Heavy Cat Multimedia
Sounddex
Windows version 1.0
Thank you for your interest in Sounddex.
This text file contains information on how to install
Sounddex, troubleshooting, registration and license
information.
Sounddex is a fully-functional, shareware file organization program
which offers a central index to every Windows-compatible sound data
(.wav) file on a computer system.
Sounddex keeps track of every file's location in the system with
a record of the 'path' or drive, directory and file information
of every file added to Sounddex. A label and comments about
each file may also be included.
Sounddex uses a Microsoft Access-compatible database to record
information about each file. The database is contained in the
wavdata.mdb and wavdata.ldb files in the 'multidex' directory.
Sounddex is shareware and may be freely distributed, provided all
the original files are included, including this file.
