This disk contains various example files to use with dBase III
and Lotus 1-2-3. To use the dBase files, copy the .DBF, .LBL,
.FRM, and .PRG files to the directory on your hard disk where you
keep your dBase files. Then type:
DO EXAMP1 to run example 1.
DO EXAMP2 to run example 2.
DO EXAMP3 to run example 3.
DO EXAMP4 to run example 4.
DO EXAMP5 to run example 5.
To examine the label programs, run dBase and then type:
MODI LABEL EXAMP1
MODI LABEL EXAMP2
MODI LABEL EXAMP5
To examine the form program, run dBase and then type:
MODI FORM EXAMP3
Use the Multi-Chapter copy option in Ventura Publisher to copy
the CHP and associated files from your floppy disk to the
directory on your hard disk where you keep your dBase files. No
width table is provided. Therefore, during the copy process, you
may receive an alert stating that the width table cannot be
found. SKIP through this alert. Ventura Publisher will
automatically use the OUTPUT.WID file in your VENTURA directory.
Several of the examples are provided with alternative style
sheets. These style sheets have names like EXAMP1A.STY or
EXAMP5B.STY. Copy these files from the distribution floppy disk
to the directory specified for the style sheets in the Multi-
Chapter copy operation.
