Club 100 Library - 415/939-1246 BBS 937-5039 NEWSLETTER, 932-8856 VOICE The program "AUTO.BAS" is designed to work with a CRDFIL template, and should be stored in your computer as AUTO.BA. Create a CRDFIL template under the name MILES.DO. AUTO.BA assumes that you will use the following field names in the template: DATE: MILES: GALS: COST: DESC: T. GALS: T. COST: MPG: COST/MILE: The last four fields are not filled in when you enter data; these are the fields that AUTO.BA will calculate. You need not know anything about programing to use the program. It looks for a file called "MILES.DO" and creates a file called "TEMP.DO while working. When it has updated the file, it will kill the old file, and rename TEMP.DO as MILES.DO. Users of the Tandy 200 will have to add a CLOSE: statement at the beginning of line 180, before the KILL statement, since the 200 cannot kill or rename any file that is still open. You will also need to change line 155. My car had 5200 miles when I purchased it. Substitute your beginning milage for that value. Use 0 for a new car. This was a quick-and-dirty program for my own needs, so I haven't done any error checking. If there is no file called "MILES.DO," you will simply get an error message and be kicked back into BASIC. I hope this is as useful and easy for you as it is for me.
