- GENERAL NOTES
- =============
-
- "WhereIsIt? Lite" is a free catalog browser for files, created with
- WhereIsIt? cataloguing program. The Lite version is a minimized version
- without any capabilities to change catalog data while still retaining full
- browsing support, including powerful searching and report generator with
- print preview. WhereIsIt? Lite does not impose any limititations found in
- the shareware version, such as number of opened catalogs at once. If you
- are a user of standard WhereIsIt? program, you can use the Lite version as
- a companion program to your give-away catalogs, enabling your clients
- browsing catalogs without having to order the full version of WhereIsIt?.
- Note that Lite version is a browser only, and it does not contain any
- functionality that would allow users to create or modify catalogs in any
- way.
-
- "WhereIsIt? standard" is a shareware software, priced at $39.95 USD. This
- software has all the capabilities of the Lite version, plus many additional
- functions that allow you to create and maintain your own catalogs. The
- evaluation version and other information are available for download from
- program's homepage (http://www.whereisit-soft.com).

- including ZIP, ARJ, RAR, LHA/LZH, ARC, GZIP, self-extract, and more!

- find your items by name or description, or start up the Advanced Search with
- Search Expression Editor, allowing you to write complex search queries using
- full set of available search criteria and Boolean logic operators.
- Searching for duplicate items is there, too, as well as analyzing how data
- has changed since last cataloging, or checking if older or newer versions of
- files are present somewhere in the catalog.
-
- Report generator with print preview for summarizing your catalogs
- -----------------------------------------------------------------
- Adjustable and powerful report generator adds a final professional touch to
- your catalog collection. Export your data to ASCII file, Excel table, rich-
