Be sure your PROGRAM disk is NOT write protected.  The options file will be
written at the same location as your programs.  The options file will contain
the drive letter or PATH for the location of your DATA files.


If you have a SINGLE DRIVE computer, be sure your data disk is in,
then push enter.


If you have a 2 DRIVE computer, be sure your data disk is
in the B: drive, then below type  B:  and push enter.


If you have a HARD DISK system, and you started this program from within
the subdirectory where you want the data files, just push enter.
If you want the data files in a different subdirectory, type it below.

Please read this screen since you are just starting.

Some people do not read all the documentation prior to running a program.
That's hard to believe isn't it?  Well, we all like to get "hands on"
experience.  Feel free to try out the program, but please do not put
in large amounts of data until you look over the documentation.  There is
a right way and a wrong way to ADD people.  Enter the names in normal order,
that is First Middle Last name.  Type in a date either as 050454 or 5/4/54
and it will convert to 04-MAY-1954.  (Read doc file for other date formats.)

There are short-cuts so that you will not have to type the same locations
over and over for different people.  There are some fields which print only on
certain reports so you may want to know that before deciding what to call each
field.  Some fields, such as Baptized and Other, can be changed for other uses
Well, thanks for reading at least this much before starting. Type the letter C
to continue.

Take time to do it right, and you won't have to take time to do it over.
Type what you are searching for in the appropriate fields.
UPPER CASE or lower case makes no difference in this search.
Leave a field blank if it does not matter what it contains.
Press F5 to change an & to an OR.
To find all the John Smiths, search for John  &  Smith.
To find all the Smiths or Smyths, search for Smith  OR  Smyth.
