PC-SIG Version: S1

Author Version: 1.09
Author Registration: $30.00
Special Requirements: Hard drive or high-density floppy drive.
PRODEV*MEMBER is an excellent Church Membership Giving, Attendance and
Talent tracking system for any sized church. Pull-down menus and
on-screen ``what to do next'' instructions with context-sensitive Help
makes the system highly intuitive to learn and use. The system uses
dBASE III+-compatible files and does not require the user to own the
dBASE system.
Keep track of any number of members, non-members, former members,
shut-ins, visitors, and affiliated missionaries. By using a
relationally-linked child database, information can be kept on zero to
any number of children per member. Givings or Offerings are easily
posted and a complete range of Giving Statements can be printed. Enter
the appropriate information on talents, duties, and teaching expertise.

This program is produced by a member of the Association of Shareware
Professionals (ASP). ASP wants to make sure that the shareware
principle works for you. If you are unable to resolve a shareware-
related problem with an ASP member by contacting the member directly,
ASP may be able to help. The ASP Ombudsman can help you resolve a dispute
or problem with an ASP member, but does not provide technical support for
members' products. Please write to the ASP Ombudsman at 545 Grover Road,
Muskegon MI 49442-9427 or send a Compuserve Mail message to ASP Ombudsman

Version 1.09 ProDev*MEMBER 05/15/91
Thank you for evaluating my Shareware Software. If you find that you
are able to use this software beyond the evaluation stage, you must
register your copy with PRO DEV Software. The Registration Fee is only
$25.00 FOR EACH COPY IN USE plus $5.00 Shipping and Handling. The next
page is the order form. To insure your satisfaction, I offer the
following.
Pre-Registration Support
You can call (preferred) or write to PRO DEV Software with any
necessary questions about setting up or effectively using this
Shareware for your Church. Please be sure to follow the
Installation instructions in the README.DOC file . . .
COPY A:README.DOC PRN (Enter)
. . . before calling or writing. You must operate this system on a
hard disk. There will NOT be room to operate this system on a
floppy disk system without a hard disk. If I determine that you
have received a faulty evaluation copy, I will probably send you a
complimentary evaluation copy.
Here is what you will get for your registering.
1. You will receive a registered copy of the latest version of the
ProDev*MEMBER system Shareware disk so that you will NOT have to
enter the copyright screen random number. You will also be able to
skip the closing screen. You will NOT be sent a printed copy of
the documentation as the on-disk manual is complete and describes
all features. This also holds down the registration cost of this
powerful system.
2. You will receive at least 1 year of telephone (preferred) or
written support. For registrants outside the USA or Canada, I will
not be able to return telephone calls as the overseas rates can
rapidly exceed the low registration cost.
3. If within 90 days of receiving the registered disk you find that
you are not satisfied with the ProDev*MEMBER system, you may return
the REGISTERED DISK in the original PRO DEV Software disk mailer
(or equivalent) for a full refund.
5. If you discover what appears to be a bug, PRO DEV Software will
attempt to resolve the bug within 30 days from the time that PRO
DEV Software receives your full telephoned (preferred) or written
description of the bug. If the cause of the perceived bug is a
result of unusual hardware or software that you are using, PRO DEV
Software can not always modify the programs to operate with your
unusual arrangements. This system uses a lot of memory. Thus, if
you have large memory resident programs, there may not be enough
memory to properly operate the ProDev*MEMBER system.

Please send Regular Check, Money Order, Postal Order OR you can enter
your American Express, Master or Visa card number below along with your
signature. If you are outside the USA or Canada please obtain a check
from your bank in USA funds on a USA bank. You may find it easiest to
send USA Cash or an American Express Check. Canadian registrants can
submit their check using Canadian funds WITHOUT exchange rate
adjustments. If Canadians use a Credit Card the Credit Card Company
WILL apply the current exchange rate. Registrants outside the USA or
Canada should add an extra $5.00 USA equivalent to cover extra banking
and/or postage costs.

