- WELCOME TO GS TROOP TRACKER 1.0!
-
- An OVERVIEW OF GS TROOP TRACKER
-
- GS TROOP TRACKER is a menu driven program which stores valuable
- information on the Girls and Leaders of a Unit and presents that
- information in various reports of use to the Unit during its operation.
-
- Before any reports can be produced from the GS TROOP TRACKER
- program, the user must give GS TROOP TRACKER certain data to process.
- This input process starts by adding records to a troop roster. It is
- continued by updating individual Girl or Leader records with the
- details of their Registration record, Camping Experience, Service
- Record, Leadership served, Achievements attained and information on
- any/all Training received. The process continues by the addition of
- relevant details from all Events and Trips in which the unit
- participates.
-
- Depending upon the amount of data provided to GS TROOP TRACKER,
- the program will generate Girl and Leader rosters as well as a roster
- of Former Troop members; three different types of mailing labels; an
- individual record for each Girl or Leader; and other reports detailing
- honors in the Unit and skills mix of the unit.
-
- GS TROOP TRACKER requires 256K RAM and runs better on a hard disk
- system, although it will run more than adequately on a floppy disk
- drive system with High Density 5.25" drives or Double Density 720K
- 3.5" drives. The number of Girls/Leaders which the system can track is
- limited only by the amount of storage medium; systemically, GS TROOP
- TRACKER is designed to accommodate up to 499 Girls and 500 Leaders
- before requiring a total purging.

- DEFINITION OF SHAREWARE
-
- Shareware distribution gives users a chance to try software
- before buying it. If you try a Shareware program and continue using
- it, you are expected to register. Individual programs differ on
- details -- some request registration while others require it, some
- specify a maximum trial period. With registration, you get anything
- from the simple right to continue using the software to an updated
- program with printed manual.
- Copyright laws apply to both Shareware and commercial software,
- and the copyright holder retains all rights, with a few specific
- exceptions as stated below. Shareware authors are accomplished
- programmers, just like commercial authors, and the programs are of
- comparable quality. (In both cases, there are good programs and bad
- ones!) The main difference is in the method of distribution. The
- author specifically grants the right to copy and distribute the
- software, either to all and sundry or to a specific group. For
- example, some authors require written permission before a commercial
- disk vendor may copy their Shareware.
- Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. You
- should find software that suits your needs and pocketbook, whether
- it's commercial or Shareware. The Shareware system makes fitting your
- needs easier, because you can try before you buy. And because the
- overhead is low, prices are low also. Shareware has the ultimate
- money-back guarantee -- if you don't use the product, you don't pay
- for it.
-
- GS TROOP TRACKER USE AGREEMENT
-
- GS TROOP TRACKER is a "shareware program" and is provided at no
- charge to the user for evaluation. Feel free to share it with your
- friends, but please do not give it away altered or as part of another
- system. The essence of "user-supported" software is to provide
- personal computer users with quality software without high prices, and
- yet to provide incentive for programmers to continue to develop new
- products. If you find this program useful and find that you are using
- GS TROOP TRACKER and continue to use GS TROOP TRACKER after a
- reasonable trial period (30 DAYS), you must make a registration
- payment of $35.00 (PLUS $1.75 SALES TAX for Residents of the State of
- Maryland) to ROBERT BARRENTINE.
- The $35.00 registration fee will license one copy for use on any
- one computer at any one time. You must treat this software just like a
- book. An example is that this software may be used by any number of
- people and may be freely moved from one computer location to another,
- so long as there is no possibility of it being used at one location
- while it's being used at another. Just as a book cannot be read by two
- different persons at the same time.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- iii
- Anyone distributing GS TROOP TRACKER for any kind of remuneration
- must first contact ROBERT BARRENTINE at the address below for
- authorization. This authorization is automatically granted to
- distributors recognized by the Association of Shareware Professionals
- as adhering to its guidelines for shareware distributors, and such
- distributors may begin offering GS TROOP TRACKER immediately; however
- ROBERT BARRENTINE must still be advised so that the distributor can be
- kept up-to-date with the latest version of GS TROOP TRACKER. Mail such
- notification to Robert Barrentine, 321 1/2 Gorman Avenue, Laurel, MD
- 20707-4707 USA
-
- You are encouraged to pass a copy of GS TROOP TRACKER along to
- your friends for evaluation. Please encourage them to register their
- copy if they find that they can use it. All registered users will
- receive Support as described in Appendix A to this Manual.
