DatVac 1.1

DESCRIPTION
-----------
DatVac is a Windows based program that allows user to extract data from 
inspection reports. Currently the only machine supported is a Zeiss. The
program allows users to create a Config file which stores what information
is to be extracted from the report. When the user goes to extract the
data, they select the Process function. In this function, the user is asked
to supply a Config file (which indicates what data to extract from the report),
the name of the result file (a comma delimited file where the program will
store the extracted data), and the names of the Zeiss files to extract the
data from. There is also a utility to Adjust a section or all of the Address
record numbers in your config file. This will be useful if the inspection
report has some lines either added or deleted due to the addition or 
deletion of some features being measured.

The unregistered version of this program will only process the first 5 (five)
entries of a config file and only the first 5 (five) Zeiss files. Once you
register the program, the program will be unlocked with a registration key
and this limitation will be removed.
