This is a birthday reminder and a simple address book. Every address entry can be associated with a date (e.g. birthday of a person) and an individual pre-warning period. If you start the program when an entry reaches the pre-warning period a window pops up and reminds you for that.

• How to create a new database item:
  Fill out the fields in the lower panel. Then press Add to add the item to the database. (Press New to clean the fields from existing content.)
   
• How to view the content of an existing database item:
  Simply select the item in the list.
   
• How to modify an existing database item:
  Select the item in the list. Then modify the content of the fields in the lower panel. Press Edit to write the changes back to the database.

The controls in the upper panel will be locked/disabled if you modify the content of the fields in the lower panel. Press Cancel to discard the changes and to unlock/enable the controls.

If you want the program to remind you for a database item you must assign a date (e.g. 02/20/2002 or 2002-02-20) and a pre-warning period (e.g. 3 for 3 days before) to the item.

You must add a shortcut to the startup folder if you want the program to do a database check automaticly when the systems starts up (or at midnight). Then an alarm window pops up if the pre-warning period of an item is reached. Select the item "Create Startup Shortcut" in the menu "Edit" to create such a shortcut.
