INTRODUCTION

The Planned Maintenance System software has been designed for an 
efficient survey and maintenance record system. The software 
keeps track of the maintenance or surveys of any and every item 
or piece of machinery on board a ship, in a hospital, factory or 
any other place where maintenenace is required, while notifying 
when a particular item is due for survey or maintenance. The software 
also has extensive query facilities for searching for any particular 
group of items. This demonstration is fully functional except that 
it will not save any changes made to any file.
