If you are bringing forms in from Word Perfect or Word Star or any other word processor, you must first convert the form into an ASCII format.

If you are printing this letter out to a file for the purposes of importing into another word processor, or plan to use the DOS Type command to view the letter, then this is the selection you need to make. The ASCII format will put a carriage return and line feed at the end of each line. BIZ Format = If you are printing this letter out for the purpose of importing it back into another letter in the Biz*Base program, and want to save all the added characteristics of the program such as Bold, Underscore, Italics, etc. then this is the choice you need to make. This format will leave in all soft carriage returns making the form automatically reformat. If you use Word*Star or Sidekick this format will work well. If your using Word Perfect you can save the text in this format and then convert it using Word Perfects conversion routine. This will keep the paragraphs together for easier formatting when importing the forms. Word Perfect and Word Star are popular word processing programs. [End] (R) disk full disk full .NTX .T. .F.

The screen is laid out to show you a complete overview of your Contact Record in a clear and concise format. Basic commands are located at the bottom of the screen. Press CTRL F1 to list additional commands. ÍÍÍÍ Expanded Help ÍÍÍÍ This screen has too many features and variables to be listed in a help screen, but a brief description of most will be covered. The Updated field in the upper left corner will tell you the last date that this record was edited or added. Whatever field the arrow is pointing to is the head field in the current index order (if there is no arrow, then the index order is a user defined index). At the bottom of this screen are listed the commands available. To list additional commands press CTRL F1. The commands and their functions are listed below: ADD = Adds a new record. COPY = Makes a copy of the record that you are currently on. This is helpful for making new records that are almost an identical copy of an existing record. DELETE = Erases the record you are on. EDIT = Makes changes to the record that you are on. FIND = Enables you to instantly find a record by the indexes you have set up (the program comes with predefinded indexes also). The index you use to Find with is used in other commands on this screen - List, Next and Previous. GROUP = Groups are different classifications that you may enter records into. With the Group command you may define a group and then marked records in that group. LIST = Presents a list of records in the order in which you last searched for them. For example: if you use the FIND command and search by Last Name and then use List, the records will appear in alphanumeric order indexed on Last name. MEMO = The memo field is used to input any random notes you need. The bottom fourth of the screen contains a record's memo field. NEXT = Shows you the next record in the database. The sequence of presentation is controlled by the FIND Command. If you select FIND and search by Last, subsequent records will appear alphanumerically by Last. PREVIOUS = Shows you the previous record in the database. This is like moving back one record. The sequence of presentation is controlled by the FIND Command. See the Next command for details. QUERY = Allows you to filter or restrict your database so that only select records that have similar characteristics are shown. You may search for contacts by any combination of character- istics that you need. RECALLS = Shows you a list of your recalls and follow ups. Similar to the opening screen. STATS = Toggles the lower right section of the screen to show or not to show reminders that this record has additional information in other menus. This other information is: F4 N-Foll = Shows the date of your next correspondence Follow up. ^F7 L-Call = Shows the date of your Last Call. ^F7 L-Expn = Shows the date of your Last Expense. ^F4 N-Invc = Shows the due date of the next invoice. TAG = Allows you to "Mark" a record. It is useful when you are in the middle of filtering your database and then suddenly have to leave. All you would do is Tag the record you are on. Later you may Find the Tagged record with the Find command regardless of how long it has been Tagged. Tag also allows you to save a Query if you are in one. VIEWS = Will flip the middle folders of the screen to show you either File Folders D, E, and F or G, H, and I. Function Key Commands: Press CTRL F1 while at a record screen.

