- Welcome to HELPD v1.2 !
-
- HELPD is a pc-based program that allows you to centralize your
- critical help desk functions such as PC problem logging, user questions and
- answers, quick access to phone numbers of technical support staff and much
- more, all in a user-friendly environment.
-
- Version 1.2 allows the user to print out to a on-line printer, the
- PROBLEM.LOG file(option #7 of main menu) and also allows the user to append
- to the site's phone/contact list(PHONE.LST). There is now a new field called
- "TRACKING NUMBER", which you can use to maintain tracking records for each
- problem call, by giving each problem/user call a tracking number. This number
- can be tailored to your site's specific numbering system.
-
- This program (README.EXE) will create two data files that HELPD.EXE uses,
- called PHONE.LST and PROBLEM.LOG. These are the phone/contact list
- and the problem log(both user and pc combined) respectively.
-
- PLEASE BE SURE TO KEEP PROBLEM.LOG, PHONE.LST and HELPD.EXE ALL IN THE
- SAME DIRECTORY OR ON THE SAME DISK. DO NOT WRITE PROTECT THE DISK, IF THE
- THREE FILES ARE BEGIN KEPT ON FLOPPY DISK !
-
- Finally, one of the options that HELPD has, is to stay memory resident
- so that you can run DOS commands or other programs. When using this option,
- please be careful to return to the directory(or subdirectory) that the
- three files(HELPD.EXE, PHONE.LST and PROBLEM.LOG) reside. If HELPD does
- not find these files upon returning from DOS, then HELPD will terminate.
