Concept

The general idea here is to allow your to take any standard text file created by any editor and break it up into records.

Example:

IIndex:  Doe,John

Line-1:   John Doe

Line-2:   Jons Company Name

Line-3:   1234 John Lane

Line-4:   Anytown,  Tx   12345-1234

Line-5:   707-555-1212

 The above lines of text will represent the first record in the card file format, i.e. your cardfile record size will be six lines in the above example. The first line will always be used as the index for the record.  Once you define this layout the program will allow you to select records by key index and then merge them with the documents in the Letter Manager.

Letter Manager

The picture above shows the Letter Manager screen. The Letter Manager will allow you to define any directory as a Category Directory and even give it a title. Within the directories the Letter Manager will find any file that has the standard TXT extension, you may move from one directory to another, select a letter and merge it with the current card record.

When a card file is opened an index will appear above the record layout, you may select the index or use the forward/backward keys located above the record. There is also a dropdown list available to scroll for the appropriate record. Select a record and then call the letter managerto merge it.
