Mask User ID
Transfer Files
Delete Files
The Mask User ID function is used to hide the person’s ID number during
the card reader input. This is typically used at facilities which use the social
security number as the person’s ID number.
The File Transfer utility allows the user to copy files without exiting the
PCM-2 program. The user is prompted to enter a source file string and a
destination file string (wildcards are allowed in both strings). If the file
already exists in the destination file directory, the user will be prompted to
choose to overwrite the file or quit. In addition, if there is not enough space
on the destination drive, an “Insufficient Disk Space” message will be
posted. For example, to copy all the files in directory C:\PCM2 to a floppy
disk in drive A, enter the string “C:\PCM2\*.*” for the source string and
“A:\*.*” or “A:\” for the destination string.
The Delete Files utility allows the user to delete files without exiting the
PCM-2 program. The user is prompted to enter the name of the files to be
deleted (wildcards are allowed in the string). If the file does not exist, the
user will be notified to press the Escape key.
If a filename string of “*.*” is entered, you will be asked if you really want to
delete all the files in that directory. If “Yes” is selected, all the files in the
specified directory will be deleted; if “No” is selected, no files will be
deleted.
Note Exercise care when deleting files. The following files should never be
deleted:
PCM2.EXE
PCM2.OVR
AUTOEXEC.BAT
CONFIG.SYS
HIMEM.SYS
TRIP.CHR
COMMAND.COM
EGAVGA.BGI
Any file with the extension “.IMG”. ▲
