  137.       DAYO Index is a program designed to manage the indexing of the DAYO      
  138.   databases. It is multiuser when used on a PC based LAN/Network. It can,      
  139.   however be run (like all DAYO products), as a 'standalone' application. DAYO 
  140.   applications all have multiple indexes, and because it is recommended that   
  141.   they be reindexed at least once daily, DAYO Index was created to simplify    
  142.   this process.
