PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
-------------------
Address Database Professional is an extremely powerful
electronic name and address book that is specifically
designed to handle a large number of names and addresses.
Address Database Professional is ideal for home or office
use. Since it is a Windows program, it is simple to use.
Address Database Professional allows you to:
* Store all your names and addresses.
* Store and print notes about each person in your address
book; If you have previously stored notes for a person,
the notes button contains the file name next to it to
alert you of the stored notes.
* Change and delete information in your address book;
Quickly find a particular person in your address book.
* Undelete (restore) names previously deleted; once you
are sure you will never need them, you may purge your
undeleted names.
* Maintain a list of people you generally send holiday
cards and gifts to; print a report of the holiday list.
* Print a phone list or address book of names in the
address book; customize the report by choosing the font
size, font characteristics, how many lines to skip
between names and the number of lines to skip prior
to printing the page.
* Print an address book of the names; print them on
standard paper or in Day-Timer Jr. size.
* Print a report named "Address Book with Notes". This
report prints an address book that contains all the
notes stored for each person. You can choose to print
only those names that have stored notes or all names in
your address book.
* Print a compressed Address Book Report. This is a
small-font report that lists all names and addresses in
a two-line per record format.
* Print mailing labels of people you choose; print
multiple copies.
* Keep a list of your file folders; print file folder labels.
* Copy a single field and paste it to another field; or
copy all information for a person and paste it into
another application (such as Notepad, Write, MS Word, etc.).
* Filter your address book by category (based on their
category or any other criteria). You may specify wild
cards when filtering on this criteria.
* Keep a "To Do List" to help you get more organized.
* Create and memorize custom reports. You choose the fields
you wish to appear on the report, sort order, report
font size, and name of the new report. You can memorize
it for later use.
* Import names and address from other applications
* Export names and address from Address Database Professional
to other applications (for mail merge, etc.).
* Convert alphabetic phone numbers to numeric. For example,
it will convert 800-94steve to 800-947-8383.
* Customize the mailing labels to use any type of labels. You
simply tell Address Database Professional the characteristics
of your labels and it handles the rest.
* Automatically dial any of the numbers in your phone book
by simply clicking a button.
* Send Pragmatic Software suggestions for future releases.
* Access frequently used files by clicking on the file name
under the File Menu.
* Automatically retrieve any valid City, State and Zip Code
when a zip code is entered. This functionality can be
turned on or off at any time. Allows you to look up any
City, State and Zip Code. Allows you to add, change, and
delete the list of valid City, State and Zip Codes.
* Define 10 fields per file to be named anything you like.
Since you can define 10 per file, they can be different
for your Home vs. your Office files.
* Name the 4 phone fields anything you like. They can be
different for each file. For example, one file can have
phones of "Home", "Business", "Beeper" and "Car" while
another file can have phones of "Home", "Work", "Sky Pager",
and "Cellular". The 5th phone is always "Fax".
* Use long file names. For example, now you can name your
file "Business Contacts" rather than "BUSINESS.ADB".
* Use the database in any application that supports
Microsoft Access files.
* Sort mailing labels by person's name, city, state or
zip code. Sorting them by zip code will allow you to
obtain a postage discount.
* Enter non-USA phone numbers so that it may be used in
countries other than the United States.
* Print Preview for all reports, labels and envelopes

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.
DISCLAIMER - AGREEMENT
----------------------
Users of Address Database must accept this disclaimer of
warranty:
"Address Database is supplied as is. The author disclaims all
warranties, expressed or implied, including, without
limitation, the warranties of merchantability and of fitness
for any purpose. The author assumes no liability for
damages, direct or consequential, which may result from the
use of Address Database."
Address Database 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
Address Databaseand continue to use Address Database after a
reasonable trial period, you must make a registration payment
of $59.99 to Pragmatic Software Co. The
$59.99 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.
Commercial users of Address Database must register and pay for
their copies of Address Database within 30 days of first use
or their license is withdrawn. Site-License arrangements may
be made by contacting Pragmatic Software Co.
Anyone distributing Address Database for any kind of
remuneration must first contact Pragmatic Software Co. at the
address below for authorization. This authorization will be
automatically granted to distributors recognized by the (ASP)
as adhering to its guidelines for shareware distributors, and
such distributors may begin offering Address Database
immediately (However Pragmatic Software Co. must still be
advised so that the distributor can be kept up-to-date with the
latest version of Address Database).
You are encouraged to pass a copy of Address Database 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 a copy of the latest version of the Address
Database system, an electronic User's Guide, and
free phone support for a year.
OMBUDSMAN STATEMENT
-------------------
This program is produced by a member of the Association of
Shareware Professionals (ASP). 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 the
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 members' products.
Please write to the ASP Ombudsman at 545 Grover Road, Muskegon,
MI 49442-9427 USA, Fax 616-788-2765 or send a CompuServe
message via CompuServe Mail to ASP Ombudsman 70007,3536.