-
- This program is produced by a member of the Association of
- Shareware Professionals (ASP). The ASP wants to make sure that the
- shareware principle works for you. If you are unable to resolve a
- shareware-related problem with an ASP member by contacting that member
- directly, ASP may be able to help. The ASP Ombudsman can help you
- resolve a dispute or problem with an ASP member, but does not provide
- technical support for member's products. Please write to the ASP
- Ombudsman at 545 Grover Road, Muskegon, MI 49442 or send a Compuserve
- message via Compuserve Mail to ASP Ombudsman 70007,3536.

- 1.0 RUNNING SETUP FOR GS TROOP TRACKER
-
- 1.0 SYSTEM CONSIDERATIONS. GS TROOP TRACKER will operate better
- if your CONFIG.SYS file contains these commands:
- FILES = 20
- BUFFERS = 20
- Additionally, the PATH command in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file should allow
- for a search of both drives [PATH = A:\;B:\], if on a double drive
- system. The PATH statement for a hard disk system need not include the
- TRACKER subdirectory, but may do so if that is your desire.
-
- 1.1 SETUP.EXE, included on the installation diskette, is a
- program that should be run prior to attempting to run GS TROOP TRACKER
- for the first time. It will ask you for certain information that it
- needs to build the various constants that will be referred to during
- the running of the GS TROOP TRACKER program.
-
- 1.2 MAKING BACKUP COPIES OF GS TROOP TRACKER
-
- 1.2.1 Double Disk Drive Systems. If you will be running GS TROOP
- TRACKER on a double disk drive system, make backup copies of the
- distribution diskettes BEFORE running SETUP. This will allow you to
- run SETUP at a later time should you move or purchase a computer with
- different storage medium configurations. There are no hidden files on
- the distribution diskette(s) so that you may use either "COPY" or
- "DISKCOPY" to copy the files. Store your distribution diskette(s)
- somewhere safe until you need them again.
-
- 1.2.2. Hard Drive Systems. GS TROOP TRACKER is designed to
- operate on any ONE subdirectory of a hard disk system; the writer
- recommends using "TRACKER" but the naming of this subdirectory is
- totally up to the user. Once the subdirectory is created ["MD
- <subdirectory name>"], move to that subdirectory ["CD <subdirectory
- name>"], and copy all files ["COPY A:*.*", once for each diskette]
- into that subdirectory. Store your distribution diskette(s) somewhere
- safe until you need them again.
-
- 1.3 RUNNING SETUP.EXE. If installing GS TROOP TRACKER on a hard
- disk, simply type "SETUP <cr>" while in the subdirectory which
- contains the GS TROOP TRACKER files. If installing GS TROOP TRACKER on
- a double disk drive machine, ensure that the disk with TRACKER.EXE is
- in drive B and the disk with SETUP.EXE is in drive A.
-
- 1.3.1 RESPONDING TO SETUP. Setup will ask you for your Council
- name and Neighborhood. After you respond to these questions, SETUP
- will ask for your Unit and Number; here you should type in either
- "TROOP nnnn" (where nnnn is the national number assigned to your
- unit). SETUP will then ask if GS TROOP TRACKER will be running on a
- hard disk system. Respond "Y" or "N", as appropriate. If you are
- installing GS TROOP TRACKER on a hard disk, SETUP will ask for the
- drive and your preferred backup drive. SETUP will then repeat the
- information you have typed in to insure that what you see is what you
- want. Type "Y" to accept the data or "N" to return SETUP to a place in
- the program where it will request the data again.
-
- -1-
-
- 1.3.2 WHAT IS SETUP DOING? All that SETUP is doing is creating a
- file [IDENT.MEM] that will be invoked during the running of GS TROOP
- TRACKER so that GS TROOP TRACKER will know where it is to operate and
- how to refer to your council and unit.
-
- 1.4 RUNNING GS TROOP TRACKER. To run GS TROOP TRACKER, type
- "GSTROOP" at the prompt.
