Aeris 3.0 provides advanced information processing capabilities that you
can't find anywhere else.

Colbert, WA - September 25, 1994 - Aeris version 3.0 provides visual
database, spreadsheet, file and communication processing that features
multiple State-Of-The-Art tools and capabilities integrated into ONE
package that you won't find anywhere else.

With Aeris, you can visually access and manipulate information from
distributed systems (ODBC, Sockets, XBASE, DBASE II, ASCII, EBCDIC, Print
Files, IEEE, Binary, Packed, Signed Display COBOL, Unix, and Mainframe)
and create files ready for use in your applications.

Simply Point & Click to define custom processes just one time, then
distribute those processes to your end users to run on a daily basis. And
because you can limit what an end user can see and do, your data will
remain secure enabling you to maintain administrative control. Aeris ties
together database, spreadsheet, application and communication software in
an efficient and secure manner without requiring a re-write or conversion.
Aeris gives you the information you want - on your own terms!

Since Aeris was designed with Windows95 in mind, we've committed to sending
all Aeris for Windows 3.0 customers a free upgrade to Aeris for
Windows95.

New Aeris 3.0 Features:

* Automatically generate complex file processes without programming. Fill
in the blanks on our forms and a custom, menu driven process is created
exactly to your specifications. To run the same process again, simply
click on a menu item It's that easy. It's also easy to distribute custom
processes to your end-users to run on a daily basis.

* Visually generate ODBC menu-driven processes. Extract data from any ODBC
data source to your PC for inclusion in you favorite applications,
databases, and spreadsheets without requiring a re-write or conversion.
Distribute these processes to-your users, so the next time they want to
run the same type of ODBC extract, they just Click their mouse!

* Feed XBASE Tables directly into ODBC Data Sources. Map XBASE fields to
ODBC fields and feed that data directly into ODBC data sources. Aeris will
generate a custom menu-driven ODBC feed, so the next time you just Point &
Click!

* Aeris supports a full implementation of ODBC, complete with the ability
to inquire on records; add, modify, or delete records, and read table or
field information, etc. Additionally, you can transparently use Aeris
high-level statements, and file modifiers (i.e., cut, translate, match,
etc.) with ODBC.

* Feed data transactions directly into and out of your applications with
Windows Sockets. Easily communicate and process application messages via
Sockets, moving beyond simple file transfers by feeding transactions
directly into and out a your applications. Also, if you are considering
writing a Sockets-based application, Aeris provides a quick way for you to
test out your application without forcing you to expend a significant
amount of resources.

* Send data to applications as Keystrokes or via DDE. Store or send
perfectly formatted messages (including IEEE formats) to DDE capable
applications or application windows, and extend the power of Aeris file
processing to them. From Aeries, a file processing script can communicate
with another DDE compatible application such as Microsoft's Excel c Access
in order to send commands, and read or write information to that
application. Optionally use the Send Keys to populate or update an
application that doesn't have an import facility.

* Receive data in exactly the format you require from hand-held scanners,
manufacturing devices, or electrical mete readers. Also, automate modem
communications with interactive systems such as GEIS and MCI Email with
Aeri Serial Communications.

* Share data between your Micro and Mainframe by converting mainframe
formatted files (including packed and binary field types) into comma
delimited files while performing EBCDIC to ASCII translation by field
type. In the same manner you can also translate PC formatted files to
Mainframe files. And after you've specified everything to Aeris, a custom
translate process will be generated for you. So the next time you want to
run the same process, you just Point & Click!

* Intelligent Duplicate Record Elimination by field or column enables you
to, for example, retain the 3 most recent records for each stock item
while writing older stock item records to a history file. Also, compare
files for uniqueness or duplication on a per field basis. If your database
is full of confusing duplicate entries, this menu-driven process is a
simple way to get rid of them, saving you both disk space and resources.

* Visually map new XBASE databases, complete with automatic field resizing
and type checking, into master XBASE databases without incurring
client/server overhead. Insert default field values for both required
fields and fields that do not exist in the master XBASE files, or truncate
if necessary. Go on to eliminate duplicate XBASE records by selected
fields (e.g., customer number) or by columns. And the next time you want
to re-run this process, just click on a menu item.

* Create whole new XBASE files from existing comma-delimited files that
include field names, sizes, types, etc. without doing any importing.
Re-run this operation again with just the click of your mouse! Also,
calculate and create new data fields from existing data fields including
XBASE, comma delimited, etc.

* Extract and Process data items you require from Print files. Extract
exactly the data you require and not extraneous data you must manually
remove later. The extraction process includes detail record parsing as
well as header and global text extraction. Best of all, Aeris will
generate a custom menu-driven extract process. So the next time you want
to run the same process, you just Point & Click. Aeris easily handles all
types of reports, and creates a comma delimited file that you can use
directly with other Aeris functions such as Sort, Remove Duplicates,
Convert to XBASE, Append to master XBASE table, etc.

* Choose from four different menu-driven Sort processes based on your exact
need. Simply supply the filename, highlight and select the keys you wish
to sort by and a custom sort process will be generated for that file. The
next time you want to run the same sorting process, you just click on a
menu item. For very large files, choose the disk-based Aeris SortMerge,
where the size of the file you're sorting is limited only by the size of
your disk.

* Extensive menu-driven Search and Process routines. Search across multiple
directories as you Find and Replace text, Find and Copy records to a new
file, Find and Delete records, Find and View text, and more. Limit
directory search levels and exclude specific sub-directories. Include or
exclude specific file extensions, date, time, or size ranges. Perform
wildcard searching for file names. Easily combine searches with other
Aeris processes (ODBC, DDE, XBASE, Sockets, serial communications,
cutting, sorting, etc.) for a complete information processing solution.

* View and interpret the value of each data type for the column or field
selected (i.e., integer, packed decimal, binary, etc.). This exciting
feature saves a tremendous amount of time when you receive unknown data
types from outside sources.

* Synchronized Batch Processing. Manage entire job flows and synchronize
related tasks with Aeris.
