The personal computer is an ideal tool to assist you in your search of your family tree ... providing the capability to quickly add new information, retrieve and update existing records, and the generation of meaningful charts to document your research. Family-Tree, Etc ... known to your computer as FT-ETC ... is a 'menu' driven system with single keystroke commands, scrolling, mini-windows and screen/printer/diskette report capability. The system is currently designed to support a family tree with a maximum of 999 persons, consisting of the following data: Name of Individual 26 Characters Sex of Individual Dates of Birth/Death/Marriage(s) 9 " each Place of Birth/Death/Marriage(s) 20 " each Mother/Father/Spouse(s) Names 26 " each Family-Tree, Etc -------------------------------------------------- Page 3 ---------------------------------------- Copyright 1984 Pine Cone Software INSTALLATION Your FT-ETC distribution diskette contains the following files: FT-ETC.EXE Menu program FT-ETC-C.EXE Charts program FT-ETC-M.EXE Maintenance program FT-ETC-R.EXE Family-Tree Reorganization program FT-ETC.TXT Documentation FT-ETC.PCS Options file The following files will be created after the creation of the Family Tree data base: FT-ETC.DB1 Family-Tree 'Person' Data Base FT-ETC.DB2 Family-Tree 'Location' Data Base FT-ETC.DB3 Family-Tree 'Work' Data Base FT-ETC.RPT DISKETTE option report file The distribution diskette is your 'master' copy and and should be duplicated ... with the duplicate becoming your everyday working copy of the system. The following directions explain how to make your duplicate copy: 1. Start your DOS system (Ctrl/Alt/Del) 2. Following your DOS system commands as when to swap/change diskettes, FORMAT a new diskette with the following command: A>format b:/s 3. Place a write-protect tab on the distribution diskette, and then COPY the FT-ETC programs and files to the newly formatted diskette: A>copy FT-ETC*.* b: 4. Optional - To provide more work space on your new diskette, you may want to delete (ERASE) the documentation file from the newly created diskette with the command: A>erase FT-ETC.TXT 5. Optional - You may at some point in time wish to remove the Famity-Tree Data Bases from the diskette (drastic!) and re- start from ground zero by creating a new data base using the MAINTENANCE Option. The following command will ERASE the data bases from the diskette: A>erase FT-ETC.DB* Family-Tree, Etc -------------------------------------------------- Page 4 ---------------------------------------- Copyright 1984 Pine Cone Software FT-ETC To start the 'Family-Tree, Etc' system, you should be in DOS mode (not BASIC or BASICA) and have the DOS prompt character '>' on the screen ... key FT-ETC ... which is the name of the main pro- gram on your diskette.
