Abstract
This is the powerful successor to PC-FILE III, the user-supported software with an installed base of a quarter million users. Now sold as a conventional copyrighted product, PC-FILE/R is an inexpensive, powerful, fast, and user-friendly database manager which is also relational (43 databases may be open simultaneously, compared to 10 for dBASE III). Though PC-FILE/R can be run with only 128K of memory, it will take full advantage of additional memory up to 640K. It supports 32,767 records, 42 fields per record, and 1,665 characters per record. It has an integrated form letter package with a mini word processor, plus two standard report options. Data may be exchanged with LOTUS 1-2-3, dBASE III, and VISICALC, as well as with MAILMERGE, WORD, WORDPERFECT, and PEACHTEXT. Pop-up help screens are available at all times. If you can get by with 42 fields and don't need a built-in programmable database language, this package could be more attractive than dBASE III, the industry de facto standard. (Future versions may eliminate even these drawbacks.)
