Using ADDRSS with ADRS.DO
ADDRSS selects records from a
file named ADRS.DO, rather
than NOTE.DO. Other than
that, ADDRSS and SCHEDL
work the same.
For example, using TEXT, create
a file named ADRS.DO with
these records:
Rick S c h e l 1 : 2 1 4 / 9 2 5 - 7 9 9 3 : 453 Red
River, Dallas, TX, 75229-«
Ellen Dunlap:312/374-4822: 916
Orunmond, Chicago, IL, 65219-*
JoeShmou :2H/876-2222: 815 Maple,
Dallas, TX, 75219-*
Glenda Elliott : 8 1 7 / 8 2 4 - 3 3 8 5 : 7 1 6 A p e x ,
Ft. Uorth, TX, 87112*
As with NOTE.DO, it makes no
difference what format you use
for the records. However, by
enclosing telephone numbers in
colons (:), you will be able to
autodial these numbers using the
TELCOM program later in this
manual.
To find addresses, return to the
Main Menu and enter the
ADDRSS program. Then find:
TX, 214, and Joe Shmow.
Using LIST with other Text Files
You have learned that you can
use SCHEDL to select records
from NOTE.DO and ADDRSS
to select records from
ADRS.DO. Both are variations
of the Tandy 200 LIST
program—and LIST lets you
select records from any text file.
From the Main Menu, enter any
text file from which you want to
select records; for example, enter
the ORDERS.DO file that you
created in an earlier chapter.
After entering the text file, press
the List function key ((F4)).
At the top of the screen, you see
the name of your text file—in
this example, ORDERS.DO—and
can select records from this file.
A record, as you recall, is any
text—such as a word, line, or
paragraph—that ends with
(ENTER).
For this example, select all
records that have the word
"table". Type CED table
(ENTER). This causes LIST to
display these records:
maple tables
maple tables
oak tables
maple tables
oak tables

When finished listing records,
return to the text file by pressing
the Edit function key (CED).
Organizing Records
You can easily find information
in NOTE.DO and ADRS.DO if
the information in these files is
consistent. You may want to try
using symbols to tag
information.
