FOCHANGE.EXE:
============
This program will allow the T.A.G. SysOp to globally change selected File Owner
Names for one or more Users after each Users Name has been changed in the User
Editor.
USAGE:
=====
Step 1 - Enter "FOCHANGE" at the DOS Prompt.
Step 2 - Enter your "Main Data File Path" as listed in the
System Configuration Editor.
Step 3 - Enter your "Multi-user Data File Path" as listed in the
System Configuration Editor. If you are not running a
"Multi-node BBS", then enter the "Main Data File Path"
used in Step 2.
Note: The above paths are searched to locate your
FBOARDS.DAT and USER.LST and it's assummed that
they reside in the same directory. These paths
are also used to locate *.DIR files should you be
using the "@" or "`" in front of the filename in
the FBOARDS.DAT file.
Step 4 - Enter the "User #" of the User you want to change the
File Owner Name of in the *.DIR files.
Step 5 - Enter the Users "OLD" User Name extactly as it is in
the *.DIR files (case is not significant).
Step 6 - Repeat "Step 4" and "Step 5" for any File Owner Names you
wish to change. Press "D" for DONE when finished.
Note: All *.DIR files will be searched for the "OLD"
User Names entered in Step 5. Missing *.DIR files
will be indicated by 3 beeps and a statement that
says "Missing". Empty or *.DIR files with no
files in them will be indicated by a statement
that says "No Files". All matching "OLD" to "NEW"
User Names will be indicated by the file name
being displayed.

NOTES:
=====
FOCHANGE creates a file called "DELETE.ME" and "MULTIPLE.LST" on the drive
to assist it with certain features of the program. These files will be
erased before FOCHANGE exits back to DOS. If FOCHANGE exits with a "RUNTIME"
error, the "DELETE.ME" and "MULTIPLE.LST" file may be erased. If you do have
a problem running this program, don't hesitate to get in touch with us!
