SCBABOTL is a full-featured logging program for Fire Department 
Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus bottles.  It is superb if your department
fills bottles for other municipalities.  It features:

1. Programmable "F" keys to aid in entering information.

2. A multitude of reports, including:
   a. Total bottles filled between two dates, limited to only one specific
      department, if desired.
   b. Summary report of how many bottles filled for whom.
   c. Inventory capability of your bottles, with the "last date filled" and
      other information automatically updated by your entries.
   d. Early warning of bottles coming due for hydrostatic test.
   e. Early warning of bottles which have not been used within three months
      of having been filled (per NFPA 1500) and need refilled before use.
   f. The inventory function for your bottles has a "notes" section for
      pertinent maintenance or damage history.
   g. Searches by partial serial number.
   h. Printouts by serial number of the maintenance notes of your inventory.

3. Easy backup of data files without having to go through DOS.

It was written so I no longer had to chase through each truck looking for 
bottles needing whatever.  It showed the Chief exactly how many bottles we 
were filling for other departments who lacked their own  compressors.  
It helped convince the Administration we needed a second, faster compressor
and a larger bank.

Hope you like it.

                              NEW STUFF

SCBABOTL version 1.1                                      September 22, 1991

1. Now features user-programmable "F" keys.  Department names can be stored
   to any of the ten "F" keys to eliminate redundant typing and mispelling.

3. The "needs refilled" report now ignores DURATION IN MINUTE times of less
   than 30 minutes, as per NFPA 1500.

4. Now generates a summary report of the number of bottles filled for each
   department, between two specified dates, without listing all of the dates,
   serial numbers, etc.

5. Now totals the number of bottles shown on any report at the bottom of the
   last page of a report.