-
-
- 2.0 ADDING DATA TO THE GS TROOP TRACKER TROOP ROSTER
-
- 2.1 Mechanics of Adding Data. With the GS TROOP TRACKER Master
- Menu on the screen, simply press the "1" key to initiate the add data
- process. If, having pressed the "1", you then decide you don't want to
- add a record to the roster, press the "Esc"ape key in the First Name &
- Initials field and then press "E" for exit at the end of the record.
-
- ** 2.1.1 TIP: Throughout GS TROOP TRACKER, keep the CAPS LOCK
- function of your computer ON. While most of the sorting done
- throughout GS TROOP TRACKER is date related, the reports produced will
- be more uniform if all letters are in upper case throughout. This is
- not, however, a requirement for entering data in any field as GS TROOP
- TRACKER converts data to upper case where that is required.
-
- 2.2 Discussion of the contents of the various fields in the Troop
- Roster dataset. While many of the fields in this record are self
- explanatory, there are a few which require expansion. For some fields,
- this expansion is simply in the form of tips while for others there
- are some system requirements. Please read these carefully.
-
- 2.2.1 RECORD. This is a machine-generated field which simply
- tells you how many records are in your dataset.
-
- ** 2.2.2 DATE. This is a machine-generated field which simply tells
- you the date your machine believes it is. NOTE: Some operators lazily
- do not insure that their computer has the correct date and time on the
- system clock before they begin work. GS TROOP TRACKER uses the system
- clock to fill a field in the Troop Roster which indicates when the
- Girl or Leader concerned joined the unit. This field is later used to
- discriminate records in some instances and when transferring a Girl or
- Leader from the active to the Former Member dataset. PLEASE INSURE
- THAT YOUR SYSTEM CLOCK IS CORRECT PRIOR TO STARTING GS TROOP TRACKER.
-
- 2.2.3 FIRST NAME & INITIALS. Self explanatory. Note the comments
- in 2.1 regarding aborting data entry.
-
- 2.2.4 FAMILY [or LAST or SUR-] NAME. Self explanatory.
-
- 2.2.5 ADDRESS, CITY, STATE [H-J]. Self explanatory.
-
-
-
- -2-
- ** 2.2.6 ZIP, PLUS4, AREA CODE, TELEPHONE . Self explanatory. Notice
- that the space for area code is larger than most area codes. This
- might give you space for telephone and extension, in area code and
- telephone number slots, if the area code is known and will never
- change; maximum characters in the area code blank is 7.
-
- 2.2.7 FAMILY DATA. Self explanatory.
-
-
- 3.0 EDITING GS TROOP TRACKER
-
- 3.1 Mechanics of Editing GS TROOP TRACKER Troop Roster Records.
- GS TROOP TRACKER gives you the opportunity to edit any element of
- information in any of its various datasets. With the TROOP TRACKER
- Master Menu displayed, press the "2" key and GS TROOP TRACKER will
- present your with a secondary menu allowing you to select the dataset
- to be edited. GS TROOP TRACKER will then prompt you for the name of
- the individual whose data you wish to edit. A <cr> at that prompt will
- take you back to the GS TROOP TRACKER Main Menu. When you type in a
- Girl or Leader's name at the prompt, GS TROOP TRACKER will isolate the
- record(s) that belong to that individual in the selected dataset and
- display it (them, one at a time) on the screen for editing. A side
- benefit of this editing process is that, once you're in the Roster
- dataset in the edit mode, you can move around the entire roster and
- edit records as you wish.
-
- ** 3.1.1 This ability to move to all the records in the roster
- dataset is extremely useful for editing the begin dates for members of
- the unit. In section 2.2.2, we mentioned that GS TROOP TRACKER uses
- the system clock and that one of the uses of the system clock is to
- add data to this BEGDATE field. Since you will be entering all members
- of the unit at one or two sittings in order to get this system up and
- running, before you get too far into using the system you want to
- remember to edit these BEGDATEs to the correct dates for each member
- of your unit.
-
-
- 4.0 DELETING A MEMBER OF YOUR UNIT FROM GS TROOP TRACKER
-
- 4.1. Mechanics of Deleting a Member of the Unit from GS TROOP
- TRACKER. At the GS TROOP TRACKER Main Menu prompt, type in the number
- "3" to activate the deletion module. WARNING: BE SURE THIS IS WHAT YOU
- WANT TO DO BEFORE YOU PROCEED TOO FAR INTO DELETE.