Many other screens in Biz*Base also contain a memo or comment field. Enter whatever comments you want into the box below. Press F10 to save. ÍÍÍÍ Expanded Help ÍÍÍÍ Each record in Biz*Base has a memo pad that may contain 20+ pages of comments depending on your available memory. The Biz*Base memo pad may be searched on during a Query. Therefore it is a good idea to create some standard words or phrases that may be used as the criteria to be searched upon. While editing a memo there are a few commands that may be used to make typing memos easier. They are as follows: ALT N = Press this to bring the current record's name and address information into the memo pad. ALT S = Press this to toggle the memo pad size between small and large size. This is useful for full screen viewing of the memo pad. ALT T = Press to automatically have the time and date stamped into your memo. You should make a habit of automatically doing this as it will become useful to know when the memos where written. F5 = Press to create a look up table. It is a good idea to store common comments in the look up table so that information that you may want to Query on will always be spelled the same. F9 = To print your memos. Only previously saved memos will be printed. F10 = Save your changes ESC = Abandon your changes. [End] (R) disk full disk full .NTX .T. .F.

(3+4)*5 = 35 3+(4*5) = 23 The breakdown: 3+4 = 7 | 4*5 = 20 *5 | + 3 ---- ---- 35 23 The Query function in Biz*Base works the same way.

The field you have picked should appear in the upper left of the Query menu. The conditional operators are listed on the left. ÍÍÍÍ Expanded Help ÍÍÍÍ In order to make your Query work right you must figure out how to restrict access to only those records that match your Query. Before you select a conditional operator imagine that the word IS or DOES appears after your field. Example: COMPANY "IS" or COMPANY "DOES". Now you need to determine what the COMPANY "IS", or what the COMPANY "DOES". Does it contain something, is it greater than the letter J, is the field empty, does it start with Jones. The operators are listed in detail below, select the appropriate one. After the operator is selected you will be given another menu were you can tell the Query what you are searching for in the field chosen. Exact [ = ] Equal To. Qualifying records must exactly meet the criteria that you will specify in the next menu. This feature is not available with character fields, use contains instead. GT [ > ] Greater than. Qualifying records must be greater than the criteria that you will specify in the next menu. LT [ < ] Less than. Qualifying records must be less than the criteria that you will specify in the next menu. GE [ >= ] Equal to or Greater than. Qualifying records must be equal to or greater than the criteria that you will specify in the next menu. LE [ <= ] Equal to or Less than. Qualifying records must be equal to or less than the criteria that you will specify in the next menu. BETWEEN Qualifying records must be greater than or equal to a lower limit that you will specify and less than or equal to an upper limit that you will specify in the next menu. STARTS WITH Qualifying records must begin with the characters that you will specify in the next menu. This feature is functional only on character fields and the comment field. CONTAINS Qualifying records must contain the word or phrase that you will specify in the next menu. This feature is particularly useful when dealing with the memo field. This feature is functional only on character fields or the comment field. NOT CONTAIN Qualifying records must not contain the word or phrase that you will specify in the next menu. This feature is functional only on character fields or the comment field. SIMILAR TO Qualifying records are similar to the word of phrase that you will specify in the next menu. For example, assuming that you are looking for the store Stile Graphics and you don't know how to spell it. By specifying "Style Graphics", Biz*Base will then come up with the correct company(s). This feature is functional only with character fields or the comment field. EMPTY or 0 Qualifying fields contain no informa- tion. An empty numeric field contains a zero (0) and an empty character field or date field contains only spaces. An empty Logical field contains a "N" or "F" for No or False.

The look up language will support the use of macros, expressions, boolean logicals and begin or end statements. ÍÍÍÍ Expanded Help ÍÍÍÍÍ You may append information into the current field from any existing Biz*Base field by placing the name of the field into the lookup table surrounded by ® ¯. The characters are created by holding down the ALT key and pressing 174 or 175 on the numeric key pad. So if you wanted to stick information from the field COMPANY you would write ®COMPANY¯. You can perform math using two date fields or two numeric fields. Such as ®NUMB2 - NUMB1¯. The look up table will begin translating information from the beginning of a line unless it sees a [. [ tells Biz*Base to start inputing after the marker. Also if Biz*Base see's a ] it will stop entering information. This means you can comment your look ups without worrying about the comments showing up in your field info. All valid functions and advanced commands are acceptable in the lookup table. If the look up table sees a semicolor ( ; ) it enters a carriage return in its' place. So if you wanted to fill in the city, state and zip with one statements you can. The following is an example for a look up on the city field. San Diego;CA92075;; This would enter San Diego then press the enter key, enter CA (since CA fills in the field you don't have to press Enter, then fill in the zip code then skip the country field and move to the next screen to wait for you to catch up. If you are in another database (e.g. invoicer) then to automatically bring in fields from the record screen, you must include the word bizbase and this arrow -> in your macro. Examples: ®bizbase->char1¯ ®bizbase->numb1 * bizbase->numb2¯ ®bizbase->company¯ [End] (R) disk full disk full .NTX .T. .F.

