Houston, Texas August 4, 1992 -- "Finally, a database you can really use, with NO PROGRAMMING REQUIRED!" EZX Publishing the originator of dedicated business forms processing software for the PC, has released Version 4.0 of EZ-FORMS DataBase (single user and LAN versions). This product addresses one of any business' major needs management, manipulation and insertion of related information into various business forms. EZFDB is a sophisticated dBASE compatible, fully relational database and "form filler/creator" designed for use by database novices as well as experts. The reasonably priced LAN versions (for Novell and most other DOS based networks) make EZFDB a bona fide bargain. EZFDB is Windows 3.x, DESQview, and MS-DOS 5.0 & DR-DOS 6.0 compliant. EZ-Forms DataBase is a best buy at ... ONLY $149 (single user edition) Single LAN Server Edition: $995 Unlimited site license: $5995 Others available. EZForms DataBase provides much more than just an intelligent method for creating, managing, and/or filling in common business forms such as invoices, purchase orders, etc. Explains EZX's GM, Ed Marion: "We work under the premise that the basic unit of business is the form. A form is essentially an empty template into which data is entered. Under this definition, the ubiquitous mailing label constitutes a legitimate EZ-Forms DataBase business form. Even a spreadsheet is nothing more than a rigid, rectangular form. And, who hasn't heard of 'form letters'?" "The LAN versions of EZ-Forms DataBase are the bargain of the software industry. Where else can you get a LAN server license (all concurrent users) for a major database software application for $995?.??" EZForms DataBase loads a form generated by an integral forms editor, or one of the program's own pre-designed forms. It can automatically produce an input screen for that form. Alternately, information from any EZForms DataBase input screens can be loaded into any form, in any order, simply by giving a common name to both an input screen field and a "cell" from within that form. Now companies utilizing EZForms DataBase need only maintain industry standard dBASE compatible data files, which will allow them to quickly fill in labels, purchase orders, sales receipts ... any type of business form. That is, multiple views of the information in any database. Best of all, because EZ-Forms DataBase is a genuine relational database, all the search, sort, view, lookup and select functions you've come to associate with dBASE and other databases are a part of EZ-Forms DataBase. The program can even import other file formats, such as fixed length, ASCII or FileExpress databases, into a dBASE compatible file. And, because EZFDB generates dBASE files, any of the dozens of third party products, which use the dBASE format, will work with EZForms DataBase files. EZ-Forms DataBase brings all the advantages of having the industry standard dBASE file format, plus it uses the logical forms metaphore for data presentation, to the non- "power-user." The program has extensive pop-up help screens (including user configurable), the popular "pull-down" type selection bar, macros for repetative functions, on-the-fly record counting, summing and averaging report features, logical operators, field validations, calculations, and even fully editable "memo field". NEW FEATURES INCLUDE: User configureable form HELP, PICK LISTS, Field Sequencing; Relational Pick List Function with Browse; Word-Wrap between user configured fields; Network Administration Support (LAN versions); support for over 500 popular printers with quick select at print time; inter- and intra-database relational functions; full-fledged stylish report capabilities with headers, footers and pagination; calculated fields; imports and substitutes; powerful clone function; easy field add-in/on; auto-start macros; ascending and descending indexes; and more... We've also introduced Version 2.4 of the optional Laser Soft Font Support Pack for the HP LaserJet Plus, Series II, III, and compatible printers. This product contains over 130 downloadable soft fonts which are optimized for forms. The HPLIFSP also allows the use of graphic images such as signatures, logos, full page scanned forms, and even allows you to create your own logo from scratch. The HPLlFSP v.2.4 is only $99. Optional pre-designed form template packs are also available.
