- stack overfCreating a database consists of defining the fields that
you want in the database and assigning the database a
name.
Usage:
There are 4 options for field definition:
1. Field Name: This is the name of the field and may be
up to 10 characters long.
Note: In order to make full use of a memo field,
make sure that the field name for the memo field is 9
characters or less.
2. Field Type: There are 5 options for field types:
C = character-based field
N = numeric field
D = date field
L = logical field (Y or N, T or F)
M = memo or full text field
When you designate a field type for a new field, a
default field length will be placed in the field length
column. This default field length may be changed as
defined below to suit your need for the field length.
3. Field Length: This designates the length of the
field. Lengths for fields may be defined as follows:
Character fields: up to 255 characters
Numeric fields: up to 19 places including the
decimal point.
Date fields: 8 characters (fixed length)
Logical fields: 1 character (fixed length)
Memo fields: 10 characters (fixed length)
4. Demicals: If the field type is defined as numeric,
you may specify the number of decimal places the field is
to maintain. Remember, a numeric field may be up to 19
places including the decimal point.
To save the new database structure, press [F10] and enter
a name for the new database.
To cancel creating the database, press [ESC]. (R) disk full CLIPSORT CLIPSORT.TMP *.* ÍÑÍ ³

R600This option opens up a database structure for modi-
fication.
Usage:
There are 4 options for field definition.
1. Field Name: In this version of db-Express, you may not
change a field name after the database has been created
This would result in lose of data for that field. If you
must change a field name, delete the field, and add
another field with the name and definition that you want.
But, remember, deleting a field will cause all the data
for that field to be lost.
2. Field Type. Field types can be changed only if the
database being modified does not contain data. See the
manual for instructions on changing field types.
3. Field Length. This designates the length of the
field and depending on the field type, may be defined as
follows:
Character fields: up to 255 characters
Numeric fields: up to 19 places including
decimal point.
Date fields: 8 characters
Logical fields: 1 character
Memo fields: 10 characters
4. Field Decimals. If the field type is numeric, you
may specify the number of decimal places the field is to
maintain.

or would like to abort any changes, press [F10] to save
or abort the changes. (R) disk full CLIPSORT CLIPSORT.TMP *.* ÍÑÍ ³

Catalogues keep track of which indexes and reports are
linked to each database.
This option will open a window listing the indexes or
reports associated with the currently selected database.
Indexes and reports created through db-Express will be
added to the catalogue automatically. You may also add
new items to a catalogue.
To Add an Index or Report:
Move the cursor to the end of the list until it is
on a blank line and press [ENTER]. Then add the name
of the item. If the new item does not already exist,
you may create it later throught the Index or Report
Writer options.
To Delete an Index or Report:
Highlight the item to be deleted and press [DEL].
Items will not actually be deleted until the
Catalogue window is exited.

the [F10] (Tables) key is pressed, the specified table
will be opened automatically.
NOTE: Look Up Tables only work for character-based fields
(i.e. not numeric, logical, or date fields).
Usage:
A window will open with a list of the fields in the
active database. Next to each field you may enter the
name of a table to be mapped to that field. Look Up
Tables may also be shared between multiple databases.
Validating Data Entry with a Look Up Table:

The Report Writer is used to create and edit reports
linked to the active database file.
Usage: The Report Writer is divided into three sections:
Report Column Definition
Form Layout
Field Groups
1. Report Column Definition.
Column Heading: The column heading allows for four lines
of text to be displayed above the column.
Contents: Enter the field for the column. Use the real
field name (not the label). Press [F9] for a list of
field names and their lengths.
Note: If the specified print field is a memo type
field, for the field to print properly, enclose the
field name with MEMOTRAN(), e.g. MEMOTRAN(COMMENTS)
Print field width: Enter the width of the column (in
number of characters). If the width specified for the
column is less than the actual field width, the field
will wrap onto the next line.
Print decimal places: If the field for the column is a
numeric field, enter the number of decimal places to be
printed for that field.
Totals for this field: If the field is a numeric field,
a subtotal for the column can be printed at the bottom of
the column on each page of the report with a final total
on the last page.
2. Report Form Layout
The Report Form Layout option defines how the page layout
of the report will look. The options should be self-
explanatory.
3. Field Groups
Field groups allow you to sort a field (place all records
for a common field value together). For example, if you
were defining a report in which the database had the
fields "State" and "Senator," you could define the field
"State" as a Group. This way, each unique state value
would print as a sub-column header with the records
matching the state value printing immediately after it.
Note: For the Field Groups option to work correctly, the
field acting as the Group field should be indexed. (R) disk full CLIPSORT CLIPSORT.TMP *.* ÍÑÍ ³
Options:
Location of DBE (automatic): Drive letter (e.g. C,D)

a:\ (or)
C:\data
Default Database: If you enter an existing database
name, that database will be opened for use each time the
program is started.
Run in Color: If you are using a color monitor and
graphics card, the program will default to running in
color. You may force it to run in black and white by
entering "N." (This may be necessary if you are using a
color graphics card or Hercules (tm) card with a
monochrome monitor).

ÿ run-timedBase memo fields can grow rather large, especially if
they are edited often, as old data is not automatically
deleted by an update.

single field or an entire record into the buffer to be
pasted elsewhere. If there is data in the buffer, the
Paste option will become active on the pull-down menus.
When [F8] ("Paste") is pressed, whatever is in the copy
buffer will replace what is in the current field or the
entire record (be careful!). If you are not sure how much
data is in the copy buffer, press [F7] and a check mark
will appear to the right of the last option selected for
copying.
Note: If pasting single field values, the type of field
that you are pasting to must match the field type of the
original copy field.

Links are a way of establishing a relation to another
database "on the fly." A link is literally a match on
the same field name and field value in another database.
To establish a link to another database from the current
field, enter Full Screen ("Edit") mode and press [ALT]+L.
Note: A link cannot be established if a field filter is
active.
If you have already established which database to
link to (see: Topic "Set Links"), a link will be
established automatically. If not, you will be asked
to which database you wish to link.
Next, you will then be asked if you want to add or view
links:
Adding a Link: This option will append a new record to
the linked-to database and will place the value from the
original field in the new record, thus establishing a
link. Complete the new record as desired.
If you wish to add another link to the linked-to file,
press [PgDn] on the last screen of the record. You will
be asked if you want to add another.
Viewing a Link: This option finds all matches in the
linked to database and displays then in an overlapping
Browse Window. Pressing [ALT]+E on a record in the
window will open that record in Full Screen (Edit) mode.
NOTE: Once you exit from a link to a second database, you
will be returned to the Main Menu.

With the Look Up option [F10], you may select values from
Look Up Tables to be entered into a field.
To activate a Look Up Table for a specific field, press
[F10]. If the field has not been "mapped" to a
specific table (see Topic "Map Table"), a list of all
Look Up Tables will appear from which to choose. Press
[ENTER] on the Table you wish to use.
If the current field has been mapped to a table, that
table will open automatically when you press [F10].
If the currently selected field is not a memo field, you
may select one value from the Table for that field.
Highlight the value that you want and press [ENTER]. The
selected value will be placed in the current field.
If the currently selected field is a memo field, you may
select as many values from the Table as you like. A
check mark will appear in front of each field selected.
Press [ESC] to quit selecting values. Each table value
selected will be placed in the memo field, one value per
line.
Adding Values to a Mapped Table:
If the current field has been mapped to a specific table,
and you wish to add the field value to that table, press

directory, the next time the Files window is openned, the
directory used will be the one set under the
"Preferences" option.
Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!
This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.
But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
