o  Many more...


Usage Notes:
------------

o  Program & Resource take up 100k of disk space, and it also needs at least
   the same amount free as the size of your userlog.dat file so it can create
   the userlog.tmp file.

o  To tell the editor that a certain record is a user validation mask, go
   into that record by user number, and under misc. flags, click on the button
   to turn the Validation Mask bit on.  Version 1.00 and up will check for
   this flag so that you don't accidentally enter the wrong number (non-mask)

o  Fields copied by Validation Mask are:  Command level,time per day,
   time per call, download ratio, post limit, misc flags(auto email & stuff)
   survey flags, qscan flags, read flags, post flags, edit message flags,
   delete message flags, print message flags, access sig flags, validate
   files flags, edit desc flags, erase file flags, & qscan file flags.

o  You may 'Lock' the user record under the Misc Flags button.  Doing so
   will cause the 'Delete by Date' to skip that record and continue searching
   for Last Call dates to delete by.

o  Under 'Statistics' it will show the version as being 1.70.  Do not
   become alarmed!  Even though the old User Editer says it is 1.60, it is
   stored in the Userlog.dat file as 0011 Hex, which is 17 in decimal.
   (17/10=1.70)  I have confirmed this with Rich Sanchez (Express's Owner)
   and we have determined that 1.70 is the correct version number for the
   user database.

o  New Feature:  'Print Locked Users' prints out a short listing of users
   that are locked under misc. flags.
   
 
Improvements since 0.90:
------------------------

o  When program loads, a title screen is displayed. (suggested by R. Sanchez)

o  In the Edit by User List function, two buttons were added.  One to 
   go to the first user, and one to go to the last. (suggested by R. Sanchez)

o  Fixed bug in Slider Bar that caused it to move up when you were going
   down.

o  Fixed bug in Edit by User Number that would let you display user 0.
   (reported by R. Sanchez)

o  Properly checks for printer online.

o  Properly checks for disk space for the temp file. (R. Sanchez)

o  Added Mass flag on/off routine in the message & file areas...


Improvements Since 0.95:
------------------------

o  Displays a "Loading USERLOG.DAT" when loading, and a message
   when saving as well. (Suggested by R. Sanchez)

o  Fixed a bug in the Save routine...  After you saved, you couldn't go
   back and open a new database. (R. Sanchez)

o  Added "Locked User" feature under misc. flags... Toggle the flag on,
   and 'Delete by Date' will not attempt to delete that record, displaying
   a message to that effect too.

o  If there are no New User found under 'Edit/by New User Flag' a message
   is displayed stating so.  (Suggested by R. Sanchez)

o  'Edit User/From User List' now shows deleted users as << DELETED 
    RECORD >>.  (Suggested by R. Sanchez)

o  Edit by Data Search now implemented.

o  Convert Upper/Lower now implemented.

   (reported by James Armstrong)