If you just printed a letter, the dates will default for you as well as the letter name ÍÍÍÍ Expanded Help ÍÍÍÍ There are four basic fields that make up the correspondence record they are: Follow up Date: This is the date you want the program to remind you to contact the client about whatever correspondence you sent them. Biz*Base will sort the records chronologically by this date showing you the most recent follow up first. You can view these records from this screen, on the opening menu or by pressing function key F8 from the client record screen. To change the follow up date you can just type in a valid date use the Function Key F5 Look up tables to enter dates or from the previous screen, the correspondence listing screen hit Function Key F5 and set the recall date from the Tickler menu. If you don't want to follow up on the correspondence either don't enter a date in the follow up field or if there is one erase it by holding down the Ctrl Key and pressing the letter Y (Ctrl-Y) or by pressing the delete key to remove the first to numbers and then press enter. Since the program won't let you enter an incorrect date it will erase the date completely. Mailer Sent: This should be a 8 letter/number name that allows you to group correspondence. The Function Key F5 look up tables work great here. It is important that you use the same name for mass mailings on projects. If you use the same name here you can come back later and get a printout of every client who received a package on a certain project. This field should always be filled in. If you have just come from printing a single form letter the program will automatically put the name of the letter here you are free to change it. To delete the line press Ctrl-Y. Date Sent: This is a historical field to track the exact date you sent the listed correspondence to this client. This field should always be filled in. Response: After you have sent a mailing and you are following up the is a good place to put a one line response. You should also go back up to the follow up date at this point and delete it so the program won't remind you to follow up again. The look up table [F5] is very good for this and there are some examples of it in the program. To view them first clear this help screen by pressing ESC. Then move to the response field by pressing Enter while your in the field press function key F5 and you can view some of the macros we created for you. Saving Correspondence Records: To save the record just press Function Key F10. [End] (R) disk full disk full .NTX .T. .F.

Minutes = Enter the amount of time that the call took. Hr/Rate = This represents the hourly billing rate (if you don't charge for your time, then enter a zero). This will default to what you have entered in setup. It may be changed to any number. Charge = This is the charge of the call. Charge is figured by: (Hr/Rate)/60 * minutes. --- Mileage --- Beg Od = Mileage Odometer before driving. You may change this in Setup. End Od = Mileage Odometer after driving. Miles = End Od minus Beg Od to equal miles driven. Charge = Miles * mileage rate that is set in Setup. --- Expenses --- Type = Type of expense (Lunch, Petty Cash, etc.) Where = Where the expense was created. Payment = How was the expense paid for.

People get confused by these fields because they don't understand them. To decide if your information should be in a logical field ask the simple question is the answer always Yes or No. For instance you want to track if the client is a HOT prospect. Either s/he is or s/he isn't. You create a logical field called HOT. Each time a client is a "HOT" prospect you mark yes in this field. Each time you want your "HOT" prospects you can set a filter for HOT=Yes and you will only see "HOT" prospects. Your screen will also alert you that this is a HOT prospect because if the field is marked Yes the word HOT will show up on the screen. If the prospect is not marked Yes nothing will show up on the screen. You can also use these fields if there are only two answers to a question. For instance is the client Male or Female . You could name the logical field Female. If the client was Female you would mark it true otherwise you would leave it false. If the client were female it would show on your screen, if they were male nothing would show. You could now also sort for all Female clients by specifying Female=Yes or for Males by specifying Female=No. These fields like all the fields in Biz*Base can be used in forms also. You can have the letter sent to just Females or Males and even have the letter insert the word Female or Male in your letter at the write place depending on the answer to the logical field. Don't bypass these fields they are very powerful. ÍÍÍ Changing the Names of the fields ÍÍÍ To change the names of the fields you must first move to the opening client screen.

