           EZ-FORMS gives you the capability to use your computer to
           create master forms tailor-made to suit your unique needs.
           Once created, these forms can be filled out and stored
           under code names pertaining to their use (ie billing,
           invoice, comments, etc).  EZ-FORMS also gives you the
           capability to print and/or store completed or master
           forms.  Comments or suggestions for improving EZ-FORMS
           will be appreciated.







                              SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

          EZ-FORMS requires an IBM PC or compatible with at least
          256K of RAM.  Printers supported include the Epson graphics
          printer and daisywheel printers like the Bytewriter.
          Display adapters known to work with EZ-FORMS are IBM mono-
          chrome, color, and enhanced graphics adapters. Because
          direct screen access is used to enable high speed updating
          of screen information, EZ-FORMS may be unuseable on the not
          too close IBM PC compatibles.  If this occurs please
          provide information on your screen memory starting address
          and I will try to include your display adapter particulars
          in the EZ-FORMS defaults.  If you have a "green screen"
          monitor attached to your color graphics card, don't forget
          to use the DOS mode command -- MODE BW80.  This will ensure
          correct conversion of colors for your monitor.




                          HELP FOR DIRECTORY SCREEN


  To edit an existing form simply press enter/return and type in one
  of the names in the directory listing.  If you want to generate a
  new form then select option 1 from the main menu and enter a new
  name when prompted for the file name during a directory listing.

  All files in the directory listing are sorted if this option has not
  been disabled with the EZ-FORMS install program.  A very fast sort
  routine is used, but with a large directory it may take a few seconds.

  EZ-FORMS can handle a directory containing up to 2000 files.  If you
  have more files than that in a SINGLE directory then please break the
  directory into smaller ones prior to running EZ-FORMS in that directory.





                         MORE HELP FOR DIRECTORY SCREEN


  When a directory is displayed, the files will be sorted and displayed
  left to right -- top of screen to bottom in order.  Please take note
  of the highlighted commands listed at the bottom of the screen.

  If "Enter --> Input Filename" is displayed then you are expected to
  look over the directory entries using the commands listed in the window
  at the bottom of the screen.  After you do this, use enter/return to
  signal that you are ready to select a form to work with.  Simply type
  in the form name at the prompt and press enter/return again.  If you
  got here by accident the press enter/return without a filename entered
  and EZ-FORMS will return you to the main menu.

  If "Enter --> Input Filename" is not displayed then the directory is
  there as a status and you are expected to press F10 to exit after you
  finish looking it over.

  You can always use F10 to exit without further action.

  CtrlK means while holding down the Ctrl key press the K key.  Block text
  and block file operations use the marked text area and the current cursor
  location.  Example -- for a block move the block will be moved from the
  highlighted area to where the cursor was when you pressed the CtrlK V
  key combination.

  Using the F7 key for a border and the F6 key for a line often don't fill
  in all the areas that you might want for forms.  The keys Alt F1-F10 and
  Ctrl F1 have been added to provide the capability for COMPLETELY solid
  forms.  These keys are:

  Alt F1 --> Ú      NOTE: These characters are handled in the editor just as
  Alt F2 --> ¿            any other characters typed in from the keyboard.
  Alt F3 --> À            If insert is ON then these characters will be
  Alt F4 --> Ù            inserted into the text on the screen, moving other
  Alt F5 --> Ä            characters over.
  Alt F6 --> ³
  Alt F7 --> Ã            EZ-FORMS will translate these special characters to
  Alt F8 --> ´            characters your printer can understand.  If your
  Alt F9 --> Â            printer can print character graphics AND you have
  Alt F10--> Á            selected it (must use EZINSTAL), then you will get
  Ctrl F1--> Å            COMPLETELY solid lines.  DEPENDS ON PRINTER!
