Welcome to Ancestral Quest(tm) 2.0
To install the program:
If you obtained this program on a set of setup disks, run setup.exe
while in Windows.
If you downloaded this from a bulletin board, you will need to first
run the aq20demo.exe file that you downloaded. This will get the
files ready to run. You will then need to be able to run the
program.
If you are in Windows 95, you can just type "ancquest"
while in DOS, or click on 'ancquest.exe' from File Manager or
Explorer, or you can use Start-Run. You can also set up a shortcut
if you know how.
If you are in Windows 3.1x, you can click on 'ancquest.exe' from
the File Manager, or use File-Run to start it up. You can also set
up a new program item using the File-New menu if you know how.
This demo version is the same code as the commercial version, but will not
access some features. Certain features are not available at all:
Export
Blank Forms
Cascading Pedigree and Family Groups
Descendancy chart (Ancestry chart is quite similar in layout)
Individual Summary
Individual List sorted alphabetically
LDS missing individual ordinances report
Modified Register and Ahnentafel reports to File
LZW Compressed TIFF and GIF files. (You will probably not get
any GIF files to work until you buy the full version, and will
find that some .tif files will load while others will not -- the
full version should read in most of these.)
Other features are disabled if your database has grown too large for demo
purposes:
Add and Save individuals
Save marriages
All other printouts not listed above
Family Reunion Contact Lists
Backup
Import
Database Check/Fix
Merge
Save Multimedia Collections
To try this last set of features out, keep your database to less than 30
individuals (or create one by entering new data into a new database, or by
using GEDCOM in your existing program to create a subset of data, then
import this into Ancestral Quest).
If you already have a PAF database, use the open feature to locate it on
your disk, and open it. You'll love the new Windows interface (you may even
wonder if you're still looking at a PAF database-it will be much easier to
work with).
Try out the Preferences screen (under the Tools menu). You may want to
adjust some of these options. Or open the Help Search option under the Help
menu to see what topics you can learn and use.
If you're already an experienced Windows user, just have fun!
A new option on the Preferences screen allows you to turn the shading on
some reports on or off. The shading has the effect on most printers of
enhancing readability and appearance. Some printers perform the shading in
such a way as to be distracting. You'll have to decide whether shading is
something you want, and turn it off if it is a problem.
Once you've had a taste of the program, and want to own the full program,
you can order it directly from Incline Software, LC, by calling 1-800-825-8864,
(1-801-273-1521 local) or find it at your local computer software store, or
bookstore that carries genealogy software. (Ask for it if they don't have
it - they can probably order it for you.)
The disk also contains a demonstration database called ADAM.EXE which is a
self-extracting .ZIP file. Copy this file into a subdirectory (ex. c:\adam\)
then run ADAM.EXE to unzip the files. You can then access the database using
the File->Open command in Ancestral Quest. This database contains history of
European royalty back to adam.
YOU MAY FREELY DISTRIBUTE THIS DEMO VERSION.
