Introduction
========================================
Record Keeping is one of the MOST IMPORTANT TASKS THAT A PERSON
DOES, EVEN THOUGH IT USUALLY IS NOT ONE OF HIS FAVORITE TASKS. As
money continues to stay hard to come by, it is even more important to
keep good records.
The purpose of this set of programs is to help one do a better
and easier job of record keeping. These programs WILL NOT DO ANYTHING
THAT YOU CANNOT DO MANUALLY BY YOURSELF, the computer and computer
programs will just do it easier and faster.
The programs are designed to allow a person with limited knowledge
of computers to operate the system effectively and easily. If you will
read the information that is shown on the computer screen and then
answer the questions or follow the directions, you should have no
trouble in using the BUSINESS/PERSONAL RECORD KEEPING PROGRAM.
The programs that are a part of this system are described on the
following pages. Also shown are examples of what the computer screen
will look like at the various times during operation.
After starting up your computer and answering the "DATE" call,
etc., if applicable, in the manner that you desire, type BMENU to
execute the Menu program if the diskette does not have an automatic
execution file on it to do this for you. (You can create this file if
you wish by referring to your computer manual and following the section
on creating an automatic file - using AUTOEXEC.BAT file.)
After you loaded the menu program, you will notice that it offers
several options for you in using the BUSINESS/PERSONAL RECORD KEEPING
PROGRAM (as well as other programs that may be used along with this
program.)
All of programs in the MS-DOS Version are written in Compiler Basic
and as a result can be executed from the System Ready Prompt.
PROTECTING YOUR DATA -- MAKING BACKUP COPIES
============================================
As you should already know, few things in this world are permanent.
When you start to use this program, one of the first things that you
should do is to make a "BACKUP" copy of your ORIGINAL PROGRAM DISKETTE.
If you do this and then put the ORIGINAL DISKETTE IN A SAFE PLACE AND
USE THE BACKUP COPY YOU WILL ALWAYS BE SAFE IN CASE SOMETHING UNUSUAL
HAPPENS AND THE COPY GETS DESTROYED.

__________________________________________
LIKEWISE YOU SHOULD PRACTICE GOOD COMPUTER PROCEDURE AND PERIODICALLY
BACKUP YOUR DATA DISKETTES. If you do this, you will always have a copy
to fall back on should something happen to the working diskette. Your
computer operation reference manual tells you how to do this BACKUP
PROCEDURE. If you follow those suggestions and PRACTICE GOOD, SAFE RULES
OF OPERATION, (KEEP SODA, COFFEE, FOOD, AND ASHES, ETC. AWAY FROM THE
COMPUTER) YOU SHOULD HAVE NO PROBLEMS.
