  10. DISAN is a GW-BASIC programmer's answer to random access.  No block     
  11. numbers to translate.  No hashing formulas.  Just pass the character key
  12. of the record and let DISAM do the work.  A resident file handler, DISAM
  13. handles variable length records up to 255 bytes.  Easy as:              
  14. Open,filename; Get,Jim Jones; Close;.                                   
  15.                                                                         
  16. You can open up to five DISAM files at one time.  Assembler programs    
  17. with record lengths in excess of 8K can also use DISAM.  With loads of  
  18. documentation, DISAM includes test files and a test program with        
  19. structured BASIC source code.  DISAM accesses records by assigned       
  20. character key and will read records sequentially in ascending key order.
