- echo HOW TO LOAD BANK-PLAN
- echo =====================
- echo.
- echo This three-page note explains how to load BANK-PLAN.
- echo.
- echo. The correct syntax for loading BANK-PLAN is as follows:
- echo.
- echo BP▒{path}filename
- echo.
- echo '▒' indicates a single blank space to be entered immediately after BP.
- echo.
- echo '{path}' If all BANK-PLAN's files reside on the same disk/directory,
- echo you do not need to specify any path.
- echo.
- echo 'filename' refers to a file containing a set of BANK-PLAN assumptions.
- echo Whenever a new set of assumptions are saved by BANK-PLAN, you
- echo give these a new file name (maximum of 8 characters). A file
- echo extension (.ASS) will be automatically added to this name.
- echo.
- pause
- echo.
- echo (2 of 3)
- echo.
- echo. If, in the future, you can't remember the name of a particular file,
- echo type "BP▒X", press RETURN to skip the 'File does not exist' message
- echo and then use the cursor keys to select the required file from the
- echo displayed list.
- echo.
- echo To create a completely new set of projections, you must:
- echo.
- echo - Load an existing set (preferably one already set up with
- echo appropriate printer strings etc.);
- echo.
- echo - Remove its existing assumptions (using the Remove option
- echo within the Initialise submenu);
- echo.
- echo - Save this 'empty' model with a new name.
- echo.
- echo You can then proceed to enter basic data, assumptions etc. If you
- echo regularly build 'new' models, you could retain a copy of the
- echo 'empty' model for future use.
- echo.
- pause
- echo.
- echo (3 of 3)
- echo.
- echo If you are using a Hercules monitor, you should run the supplied
- echo program, MSHERC, immediately before loading BANK-PLAN.
- echo.
- echo If you intend to print any of BANK-PLAN's graphs using the DOS
- echo Graphics utility, you should run it before loading BANK-PLAN.
- echo Refer to the DOS Manual for details of the options available
- echo with Graphics.
- echo.
- echo If you wish, you can run BANK-PLAN as a DOS program within Windows.
- echo.
- echo BANK-PLAN has been supplied with a set of specimen assumptions
- echo contained in a file called MASTER.ASS. To load this file, enter
- echo the following command line at the DOS prompt (e.g. C:\BANK):
- echo.
- echo BP▒MASTER (▒ signifies a blank space)
- echo.
- echo Good luck with BANK-PLAN and with your cashflows !
