AFD Postcode Shareware Version Released

July 27, 1995 -- Tring, Herts; Nildram Software have been appointed as
distributors for the shareware release of Postcode, by AFD Software Ltd.
Postcode is a system for looking up addresses from postcodes. It ships
with a DOS TSR version, a Windows version supporting DDE and direct
pasting into applications, plus programming interfaces for many popular
languages, such as Visual BASIC (for DOS or Windows), MS Access, Delphi,
Paradox and more.

Postcode has achieved great success since its launch, mainly due to the
easy-to-use interface, and the highly competitive pricing. In fact, in a
recent review in Computer Shopper, Steve Baxter called it "...the bargain
of the year." With the advent of the registered shareware version at just
stlg42.50 + VAT, Postcode takes another step towards providing a solution
that is within the financial grasp of even the smallest business.

UNIX Version

A UNIX version of Postcode is currently under joint development between
Nildram Software and AFD, and is expected to ship in early Autumn. Pricing
has yet to be announced, but will be set just as competitively as the DOS
and Windows version.
