WinPAS Plus32 includes a tutorial to teach you how to use the software!
WinPAS Plus32 can import address book information from Microsoft Outlook Express. The information you've entered into the Outlook Express address book can be transferred directly into WinPAS Plus32. You don't have to re-type the information!
The N&A File can contain up to 1700 distinct entries. By including appropriate data in the N&A records, you can use the single N&A File as if it were several files. For example, a file of personal friends, a file of business associates, a file of club members, a file of Christmas card recipients, etc.
Five N&A lines, five free-form telephone numbers, an E-Mail address, a comment line, and QuickLinks to other records can be stored for each N&A entry. Click the Sample Screens button at the bottom of this page to view a sample N&A record.
Each N&A entry also includes two optional sort keys. The sort keys give you control of the sequence of printed documents. These keys are independent of the actual name/address information. This allows you to sort on data that is totally unrelated to your N&A data if desired. Data can be sorted on one or both keys, with either key being major (highest priority). Both keys can be combined to provide one large key.
The N&A File can be searched using complete or partial information. You can search on any combination of data fields. The search key can be up to 35 characters in length.
Searching can be used to locate and display N&A records containing information you specify.
Searching can also be used to generate customized Mailing Lists from which to produce printed output, sorted to your specification.
When generating a Mailing List, records that satisfy the search criteria can be displayed onscreen as they are encountered. This provides an additional level of selection in that you can include/exclude records on an individual basis.
Mailing Lists can also be built manually, by specifying which names to include in the list.
Any number of Mailing Lists can be generated and saved. Each Mailing List can contain up to 1700 entries. A given N&A can appear on any number of distinct Mailing Lists.
Many types of documents can be printed: Address Book (2 formats) Telephone List (2 formats) Mailing labels (1, 2, or 3 labels across) Name and Address database content Rotary File Cards (1 or 2 cards across) Envelopes (Many sizes to choose from)
For the visually impaired, WinPAS Plus32 can produce a N&A Book in large print.
Documents can be printed on continuous forms or cut sheets (individual pages).
Most documents can be duplex (2-side) printed. Even if your printer doesn't support duplex printing. Saves trees.
The QuickFind feature lets you view and select a record from an abbreviated version of the N&A File, sorted to your specification.
The Find Duplicate Records feature allows you to locate and (optionally) delete duplicate N&A records. You can locate duplicates on the basis of the name and/or address fields.
QuickLinks allow you link associated N&A records so you can quickly access one record from another.
Search and Replace provides the ability to find and replace information in multiple N&A records simultaneously.
