Apostrophe v2.0.2
This readme is formatted for WordPad so if in MS Word it may look funny.
Conceptual, Continuity? :
Apostrophe is GUI based application written in MS Access providing a backup/restore method and data manipulation of MyTheatre's Channels.mdb file. Apostrophe uses a separate identical database structure to MyTheatre Channels.mdb. You can manipulate the data in either the Apostrophe or the MyTheatre database my selecting the appropriate 'Mode' either the Satellite or Channels form. Updating from Satellite form backups or restores entire Channels.mdb of MyTheatre. Updating from Channels form backups or restores your Favorites and Channels only.
Why is this important? After a re-scan, you loose your setup favorites from channels list. Should you un-install MyTheatre, Channels.mdb gets deleted completely. Should you be starting fresh, this is an easy way of deleting all them un-necessary satellites MyTheatre packages with. No need to look for necessary ini files for satellites automatically doing frequency calculations for DP LNB and giving the DP LNB user suggestions what DiSEqC/LOF/SW to use. No need to learn MS Access. All this can be accomplished with a few mouse clicks!
Install Information:
Package:
Apostrophe[2.0.2].mdb
Apostrophe.ico
theWB.gif (For Iconator see below)
Apostrophe-v2.0.2rtf - This document
Unzip all files from above in a location you can find easily. I recommend not installing in MyTheatre folder(s) to make sure if you uninstall MyTheatre that Apostrophe does not get deleted.
