• TYME.COM → A:\SOFT programa de DOS 63.5 KB

No need to put TYME.HLP, TYME.DOC, TIMELBL.XXX, TIMECLI.XXX, README.TXT: they are manuals, source code or supporting material. Read them here and save 55.1 KB on a 1 MB disk.

1. Copy TYME.COM to A:\SOFT. They are DOS programs: run them from the DOS icon, or add A:\SOFT to the PATH in C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT to call them by name.

The setup screen allows you to change the initials of the user, thereby        ä
getting access to another set of time data.  Usually you will only use the     ä
default initials, but this is not required.  Use this screen to change them.   ä
It is useful to know that these initials are the file extension for all of     ä
a user's data files, including the client file (TIMECLI) and billing code file ä
(TIMELBL).  At the very least, you must have each of these two files with      ä
the proper initials for every user (dataset).  The program will die unless     ä
the TIMECLI.XXX and TIMELBL.XXX exist.                                         ä
The setup screen also allows you to make changes to the default date.  This is ä
the date where you will start entering data on the timetable function.         ä
Changing this is required only if you wish to add some time data to a month    ä
other than the current one.  But it may be convenient to change the date for   ä
other reasons.  After you have specified the desired date, you automatically   ä
return to the MAIN MENU.                                                       ä
The BANNER function will display the Banner Screen (briefly).                  à
This module calls a Phone list program which is not included in the demo.      å
This is the normal way to terminate the program and return to the DOS prompt.  ç
You should always quit the program using the EXIT command, because there are   ç
some files which may be corrupted if, for instance you were to re-boot the     ç
computer while the program is still running.  Normally, if the program is just ç
sitting there, the worst that could happen is that the data since your last    ç
EXIT is lost, but the best practice is to use the EXIT command.                ç
