New File

With this command you can create a new file which will enable you to have multiple telephone books.  For example:  Private, business, white pages, yellow pages, etc.Note:  The file extension should be .DBF.  If you omit the file extension, WinDial will add it to the file name.


Open File

Use this option to Open existing file.  File extension must be .DBF.


Import Data File
Import Data

This function allows you to import delimited ASCII files.  To begin, WinDial must know a few things about your delimited ASCII file.  The first it must know is which number field goes with last name, which number field goes with first name, etc.  Then it needs to know about end of field and quote characters.  The two most commonly used characters for this are quotation marks and commas.

Example: "Kenneth","Hatcher","Orange","Texas","555-5555"

                      1             2             3            4             5

Last name = 2

First Name = 1

Comapny =

Address =

City = 3

State = 4

Zip =

Phone = 5

As you can see, if you do not have an entry for one of WinDial's fields, leave the corresponding field blank.  It will then ask you for your file name.


Export Data File
Export Delimited ACSII Data

This function will allow you to export a delimited ASCII file.  All you must do is supply a file name.

Printer Setup

This function gives you access to the standard Windows printer setup dialog.  This is also available from the print menu.


Print

The print option gives you two choices:  "print all fields" and "print names and telephone numbers".  You will then be presented with the standard Windows print dialog and will  have the option to pick either all or selected.  If selected is chosen, only the current record will be printed.

Find Record stuff
Find

Generally, you start typing the name, starting with the last name and put a space between the last and first name and WinDial will find the matches as you type.  This is done at the main screen.

For an extensive search of all fields including notes, if desired, use the find function below.

This option will do a character by character search.  For example:  To find a record, you simply have to type a portion of any field of the record desired.  It will then find the first record that has the string matching the string you typed.  You have the option to turn on or off the case sensitivity and to include searching and notes attached to the records.

Note:  When flushing log, all log entries are removed.


Deleted Records
View Deleted Records

This will show all deleted records.  You then have the option to undelete any or all previously deleted records or you can permanently remove deleted records.  Note:  When removing deleted records, a complete pack and reindex of data files will occur and of course this is a time consuming process if you have many records.

What Do I Get
What do I get when I register

There are no limitations in this shareware release, but you may incounter a "nag" screen from time to time.  Upon registration the "nag" screen will be removed. The product will be registered in your name and you will receive the latest version.  It's a small price to pay for your peace of mind.  We will also keep you updated on future releases and of new products.


Shareware concept
The Shareware concept

Shareware is copyrighted software which is distributed by authors through bulletin boards, on-lineservices, disk vendors, and copies passed among friends. It is commercial software that you areallowed to try before you pay for it. This makes shareware the ultimate in money back guarantees. Most money back guarantees work like this: you pay for the product and then have some period of time to try it out and see whether or not you like it. If you don't like it or find that it doesn't dowhat you need, you return it and you get your money back. Some software companies won't even let you try their product, since  to qualify for a refund the diskette envelope must have an unbroken seal.

With shareware you get to try it for a reasonable limited time (like 30 days), without spending a penny. You are able to use the software on your own system(s), in your own special work environment with no sales people looking over your shoulder. If you decide not to continue using it, you throw it away and forget all about it. There is no paperwork, no phone calls, and no correspondence to waste your valuable time. You only pay for it if you continue to use it.

Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. Shareware is produced by accomplished programmers, just like retail software. There is good and bad shareware, just asthere is good and bad retail software. The primary difference between shareware and retail software is that with shareware you know if it's good or bad before you pay for it.

You benefit because you get to use the software to determine whether it meets your needs, before you pay for it.  Authors benefit because they are able to get their products into your hands without the expenses it takes to launch a traditional retail software product. There are many programs on the market today that would never have become available without the shareware marketing method.

The shareware system and the continued availability of quality shareware products depend on your willingness to register and pay for the shareware you use. It's the registration fees you pay which allow us to support and continue to develop our products. Please show your support for shareware by registering those programs you actually use and by passing them on to others.

Shareware is kept alive by your support!