If you would like to print with italics, bold, have margins at the top of a page, ect. then this is where you would do that. You may press the F5 key for a look up table of ESCape codes. ÍÍÍÍ Expanded Help ÍÍÍÍ When you send instructions to your printer, these instructions are called Fonts. Fonts are coded differently for every brand of printer. If you would like to send some of these fonts to your printer to do such things as reduce print size, print in italics, etc. then refer to your printer manu l and view the section on setting up fonts. Your manual will show you some code that looks like a foreign language. Enter this code in the Setup String. To reset your printer back to normal enter a reset code in the Reset String. Your setup codes will sometimes need an escape code. The Biz*Base program uses chr(27) for it's escape code. Everything else must be enclosed with "quotes". Below are examples of HP Laser jet series font codes you will find more in the F5 (look up) key table and you can add your own there. Landscape :chr(27)+"&l1O" the chr(27) is the escape code followed by a plus sign. The rest of the code is enclosed by quotes. Bold :chr(27)+"(s3B" Top Margin :chr(27)+"&l20E" the 20 may be changed to whatever you wish the top margin to be. Reset :chr(27)+"E" this will reset your printer back to normal.

The look up language will support the use of macros, expressions, boolean logicals and begin or end statements. ÍÍÍÍ Expanded Help ÍÍÍÍÍ You may append information into the current field from any existing Biz*Base field by placing the name of the field into the lookup table surrounded by ® ¯. The characters are created by holding down the ALT key and pressing 174 or 175 on the numeric key pad. So if you wanted to stick information from the field COMPANY you would write ®COMPANY¯. You can perform math using two date fields or two numeric fields. Such as ®NUMB2 - NUMB1¯. The look up table will begin translating information from the beginning of a line unless it sees a [. [ tells Biz*Base to start inputing after the marker. Also if Biz*Base see's a ] it will stop entering information. This means you can comment your look ups without worrying about the comments showing up in your field info. All valid functions and advanced commands are acceptable in the lookup table. If the look up table sees a semicolor ( ; ) it enters a carriage return in its' place. So if you wanted to fill in the city, state and zip with one statements you can. The following is an example for a look up on the city field. San Diego;CA92075;; This would enter San Diego then press the enter key, enter CA (since CA fills in the field you don't have to press Enter, then fill in the zip code then skip the country field and move to the next screen to wait for you to catch up.

If you would like to print with italics, bold, have margins at the top of a page, ect. then this is where you would do that. You may press the F5 key for a look up table of ESCape codes. ÍÍÍÍ Expanded Help ÍÍÍÍ When you send instructions to your printer, these instructions are called Fonts. Fonts are coded differently for every brand of printer. If you would like to send some of these fonts to your printer to do such things as reduce print size, print in italics, etc. then refer to your printer manual and view the section on setting up fonts. Your manual will show you some code that looks like a foreign language. Enter this code in the Setup String. To reset your printer back to normal enter a reset code in the Reset String. Your setup codes will sometimes need an escape code. The Biz*Base program uses chr(27) for it's escape code. Everything else must be enclose with "quotes". Below are examples of HP Laserjet series font codes you will find more in the F5 (look up) key table and you can add your own there.: Landscape :chr(27)+"&l1O" the chr(27) is the escape code followed by a plus sign.

