Enter "YES" to make the changes permanent. Otherwise
enter "NO", and the changes will be discarded.

Enter the codes that should be sent to the MODEM
when it is initialized. Examples of some codes
are:
"ATL2M1S11=55S0=0"
AT modem ATTENTION command (mandatory)
L2 Speaker volume (1-low,2-med,3-high)
M1 Speaker ON until connection
S11=55 speed dial (low numbers -> fast dialing)
S0=0 disable auto-answer
See your modem reference manual for more details.

Enter the mode in which you wish Contact Plus to be
started. If you select "NORMAL", Contact Plus will
start as a normal DOS application. If you are
running Windows or Desqview, you will need to
select "NORMAL".
If you select "MEMORY-RESIDENT", Contact Plus will
load itself into memory as a swapping TSR. It will
consume approximately 30K bytes of RAM memory while
it waits for you to press the "hot-key" to launch.
If there is a conflict between Contact Plus and
other memory resident programs, you may be forced to
run Contact Plus as a "normal" program only.
Use the "TAB" or "ENTER" key to move from option
to option. The hotkey should be selected using a
combination of "SHIFT", "ALT" and "CTRL" keys ...
so that it will have less chance of conflicting
with other programs that may be running.
Press "ESC" when finished editing the fields.
@@
Contact Plus can keep multiple databases ... one
for your prospects, customers, family, relatives,
baseball team, etc.
Normally, Contact Plus wants to start with the
default "CONTACT" database. You can change that
option here by selecting an alternate database.
Note: the alternate database must already have been
created (See the DATABASE MENU).
Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to select a database and
press the ENTER key.
@@
Enter the method in which to swap. If you do "NOT"
have EMS select the "DISK ONLY" option. Contact Plus
will then use the disk to swap itself to.
If you have EMS or are not sure, try the "EMS OR DISK"
option. Contact Plus will then try to swap out to
EMS first, and if that fails it will swap out to DISK.
The advantage of swapping to EMS is it is much faster
than swapping to disk.
If you don't want Contact Plus to try to swap to EMS,
then select "DISK ONLY". You may actually have EMS
installed on your system, but due to conflicts between
how Contact Plus handles EMS and how other programs
handle EMS, the EMS option may not work. In this
case you can force Contact Plus to swap to "DISK ONLY".
If you have a RAM drive and select the DISK ONLY
option, you can speed up the process of swapping
by specifying a RAM drive in the "SWAP DRIVE" prompt.
@@
Enter the drive and path that you wish Contact Plus to
store temporary files when swapped.
Examples are:
C:\TEMP
C:\
D:\TEMP
If you select the "DISK ONLY" or "DISK OR EMS" option
and have a RAM drive available, you should enter the
RAM drive here since it will greatly speed up the
operation of swapping.
Otherwise, select a hard disk drive with the most
available amount of free space available. Contact Plus
needs about "1.5 Megabyte" of free disk space when
swapping. If you do not have this much hard disk
space available, then you will not be able to
run in "MEMORY-RESIDENT" mode.
@@
Enter the "hotkey" you wish to use to when launching
Contact Plus. The "hotkey" is only valid if the
"MEMORY-RESIDENT" option is selected.
It is preferable that you use a combination of
keys so as not to interfere with keystrokes on
your underlying programs. Good combinations are
as follows:
<ALT><CTRL>C
<ALT><LEFT_SHIFT>Z
<ALT><CTRL><SPACE>
Contact Plus will "not" accept single key hot-key
combinations.
@@
When Contact Plus starts it sends Hayes commands to
initialize the modem. If you do not wish to send
initialization codes to the modem when Contact Plus
is started, answer "No" here.
@@
If this option is set to "Yes", you will notice that
the underlying background screen will "dim out" after
pressing one of the function keys (F7 - NOTES or
F3/F4 - PHONE CALLS). Some people find it easier to
concentrate on the popup being displayed.
If set to "No", then the underlying screen will be
unaffected.
@@
Enter the WORD PROCESSOR that you will be using
for form letters and mail/merge operation.
If you select WORDPERFECT, the mail/merge menu
will change as follows:
From To
TEMPLATE 1 PRIMARY FILE 1
TEMPLATE 2 PRIMARY FILE 2
...
TEMPLATE 8 PRIMARY FILE 8
Also, the WordPerfect macro - CPLUS will be
activated during mail/merge operations using
WordPerfect.
If you select MultiMate, the form letters will
automatically end with the extension - .DOC
If your word processor is not listed, select
the OTHER choice.
