- This readme file conatins additional instructions regarding MailPro.
-
-
- ABOUT MAILPRO:
-
- Please read the MAILPRO.DOC file first. If you do not initialize the disk
- on which you intend to keep your data, the program will NOT work.
-
- Additions to documentation:
-
- When in the printing area of "BUILD LIST", any printing may be aborted by
- hitting the escape key - [ESC].
-
- Within the program it is possible to change the colors being used.
- However, I have included a default set of colors for use on a color
- monitor (I suggest you try it on a color monitor, it looks a lot nicer).
- Use the following command to set the default colors:
- COPY COLOR COLORUSE
- and
- COPY BW COLORUSE
- to change it back for monochrome.
-
- Any suggestions or problems should be sent to ProData Systems. We
- appreciate your support.

- NOTE: Several minor bugs were fixed between version 2.0 and
- version 2.1.
- * When running the systems menu (F5), the menus did not reset
- themselves at each level. They now do.
- * When running MailPro in its commercial mode, both the company
- name and the addressee were labeled as "Company" in a number of
- places, causing some slight confusion. This has been fixed.
- * Screen displays were speeded up by about 65% (though this is
- so fast already, you probably won't notice it.)
- * The entry counter at the bottom of the operations menu did not
- clear before re-writing. When going from the 100th entry to
- the 99th, then counter would read 990. This has been fixed.
-
- NOTE: Several additions were made between version 2.1 and
- version 2.2.
- * A MailMerge feature has been added in the BuildList area.
- [CONTROL] & [F5] together will cause the active list to be
- dumped to a file, delimited with quotes and commas.
- * When printing a form from the BuilList area, the user now has
- the option of having "City State" print as "City, State." with
- both comma and period inserted.
-
- NOTE: Several changes were made between version 2.2 and
- version 2.3.
- * The data input areas, those places where you enter more than a
- single letter, have been changed in some places. A generic
- input routine has been implemented to better handle improper
- key-strokes, as well as to set the stage for several future
- upgrades. This means that answering questions in the program
- may occur somewhat differently than as described in the
- manual. Don't be alarmed by this !!!
- * This upgrade uses a new version of the Turbo Pascal compiler
- (version 4.0). The program MailPro.EXE is now the active
- version of the program. You MUST delete MailPro.COM. You may
- also delete:
- Mp1Files.COM
- Mp1.COM
- Mp1.000 - Mp1.011 ( Mp1.0?? )
- State.DAT
-
- NOTE: Several changes were made between version 2.3 and
- version 2.3B.
- * The versions before 2.3B had a bug which erased the preset
- forms whenever the data disk was initialized. It was possible
- to re-copy the "FORMS" file from the purchased disk to your
- working copy afterwards, but inconvenient. This problem has
- been fixed.