-
- ** 4.1.1 This module will prompt you for the name of the individual
- whose record you want to delete from the database. The system will go
- to that record and verify that this is the individual you want out
- before proceeding. Upon verification, GS TROOP TRACKER will delete ALL
- references to that individual from all secondary datasets [e.g.,
-
-
-
- -3-
- Achievement Dataset, Service Record Dataset, etc.] and will then move
- the name, date the individual joined the unit [BEGDATE] and date you
- are making this deletion into the Former Member Dataset. This is
- another reason to insure that the systems clock is correct before
- entering GS TROOP TRACKER.
-
- ** 4.2 TIP: Do an edit of the individual to be deleted prior to
- deletion to ensure that a member's BEGDATE, and name is as you want it
- to appear in the Former Member dataset. Further, print two copies of
- the individual's record with the unit (one for the individual and one
- for the troop's records) before you delete the Girl or Leader.
-
-
- 5.0 UPDATING AN INDIVIDUAL GIRL OR LEADER'S RECORD
-
- 5.1 Mechanics of Updating and Individual Girl or Leader's Record.
- This option should be selected to record individualized data such as
- Registration record, Achievements, Leadership Experiences and Training
- Taken. At the GS TROOP TRACKER Main Menu prompt, press the "4" to
- invoke the portions of the program which will update the various
- secondary datasets. You will be presented with a secondary menu in
- which you will be offered a selection of secondary datasets. Depending
- upon the option you select at this second menu, you will then be
- prompted for various pieces of information that the system will
- require to add data to a specified dataset.
-
- ** 5.2 TIPS: Add all skills, languages, and non-GSUSA training an
- individual may have received to the Training dataset. This is one of
- two datasets that GS TROOP TRACKER will search when you ask it for a
- printout of all individuals with a certain skill. An individual's
- experience just might serve as sufficient skill for some activities.
-
-
- 6.0 ADDING A TROOP OR PATROL ACTIVITY TO THE DATABASE
-
- 6.1 Mechanics of adding a Troop or Patrol Activity to the database.
- This option should be used to record unit activities such as Service
- Projects, Girl Scout Events, Trips, and Camping Experiences. At the GS
- TROOP TRACKER Main Menu, select option 5. As above, GS TROOP TRACKER
- will then ask you to select a specific dataset to which information is
- to be added and will solicit the common data (e.g., destination and
- date of a trip) regarding the activity to be logged. GS TROOP TRACKER
- will then take you through the Troop Roster, asking you if each member
- did or did not participate in the activity. Your responses to this
- query will decide whether a particular individual's record is updated
- with the activity information or not.
-
-
-
-
-
-
- -4-
- ** 6.2 Tip. If you have Girls who leave an event early, or arrive
- late to an event, you can log their attendance as a separate event so
- that their number of days and nights is accurate. Essentially, what
- you would do is to repeat all relevant data entered for the first
- activity log entry, except for the dates, which you would change to
- reflect the different dates attended.
-
-
- 7.0 PRINTING ROSTERS OR LABELS
-
- 7.1 Mechanics of printing rosters or labels. At the GS TROOP
- TRACKER Main Menu, select option 6 to activate this module. You will
- be presented with a secondary menu that will offer you a selection of
- three different label formats or three roster formats, discussed below.
-
- 7.2 Printing Rosters. GS TROOP TRACKER will prepare a roster of
- the Girls or Leaders in a troop which will include:
- For Girls: For Leaders:
- Name Name
- Address Address
- Telephone Home Telephone
- Parent's Names
-
- In addition to these rosters, GS TROOP TRACKER will also produce
- a roster of former members of your unit which includes their name, the
- date they joined the unit and the date they were removed from the
- troop roster.
-
- 7.2.1 The printing function invoked here includes an imbedded
- command to your printer to use the compressed print mode. This allows
- GS TROOP TRACKER to print four roster entries across a line of the
- printed page.
-
- 7.3 Printing Labels. GS TROOP TRACKER is designed to produce
- labels using labels of the following dimensions:
- Label width: 35 characters (3.5 inches)
- Label height: 5 lines
- Left Margin: 0
- Lines between labels: 1 (a total of 1 inch per label)
- Labels across the page: 1
-
- GS TROOP TRACKER will print three types of labels:
-
- 7.3.1 A set of labels for all Girls in the Troop addressed, "To
- the Parents of " each Girl. These are envisioned to be used with
- newsletters, committee letters, and other such mailings.