Vendor Encouragements And Restrictions
This document contains PRO DEV Software's message to Disk Copying and
Bulletin Board Services. User Groups may copy this disk as long as the
shareware registration process is properly explained to members.
First of all, thank you for carrying my Shareware software in your Disk
Copying Service catalog or on your Bulletin Board Service. You are a
vital link in the Shareware distribution process.
You MAY . . .
1. This on-disk letter authorizes you to include the enclosed
ProDev*MEMBER Version 1.09 disk of Shareware software in your
Shareware Cataloging and Disk Copying Service. This is a
non-exclusive authorization.
2. You may sell disks containing copies of this software as long as you
do NOT imply to your customers that this is "free" software. It is
best if your catalogs make it clear that this is Shareware software
that the end user must register with PRO DEV Software to continue
using beyond the evaluation stage. If you list the registration fees
in your catalog, DO NOT use words like "Donation", "Contribution", or
other such words. It is a REGISTRATION FEE or COST of $30.
3. If you are a Disk Copying or Bulletin Board Service and you obtained
this software from other than PRO DEV Software, you may not have the
latest version. You are encouraged to write or call PRO DEV Software
and ask for the latest version.

616-788-2243 (8:00-5:00 M-F Eastern Time) CompuServe PPN: 72617,1266
4. You may add your own files to this disk as long as none of them give
any impression that this Shareware software is "free".
You may not . . .
1. DO NOT remove any of the following files from the disk (or compressed
file if you are a BBS):
MEMBPROG.EXE MEMBDATA.EXE MEMBDOC.EXE PRINTERS.EXE INSTALL.EXE
LIST.COM VENDOR.DOC REGISTER.DOC README.DOC
LIST.COM is included on this disk with written permission from Vernon
Buerg and may NOT be removed or replaced with a different version.
2. If you are a Disk Copying Service, please do not further compress the
above files. Naturally, a BBS operator will compress the entire system
as required. If you are a User Group, Shareware registration education
should be part of your established proceedures.

Vendor Encouragements And Restrictions
3. You may NOT replace the MEMBDOC.EXE SCRNCHed documentation file with
the ASCII MEMBER.DOC file or another form of archiving, packing or
ziping. If you are a BBS, archive/pack/zip the MEMBDOC.EXE file along
with the other files WITHOUT first unSCRNCHing the MEMBDOC.EXE file.
This is because my INSTALL program expects the SCRNCHed file. The
same applies to the LHARCed MEMBPROG.EXE and MEMBDAT.EXE files.
4. If you are a Disk Copying or Bulletin Board Service that feels that
you JUST must add your own message to the end of my Copyrighted
documentation contained in the MEMBDOC.EXE file, send the text of your
message on a disk to PRO DEV Software and I will add it and reSCRNCH
the MEMBDOC.EXE file for you. You can also CIS Mail the text to
CompuServe PPN: 72617,1266. Please realize that you are placing a
burden on me to do this as the SCRNCH process takes my computer about
an hour to perform and you can add your messages in separate files a
lot easier.
I also encourage you to give this full featured system the write-up it
deserves in your catalog. The next page gives my "unbiased" {grin}
suggested catalog descriptions. I really get discouraged when I see
catalogs that just say "ProDev*MEMBER Church Membership system". It is
really a powerful, low registration fee system that powerful enough for
ANY sized church.
Now that I have gotten all of that legal stuff out of the way, let me tell
you what is in ProDev*MEMBER.
This system allows a church to track any number of members, non-members,
former members, shut-ins, visitors and affiliated missionaries. By using
a relationally linked child data base, information can be kept on zero to
ANY number of children per member. Complete Member/Child talent, duties,
teaching expertise and ANY other information can be stored as free-form
text allowing complete customization of this information. The program can
intelligently search and report on ANY desired information.
The church secretary can print single or all records as dozens of
different label runs with a variety of filters. Rotary Card File cards
can be printed on all or selected records.
Eleven different report selections with a variety of filters will meet the
demands of the entire church staff. Two of the report selections produce
3 different church directories. All label runs and reports can optionally
be printed to the printer, screen or to a disk file. The disk files can
be printed directly to the word processing sub-directory for easy import
into word processor documents or merge files.
The Givings or Offerings can rapidly be posted to a transaction file.
Even open plate and special funds! When the program totals match the
total funds collected, the transaction file is posted to a permanent
Giving data file. All or individual Quarterly, Annual (or any date range)
Statements can be printed such that they can fit any sized windowed
envelope. Version 1.09 raises categories of giving from 3 to 6.
