DESCRIPTION: Pin Ups Version 1.1a is a LAN-based Bulletin Board System for Windows 3.x, Windows for Workgroups 3.11, & Windows NT environments. Offering Multiple Bulletin Boards as well as Remote Access Links to other Bulletin Boards in other Cities or Countries, It now makes Centralizing messages easier than ever while eliminating the need to proliferate the same message to each and every Email user. PINUPS.EXE Shareware Version, and can be installed either from a hard disk drive directory or a 720 KB (or larger) diskette while in Windows. Here is a summary of Pin Ups features: 1) Bulletins can be created by anyone and need not have unique Subject names, although it is easier to keep track of subjects if they are unique to each bulletin. 2) Only the originator of a bulletin can delete it or change what it says. And since his or her login name accompanies the bulletin, Pin Ups will be used in a professional manner. 3) Once a bulletin has reached its expiration date, the system will delete it at its next access. This automatic purging keeps the volume of information to a manageable level. 4) Pin Ups can be used as an internal tool as well as LAN wide. That is, you can have one system of Pin Ups for everyone in your organization and another system for the LAN as a whole. 5) Shortcut buttons below the menu bar place most frequently used functions just a click away rather than requiring you to traverse pull-down menus. 6) Double Click a Bulletin and you can Copy it to a New Bulletin in the same Category, Another Category, Or Another Bulletin Board System. IMPORTANT SYSTEM FILES INFORMATION When you download PINUPS.EXE, simply type its name at the command prompt in any directory on any drive and it will self-extract into a Windows installation set. Then execute the setup command to install it. If you really want to experience its awesome value, install it on a PC server where others can get to it. Your inputs and theirs will not conflict! Pin Ups has been engineered with security in mind so all system files and directories are not readily accessible from DOS or Windows' File Manager. They can, however, be edited if they need to be if, for some reason you wish to change how a category's name is spelled (all CAPS in some cases). To access them, you need to put Pin Ups in SysOp mode. Sorry -- The file open dialog box cannot open a Pin Ups system file either!
