A complete general information Storage and Retrieval System with exclusive X-SEARCH, X-SORT and X-CHART features.
At a Glance:
This System includes:
- A Menu-driven program that lets you store information on a wide variety of subjects- anything from general name and address lists to research data. This program also calculates and stores corresponding numerical data.
- A program which can be used by itself (stand-alone), or interfaced with Timeworks Word Writer, enabling you to maintain and print out name and address lists, create individualized form letters, and produce customized reports up to 20 columns wide.
- Full Prompting- You will be guided through this program by thoughtful and easily-understood instructions (prompts) from your computer display screen.
- Password Protection, to prevent unauthorized access to your confidential data.
- A special Backup feature, which quickly generates extra backup copies of your recorded information to guard against the loss of important data.
- A Manual written in easy-to-understand, people-friendly English, abundantly illustrated to make it even clearer and eliminate any guesswork.
