBS version set. Due to the
- eed to limit the size of the download set for a BBS version, several
- support files not required for the BBS version were not included which
- will be included in a REGISTERED version. These include a Report Gene-
- ration Utility for creating custom report forms, a FULL manual set and
- others. The following is a list of the contents of the ZIPPED
- files:
-
- REGFORM.TXT
- README.1ST
- LOG521.EXE
- LOG521.OVL
- HELP.DBF (DO NOT INSTALL ON FLOPPY SYSTEM ALONG WITH DXINFO.DBF)
- HELP.NTX (SAME AS ABOVE - NOT ENOUGH ROOM TO DO BOTH OPTIONS)
- DXINFO.DBF
- MANUAL.TXT
-
-
- *********************************
- ** Installing the BBS copy **
- *********************************
-
- NOTE: Only the hard disk system will be discussed here. If you need
- to install ARS LOGBOOK on a floppy only system, contact the author.
- Instrcution on installation for floppy only and special system require-
- ments are discussed in detail in the full manual set.
-
- 1) I would recommend creating a specific subdirectory for all the files
- to reside.
-
- 2) Once extracted and/or copied, select the subdirectory where the files
- reside, if not already there.
-
- 3) Enter the command to start the program as follows:
-
- LOG521 followed by RETURN
-
- 4) Follow the prompts to initialize the program and create the default
- log file set, 'LOGBOOK'.
-
