                      REMENU - Version 1.12


MODIFYING THE ENVIRONMENT:
--------------------------
The  'REMINDERS' application program may require  more  intensive 
disk utilization than other programs you are currently using. DOS 
permits you to alter the environment to facilitate this intensive 
disk utilization.

It is recommended that you create a CONFIG.SYS file (if the  file 
is   not  there  already)  which  contains  the   following   two 
statements.

       FILES=20
       BUFFERS=8

DOS  looks  for  the CONFIG.SYS file each time  the  computer  is 
turned  on  (or  "re-booted").   When  the  file  is  found,  the 
operating  system  alters the environment  corresponding  to  the 
contents of the file.

To print the 'REMENU.DOC' file enter the following commands:

             COPY A:REMENU.DOC PRN <enter>

                ********************************
INSTALLING 'REMINDERS' ON SYSTEMS WITH A HARD DISK DRIVE:
--------------------------------------------------------
The diskette that your copy of 'REMINDERS' was distributed to you 
on  should  not be used for running of  'REMINDERS'.  You  should 
first  make  a  back-up copy of the distribution  disk  and  then 
install  'REMINDERS'  on  either your hard disk  or  floppy  disk 
system.

It  is  recommended  that you create a  sub-directory  that  will 
contain  the 'REMINDERS' program and distribution  master  files. 
The  following  DOS command will create  a  sub-directory  called 
'REMENU':

       C>MKDIR REMENU

Once  you  have created the sub-directory, select  the  new  sub-
directory by entering:

       C>CHDIR REMENU

Insert  the 'REMINDERS' distribution disk in drive 'A'  and  copy 
all of the files on this disk into your REMENU sub-directory with 
the following command:

                      C>COPY A:*.* <return>

INSTALLING 'REMINDERS' ON A DISKETTE
---------------------------------
The diskette that your copy of 'REMINDERS' was distributed to you 
on  should  not be used for running of  'REMINDERS'.  You  should 
first  make  a  back-up copy of the distribution  disk  and  then 
install  'REMINDERS'  on  either your hard disk  or  floppy  disk 
system.

In order to run 'REMINDERS' on a floppy disk system you will need 
two  disk drives. One drive to contain your program disk and  the 
other to contain your data files.

Insert the 'REMINDERS' distribution disk in drive 'A' and  select 
the 'A' drive by entering "A:" (return).

Insert  a blank formatted disk into drive 'B'. This is  the  disk 
that your working copy of 'REMINDERS' will be copied to.

Enter the following command:

                    A>COPY A:*.* B: <return>

Reboot  your  system  then   execute  REMENU.EXE   in  order   to 
initialize your system.

                     *** HIDDEN FEATURE ***

Your  'REMENU  -  Ver. 1.12' has the ability  to  accept  a  file 
generated  by another user of REMENU. With this feature  you  can 
generate say a special file that contains only the dates for your 
kids high school football or basketball games. You then can  pass 
a copy of this file to other user's of REMENU an by just  loading 
it  in to their computer it will be copied into their data  base. 
After  it has been copied it is deleted so that duplicate  copies 
of it will not be entered.

To create this 'HANDOUT.DBF' perform the following steps:

1.  Make a unique sub-director to hold a copy of your  REMENU.EXE 
program and copy it into this sub-directory.

2.  Make sure that the 'REMVBLS.MEM' file does not exist so  that 
when  you load REMENU it will initialize a new  database  without 
any entries in it.

3.  Load  REMENU and setup the date reminder's that you  wish  to 
pass along to others.

4.  After you have created these date reminder's exit REMENU  and 
rename MDREMDRS.DBF to HANDOUT.DBF.

5.  Copy only the HANDOUT.DBF file to as many blank disks as  you 
wish  to distribute. Instruct the individuals that receive  these 
disks  to copy the HANDOUT.DBF file into the  same  sub-directory 
that  hold  their copy of REMENU.EXE. Then next  time  they  load 
their  copy of REMENU.EXE it will look for this HANDOUT.DBF  file 
and  append  it  into their database. It will  then  delete  this 
HANDOUT.DBF file so that it will not duplicate this copy routine. 
They now have the date reminders in their database.

**  Note:  If  your  friends do not have  a  copy  of  REMENU.EXE 
(Reminders)  Version  1.12 let them have a copy of  yours.  While 
they  will be limited to the 50 entry limit until  they  register 
their  copy  they can still accept your  HANDOUT.DBF  files.  Who 
knows - maybe they will become a registered user. ***