After the recall is set, you will be allowed to enter a small reminder of why you are setting this recall date, along with the small reminder the date of the last call made to this client will be displayed. ÍÍÍÍ Expanded Help ÍÍÍÍ Recalls may be used in a number of ways, but the most obvious reason to set recalls is to remind you who and when to call. Once recalls are set, they will appear on the Opening Screen. Recalls are record specific, anotherwords each record may only contain one recall and when a recall is set it pertains only to the record you are currently on. To set a recall simply press the first letter of the choice you wish to select and press [enter]. The functions of each choice are listed below. Enter = Enter the exact date and time of the recall. Clear = Clear any recall that has been set for this record. Minutes = Set a recall today in xx minutes from now. Hours = Set a recall today in xx hours from now. Days = Set a recall in xx days from now at 8:00am Weeks = Set a recall in xx weeks from now at 8:00am Months = Set a recall in xx months from now at 8:00am Years = Set a recall in xx years from now at 8:00am Once a recall is entered, a menu will appear informing you of the date of the last call made to this record as well as a small area to enter the reason for the next call.

The Gateway puts you on "hold" while you use a spreadsheet, word processor, database or other program. When finished using the other software you are returned to Biz*Base. This menu is where you set up Biz*Base to give you that capability. Once set up the CTRL F10 key accesses the DOS Gateway Menu. ÍÍÍÍ Expanded Help ÍÍÍÍ Many times while inside of Biz*Base you will need to load another program or access a DOS prompt. Instead of exiting Biz*Base, loading the other software, and then reloading Biz*Base, all you need to do is enter those other programs into this DOS Gateway Setup Menu. Once they are entered you never have to return to this menu. You can Setup to 10 programs in this menu, you may set up 5 programs per screen (press pgdn to access the other 5) and then you may set up the DOS Shell (by pressing pgdn once more). Below are instructions on how to set up this Gateway. Menu Item: Type the name of the program that you wish to execute. (e.g. WordStar). Note that Anything may be typed in this line. It is here for you to enter a description of the program to execute. Drive/Dir.: Type the drive letter, followed by a backslash (\) and the directory that contains the program. (e.g., c:\ws) Command: Type the command that executes the program. (e.g., ws) The command entered here must be the same one you use to access the program while in DOS. Parameters: If you need to pass any parameters to the program that will be loaded. For instance in a word processing package, many times you may type the name of the program followed by the letter you wish to load (e.g. ws test.txt). The "test.txt" would be entered into this section of the menu. MEMORY SWAP: Since Biz*Base requires 512,000 (512K) bytes of memory to function, some of this memory must be temporarily released so your other program may be executed. Drive: When Biz*Base swaps memory with your other program it is actually taking Biz*Base out of RAM memory, writing it down to the hard disk, loading your other program into the now available RAM memory, then upon exiting your other program taking Biz*Base memory off the hard disk and loading it back into RAM memory. Therefore you need to tell this Setup Menu which hard disk to write Biz*Base RAM memory to. If you a have RAM disk setup in your config.sys file with your extended memory, this may be used as the hard disk you enter here. Mem(K): After designating the drive you must tell the Setup Menu how much of Biz*Base to take out of memory. The less memory you release the quicker the whole process will be. To determine how much memory to release you need to know how much memory the other software requires. Setting the number here to 0 defaults to releasing all available memory (i.e. 640k). Below are some sample settings for different programs. They are only samples and don't mean these programs require the memory allocated. Lotus 123 = 0 [Depending on the size of your spreadsheet, this could be less] dBase III = 400 [A good number for standard dBase III routines] WordStar = 500 [If you are writing a very long document, you might want more] Keep in mind that the less memory you free up, the faster the swap will be. DOS Shell Memory Swap: There is one last Setup that has to be done. and that is the DOS Shell Memory Swap. This will not bring up any program, but will "hold" Biz*Base while you are brought to a DOS prompt. Depending on your needs the memory you set here is entirely up to you. We suggest that you set it to 150K. [End] (R) disk full disk full .NTX .T. .F.

