All files, groups of files, or commonly used GEOS File Types can be searched for. Up to three Drives are accessible.  @Version 2.0 lets you edit the info "note". 000000000 When opened, InfoViewDA looks for  all the GEOS files on the current Drive---up to 85---and the first found is displayed in a mock-info box. Non-GEOS files are ignored. To view files forward or backward, version 2.0 requires you to click on the respective arrow Icon,  or press  C=< or  C=> (no shift required). Files will be displayed according to their order of placement on the Drive. To change the File Type to search for, click on the  @FILE  @TYPE menu box and select from among  @All Files ,  @Application Data ,  @Application ,  @Font ,  @Printer , or  @Desk  @Accessory . Up to 85 files per Type can be searched for.  @Search function The Search function offers you a powerful means of searching for files by asking for only a partial file name. Handy, too, when you can't remember the exact spellings of files want to see. Click of the Search Icon or press  @C=S. Enter the  Pinitial  letters of the file you are looking for, from one to sixteen characters. For example: if you wish to see a file called "MyData", enter the Search string "my"---or "MY", or "My"; the Search function is  @not case dependent.  All files that begin with the letters  @m-y  are searched for. For another example: if you are writing a novel, and the chapters are on different geoWrite files named "novel1", "novel2", "novel3", etc; enter the Search string "novel" and  all files that begin with the letters @ n-o-v-e-l  will be searched for.. Alpha-numeric and punctuation characters are valid. The  @"*" added to the Search string has been changed to a  @"-" . To look at files on another Drive, click on the Drive Icon, or press  @C=D . The File Type or Search string last entered will be searched for. This program has been tested in one, two, and three drive systems and in every DA-supportable GEOS application I could lay my hands on. Please note, there was  Psome  difficulty with GATEWAY. It had to do with opening InfoViewDA in Drive C, whereupon it  Pfroze up. Otherwise, it operated as described from other Drives. (I've been told by Users In the Know that GATEWAY still has a few  Pbugs. ) Despite that, I hope you find InfoViewDA useful.
