AD2 Tools and Wizards Program Cut and Paste--Carve parts of your application into other applications with only a few keystrokes. Move complete programs from one directory to another. From a directory with a dozen different applications, copy one entire application to another directory. Develop an application in pieces, then merge the parts together to form one system. Help Wizard --Enhanced Help Systems. Small Help Windows. Scrollable Help Topics. Additional information for Help Topics, for introductory, installation, and appendix information. Load User Help Wizard takes your user's edited help files and loads the information back into your Zachary files, keeping you up to date. Unlike the Zachary utility to do the same thing, the AD2 utility also loads up edits to the additional text records iî the Heìp Topics system (the introductory and appendix information). Automatically includes help for ZFREE and PRNLIST if they are defined in your application. User Manual Wizard--Instant User Manual generated with only a few keystrokes, complete with screens and a table of contents. Fast! Or, put the function in your program to generate a User Manual on the spot, complete with your user's edits. Additional information included in User Manuals, for introductory, installation, and appendix information. Tech Report Wizard--Instant generation of technical reports, documenting your application. Choose a brief report or a highly detailed report, or somewhere in between. If you have Expert Help, generate an Expert Help Technical Report that lets you instantly pop up your tech report, with complete definitions and a field cross reference report, all in hypertext. Renumber Wizard--Renumber fields in a procedure in your Zachary definition files, quick and easy. Or, renumber all the fields in your application with a few easy keystrokes. AD-Setup Wizard--A complete installation program. Let AD2 generate a set of installation disks for your program, or prepare files to install from CD. Create directories, set read-only attributes, compress files, check CONFIG.SYS, AUTOEXEC.BAT for FILES, BUFFERS, PATH, etc. And SETUP.EXE takes only about 130K on your distribution diskette. And it recognizes Windows Me, NT, 2000 and XP and handles the unique configuration requirements. Screen Utilities--Copy your main background screen to another application in the same or another directory. Copy a Custom Browse Screen to a Custom Validation Browse Screen, and vice-versa. |
