Please ensure that an old copy of T&C is NOT running already on your machine,
before you run INSTALL.EXE - As a precaution, it is always recommended that
you perform a backup of your data prior to installing an update.
T&C updates are designed to be installed in the same subdirectory as
the old version. Data Files will be maintained. If conversion is
required, it will be automatic upon the initial startup. Previous
security codes from v4.x will be automatically maintained. If you
have registered a v4.x product, this is a no charge update.
v4.07 NEW FEATURES LIST
New Store and Forward Database for Calendar set transfers.
Program Location can be either on the local hard disk or on the
server Data Files for a workgroup MUST all be on the same drive.
For Example
F:\CHAOS
F:\CHAOS\MIKE
F:\CHAOS\DAVID
F:\CHAOS\RON
Time & Chaos will automatically place a NODE database in the
F:\CHAOS subdirectory to manage the workgroup users 1 level below
itself.
As with previous versions of Time & Chaos the WORKING DIRECTORY
PARAMETER steers the application to the users default subdirectory.
To get your original data into the new directory you can 1) Restore
from a backup diskette or 2) If you can see the old sub-directory
on a network you can do a File|Restore or 3) You can copy *.is? files
plus category.lst to the new sub-directory.
Once a calendar set has been run for 1 minute, it is automatically
registered in the NODE database. Or...if you are in a hurry you can
click on the Check Now button.
Send appointments, todos, and phonebook records between calendar sets
You can click on the MAIN SCREEN MONTHLY CALENDAR's Grey Background
