<1>..Edit/Delete all reviews of a restaurant
      Users will constantly be entering reviews with wrong, incomplete, or
      missing addresses, phone numbers, zip codes, restaurant type, and/or
      specialty of the house. Here is the place for you to change it if
      you wish to have consistant data.

      You can also change the status on whether or not a restaurant honors
      the dinning club or not. Since this field can only be entered by the
      sysop, you might want to do a global set on this flag fairly often,
      particularly if you are chargeing restaurants for the priveldge of
      being listed in a BBS Dining Club Member (r).

      You may also delete all reviews of a restaurant here.

      BE CAREFUL:
      Restaurants are only comparied to the length of the name you enter.
      If you enter a partial name, you may delete or modify other
      restaurants that only begin with the same letters as what you enter.
      For example, entering PIZZA would cause all reviews of Pizza Hut,
      Pizza Inn, Pizza House, Pizza & Pasta, Pizza Keg, etc. to also be
      deleted or modified. If someone entered a review on just Pizza, you
      would have to delete it as an individual deletion from the main menu.
      (Sysop can edit or delete any callers review.)

<2>..Delete all reviews by a user
      Got a user who'es being a pain, this will delete all reviews
      (s)he has left for any restaurant.

<3>..Delete all reviews older than x days
      Simple way to roll off the old reviews.

<4>..Export reviews to a file
      You can export ALL reviews or only those entered since the last time
      you did an export. The ALL option is good if you add a new system you
      share reviews with. The file will be a standard comma delimited text
      file with your s/n.txt. If your serial number is RV100001, then the
      file will be name RV100001.TXT and will be created in the same sub-
      directory that contains your review program. If one already exits it
      will be renamed RV100001.BAK just in case you really didn't mean it.

<5>..Import reviews
      Imports another systems reviews to your database. When prompted for
      system ID, enter the six digits of the system you are importing. If
      their s/n is RV100002, you would enter "100002" and the program will
      append the file RV100002.TXT to your database. The file must be in
      the same sub-directory that contains your review program.

<6>..Delete duplicates
      A user can not enter two reviews of the same restaurant on the same
      BBS. However, they could review a restaurant on the bbs you are
      shareing with. This simply deletes those.

<7>..Pack Database
      When records are "deleted" they are only marked "deleted". This
      physically removes them from the database and returns the diskspace
      to use. Essentially the same thing as squeezeing the message file.
      This requires that nobody else be using the program at the same time,
      and it takes a long time so you might not want to "pack" on a daily
      basis.

<8>..Reindex
      Theoriritically, you should never have to reindex... The ability is
      here to make it easy for you when it does happen due to losing power
      grimlins, etc.

<9>..BBS Dining Club (r)
      When you purchase the Restaurant Review program, you also recive a
      license to use the BBS Dining Club service marks and logo. There is
      an opportunity here for you to SELL restaurants in your area member-
      ships in the BBS Dining Club. Memberships allows restaurants to
      advertise that they are a supported of BBS. You can work it either
      that a restaurant will pay for the privledge of being listed as a BBS
      Dining Club member -or- you can ask restaurants to authorize you to
      distribute a limited number of "two for the price of one" coupons
      that you could give to callers who support you. There is no additional
      cost to you if you want to use the program. Just remember me (and Phil
      Buonomo who gave me the idea) when you become rich and famous!
