CardConv Ver 1.0 (c) 1990 by Robert Schoettl CardConv is a small file coverter which brings Card-Data from MS-WINDOWS CARD.EXE program into ASCII format, readable with common database or wordprocessing programs. _CardConv_Syntax_ CARDCONV cardfile.CRD newfile.ext delimiter [/I][/E][/C] cardfile WINDOWS cardfile with extension newfile holds converted data delimiter field delimiter (up to 3 characters long) * [/I] include card-index line as record content * [/E] output only card-index line * [/C] convert German special characters () * These parameters are optional and can be mixed in any order. _CardConv_Operation_ The main purpose for creating CardConv was to get collected addresses from the Windows CARD-Program into a mailmerge-format for MS-WORD. Each cardfile entry is seen as one record and ends with a CRLF. Each line within a cardfile entry is separated by a given delimiter. (MS-WORD for example uses the ';'-character). And that's all it does! You can use CardConv only with files which contain pure text-records. If you use it with card files which contain graphic informations you will get garbage-results.
