[DXBase] Using the Radio Amateur Callbook CD-ROM with DXBase

2002年1月31日 21:32:55 -0600

I searched the DXBase web site to see if this might be explained there, as
the help file with DXB2002 is incorrect. I know this has been discussed
before on the reflector, but I don't believe this reflector offers a
searchable archive.
Here is how to do it, and I would recommend that this information be added
to any updates to the program documentation, and on the web page.
If you follow the install information provided in the ReadMe.txt file on the
CD-ROM to place the program AND data on your hard drive the install program
will do the install to: C:\RAC\. You can change this, but this is the
default.
Here is the set up for DXB2002:
Tools|Options|User Options|Address CDROM Configuration:
CDROM Drive: C (without the ":")
CDROM Data Path: \RAC\
CDROM Type: RAC!
Check "Activate CDROM interface"
Check "Auto Screen Lookups"
This is for the Winter 2000 edition of RAC. I suppose a newer version could
have changed the directories, but hopefully not!
After doing the install as described in the CD-ROM's readme.txt file you
should put a shortcut to C:\RAC\CALLBOOK.EXE on your desktop to take full
advantage of the capabilities of the package.