-
- 7.3.2 A set of labels for all Leaders in the unit. As with the
- "parent" labels, these are envisioned for specific mailing purposes.
-
-
-
- -5-
-
- 7.3.3 A set of generic return address labels. These labels, which
- include the Council, District, and Unit identification are envisioned
- to be used as return address labels where the returnability of the
- mailing is irrelevant (since no real "address" data is included) or
- they can be used to produce gummed labels for labeling unit equipment.
-
-
- 8.0 PRINTING/VIEWING SPECIFIED REPORTS
-
- 8.1 Mechanics of printing or viewing reports. At the GS TROOP
- TRACKER Main Menu, select option "7" to activate the printing module.
- At the secondary menu, select the desired report and respond to system
- prompts as appropriate. In general, GS TROOP TRACKER is set up to
- deliver 75 characters of print across a page with a 5 character margin.
-
- 8.1.2 Individual Girl (or Leader) Record. (This report will only be
- printed.) This report will print all details of a Girl (or Leader) as
- reflected in Troop records. The data is presented so that this report
- can serve as a Transfer Sheet for an individual as it contains a place
- for a certifying signature from the Scoutmaster.
-
- 8.1.3 Members with a Particular Skill. (This report can be either
- printed or viewed.) To produce this report, GS TROOP TRACKER will ask
- for the skill you are searching for. It will then search the Merit
- Badge dataset and the Training dataset to see who in the unit has the
- desired skill. You will be given a list of these people with the
- element of information that made GS TROOP TRACKER select them.
- NOTE: Specifying the skill you will be searching on is an
- acquired skill which is based, in part, on how much data you have
- logged into the system on the skills your Girls or Leaders have
- received in training. As discussed in section 5, the more details you
- insert in the training dataset the better you will be able to use this
- function.
-
-
- 9.0 BACKING UP TROOP DATA TO FLOPPY DISK.
-
- 9.1 THIS PROCEDURE IS DESIGNED TO BE USED ONLY BY HARD DISK
- SYSTEMS. Double floppy disk systems can achieve the desired level of
- data security by simply copying the diskette with the various .DBF and
- the IDENT.MEM files onto a blank, formatted diskette using DOS.
-
- 9.2 Backing up data is a procedure that is seldom appreciated
- until a tragic accident or electronic malfunction reminds people that
- they should have backed up. WE STRONGLY URGE UNITS TO MAINTAIN SECURE
- COPIES OF ALL DATA. In fact, we recommend that units maintain a two or
- three tiered backup system so that you have a somewhat redundant
- backup disk collection.
-
-
-
- -6-
- 9.3 Before invoking this module, please ensure that you have a
- blank, formatted diskette available. REMEMBER, write on the label
- before putting the label on the diskette.
-
-
- 10. RECONFIGURING OR REDEFINING YOUR PRINTER INFORMATION
-
- 11.1 To activate the redefine your printer function, press the
- letter "P" while in the GS TROOP TRACKER Main Menu. You will be
- prompted to input the reference number that is used with your printer.
- The list of Printers support by GS TROOP TRACKER and their reference
- numbers is located in Appendix C.

- Appendix C - Setting Up Your Printer
-
- GS TROOP TRACKER has been designed to work with the printers listed
- below. Upon running GS TROOP TRACKER for the first time, you will be
- asked to define the printer that you will be using with this program.
- Select the printer your system is using from the list of printers
- provided below and make a note (mental or otherwise) of the number
- that has been assigned to that printer. When requested by GS TROOP
- TRACKER, type in the number that corresponds to your printer and GS
- TROOP TRACKER will make the various codes that apply to your printer a
- part of its operating memory.
-
- NOTE: If your specific printer is not listed below, consult your
- printer's User Manual to determine which of the printers listed below
- are the printers that are compatible with your printer. Some trial and
- error testing will indicate which printer selection gives you the best
- results.
-
- Should you ever changes your printer, select the menu option on the
- GS TROOP TRACKER Main Menu which allows you to change your printer.
- After consulting the list below, type in the number that corresponds
- to the new printer that you are using. GS TROOP TRACKER will make the
- necessary changes to the operating files and you may immediately begin
- to use your new printer settings.
