*****************************************************

This is a simple DX Century Club Award tracking system for
dBASE IV, using the Applications Generator. You can use
this system with a runtime-only version of dBASE IV, or you
can run it or make modifications to it using a full copy of
dBASE IV. Source code is included so that dBASE III users
can modify the system to run under the prior version.

I offer this system to dBASE users in the amateur radio
community, to use as-is or as a basis for expansion. It is
available free of charge as a Shareware product. My only
request is that those who share it take care to ensure that
ALL 53 files listed in this document are passed on to the
next user or bulletin board system. See file list below.
NOTE: As you use the system, dBASE may create additional
files for its own use. They need not be passed on to the
next user. However, all files listed below are required
for the system to work properly.

No registration fees are required or solicited. Please
direct any comments or questions to my mailing address in
the latest Radio Amateur Callbook. If you want to be
assured a clean, virus-checked copy of the system, please
send $2 to my callbook address with your request to cover
duplication and mailing costs.


Functions
---------

This system incorporates the following functions:

1. Ability to track stations worked and confirmed on each
band, 160 through 10 meters (including WARC bands).
Tracking information is Date Worked, Callsign Worked,
Date Confirmed, Callsign Confirmed.

2. Ability to print a status report for any individual band,
or for all bands.

Installation Procedure
----------------------

1. Set up a subdirectory called DB4DXCC under your existing
DB4 directory on your hard disk. Copy all files into
this subdirectory.

2. Set up a .BAT file, Automenu routine, or other menu
selection startup routine with the following sequence of
commands:

PATH=(your normal path);C:\DB4;C:\DB4\DB4DXCC
CD DB4\DB4DXCC
DBASE /T DB4DXCC
PATH=(your normal path)
CD \

You may want to set up multiple copies of the system in
different subdirectories to handle separate tracking of
mixed mode, SSB, CW, and RTTY other award categories.
