ÉÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍ» º Area Code Locator º ÈÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍͼ AUTHOR: MICHAEL STEWART ADDRESS: 12 STANWIX ST ALBANY N.Y. 12209 I can be located on InfoTech BBS 518-432-5745 24 hrs 300 - 9600 8-N-1 This program was written due to the frustration of getting a BBS phone number that I wanted to call and having no indication of where the BBS was located!! It is based on three key values: AREA CODE STATE ABBREVIATION MAJOR CITY WITHIN AREA CODE/STATE All keys are sort fields, with area code being the primary. The state fields are the recognized two letter abbreviations. Don't worry, when you are at any of the state fields or have just displayed an inquiry list pressing PF1 will dislpay the FULL state name along with the two letter abbreviation. I have included a maintenance program just in case you don't like the major cities that I have included, or just want to expand the data. ACL - Area Code Locator is a "Shareware" program - it is NOT free!!!! Registration, which costs $5.00 will entitle you to the latest version along with all enhancements. The latest version and other programs are available for downloading from InfoTech BBS. Suggestions are always welcome... feel free to contact me on InfoTech BBS. ACL (AREA CODE LOCATOR) may be distributed to your friends and uploaded to other BBS provided that the ENTIRE AC_LOCTR ZIP file is distributed or uploaded in it's ORIGINAL state. NO fee beyond a small copying cost (limited to the cost of diskette) may be charged for this program! In any case, the fee may not exceed $2.00. TO RUN ALC: Type AREA to initiate the batch file AREA.BAT The executable programs and files should all be in the same directory or in your path stmt. When the menu appears select the INQUIRY by placing the highlight bar over it and pressing ENTER. The next options available are the type of key access you want and the partial or exact option Pressing PF1 will display help windows to aid you in your selection.... PLEASE BACK-UP THE DATA FILES "ACFILE.DAT" AND "ACFILE.NDX" - THESE ARE THE LISTS OF DATA YOU USE IN THE PROGRAMS... A SIMPLE DOS COPY WILL DO THE TRICK, THEN STORE THE BACK-UP. Collectors of Coins and Baseball Cards will be interested in the two other full Management programs that I have written. These programs, like ACL, are written in "C" and feature extensive sort and report capabilities, on-line help, "pick-list" windows for fast data entry, and operate on color or mono IBM and compatibles. Call InfoTech and look for these and other fine programs... If ACL (area code locator) has been of use to you, register today by sending $5.00 to: Mike Stewart 12 Stanwix St. Albany N.Y. 12209 Upon reciept, I will issue you a registration number and a logon for InfoTech that will allow you access to all future upgrades, and new applications. InfoTech is available for all to use, however, the upgrades and new applications that I write are on a special board called Registered Users. Access is only to registered users of any of my products, all other files are accessible to any Infotech that has been verified and registered to the BBS. Thanks...
