manager for video collectors. To print the documentation, just type
print.bat at the DOS prompt and the manual will be listed to your printer.
Installation - if your system consists of a color monitor and an Epson or
Epson code compatible printer, you won't need to run the installation
program (VLBINST.COM). otherwise, you'll need to install VLB by using the
Vlbinst.com program. To start VLB, type VLB at the DOS prompt. I've included
a sample database so you can quickly examine and learn all the features of VLB
before you start using it to maintain your personal movie database. To use
the sample database, copy the files SAMPLE.DAT, SAMPLE.K1, SAMPLE.K2,
SAMPLE.K3, SAMPLE.K4, SAMPLE.K5 to your data disk, if you are using VLB from
a hard disk and want the files to reside on your hard disk they must be in
the same directory as the VLB program files. From the Main Screen Press C
(CHfile) which stands for change file and then enter the appropriate drive
letter and the word SAMPLE. The sample database will be loaded and
you can quickly examine all the features of VLB. The default database name
for VLB is VIDEO and is automatically created for you when you start VLB
for the first time. The default database is always loaded initially, but you
can switch to any previously created database from the Main Screen Menu.
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/