If you cannot get your modem to auto dial then refer to you modem manual for details on the settings. ÍÍÍÍ Expanded Help ÍÍÍÍ BAUD RATE = Even if your modem supports higher Baud Rates you must select one of the three for Biz*Base (e.g. 300,1200,2400) PARITY = The Parity Bit is used for error checking in file transmission. Refer to your modem manual to determine what to set here. Unless stated otherwise Parity should be set to None DATA BITS = 95% of modems will use 8 Data Bits. Your modem manual should tell you what to set. If it doesn't just assume 8 data bits. If 8 data bits are used, then Parity should be set to None. STOP BITS = 95% of modems will use 1 stop bit. Leave this value at one unless your modem manual specifies otherwise. DIAL TONE/PULSE = If your phone is touch tone then select T, if it is pulse then select P. MODEM PORT = You must determine what COM port your modem is attached to. If you have a mouse in your system then your modem is probably attached to COM2, otherwise it is most likely attached to COM1. Biz*Base will not support modems attached to COM3 or COM4. MODEM INITIALIZATION = A standard Initialization string that will get your modem to dial out with Biz*Base would be: ATZ S11=50 If this doesn't work, then refer to your modem manual and enter an appropriate string. AREA CODE = Enter your local area code here. This will automatic- ally be eliminated when you auto dial a local number. OUTSIDE LOCAL DIAL SEQUENCE = If your phone system requires you to dial a # to access outside lines then enter that number here (e.g. 9). A coma may be entered as a one second delay.

The Utilities listed in the menu are important features to help keep your Biz*Base program running smoothly. ÍÍÍÍ Expanded Help ÍÍÍÍ Listed below are the menu selections and their meanings. A) Rebuild Databases = To keep your Biz*Base program running properly, IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU REBUILD YOUR DATABASES FREQUENTLY!! After you do extensive adding or deleting of records is when it is most important to run this feature. This feature Indexes your files so that they may be found quickly and compacts your files to conserve hard disk space. B) DOS Gateway Set Up = Allows you to access others programs while you are still in Biz*Base. C) Import/Export/Create Databases = Allows you to import your old databases into Biz*Base, export information out of Biz*Base, redesign your Biz*Base database fields, create additional databases, or check for duplicates. D) User Defined Index = Allows you to create your own indexes to allow for instant finds of your data. For example, if you needed to index all of your files by a certain field, this feature gives you that capability. When you have many records in your database, searching for a particular record based on an established index greatly reduces the amount of time the computer needs to find it. E) Global Replace/Delete = Allows you to change specific field(s) in ALL or some of your Biz*Base records without having to edit each record individually or allows you to delete all or nearly all records in your database. F) Program Defaults = Allows you to define setup information for items such as Modem, Scheduled Follow Up Dates, your Signature on letters, Passwords, etc. G) Inventory Items = Allows you to add inventory items for use with the invoice module. H) Import Biz Letters = Allows you to easily import the Biz*Letter Library that is available separately. To purchase the Biz*Letter Library of over 400 letters, call Biz*Base (619) 792-1367.

When you tag a record the program will first search to see if any other tag exists. If it does the program will warn you that there is a tag currently set and if you set a new tag you will loose the other one. ÍÍÍÍ Expanded Help ÍÍÍÍ Tagging a record not only records the actual record you are on but also any query that is set and the current index order. A couple of uses might be: Your doing some work on a particular client and you have to go to another spot in the database but you want to come right back to this record. Just press T for Tag then move to the around and do other things. When you are ready to return choose the FIND command from the bottom of the Record Screen and select Tagged Record. Another use is found when calling clients in your database with a query set. Let's say you set a query for Companies with 50 employees or more in San Diego. Your intention is to call each one individually so you go to the beginning of the database and call the first client. After finishing with the client you press next and Biz*Base moves to the next client fitting your query. After an hour you decide to do something else and continue the calling later. Just tag the next record in you query and when you come back later or even if it's not the same day you can FIND by TAGGED Record and the program will put on the next call, with the same query and in the same index order. You must be sure if you quit the program to save your tag (you will be prompted to do so). [End] (R) disk full disk full .NTX .T. .F.
