The author's instructions
An Agenda 2.0 setup string must be entered in decimal format, and each segment of the code must be separated by a backslash. Using the example above, the decimal equivalent for \027(s3B is: \027\040\115\051\066 All text following the marker will be printed in bold. To turn the bold type off, another marker must be added containing a reset setup string. The setup string to reset the text is \027(s0B; the decimal equivalent of this string is: \027\040\115\048\066. For more information on special markers, refer to the Agenda 2.0 User's Guide, pages 14-21 - 14-27. Q: Is it possible for two users to access the same Agenda database from a network drive A: Agenda 2.0 uses the Lotus File Reservation system. The first user to retrieve the database by default gets full read/write access i.e.: the 'Reservation'. Subsequent users who try to retrieve the same file get the following message: Can't get reservation, OK to continue Yes/No. If you choose Yes you will then be able to view the file and make changes but you will not be able to save the file under the same name. You will also have a [READ ONLY] indicator in the status panel. If the first user doesn't need to save the file they can release the File Reservation so that other users can get it. To release the reservation:- File Maintenance Reservation. You will get the following message:- "OK to Release the Reservation Yes/No". Select Yes. Now subsequent users who do want to edit and save the database can get the reservation. To get the reservation :- File Maintenance Reservation. You will get the following message:- "OK to Get the Reservation Yes/No". Select Yes. Q: Will Agenda 2.0 run in the Windows 3.0 environment? A: Agenda 2.0 was tested in the Windows 3.0 environment using the guidelines listed below. …
