The DOS section


This page so far comprises the following software:
  1. The apartment management program APPARTEM, which does the complete management of rental apartments, from keeping an address database of the clients, printing reservations and bills to computing the annual final account statement.
    APPARTEM is available in German, English and French.
  2. The vocabulary trainer TRAINING, an extremely flexible and powerful but at the same time easy to use vocabulary trainer.
  3. The XMS-unit, a Borland Turbo Pascal unit source code that enables you to use XMS memory in your own Pascal programs.

All programs in this section are available as ZIP archives and as ARJ archives.

Note 1:For some strange reason, GeoCities does not allow filenames to end with ".arj", therefore I had to rename all the ARJ archives before I could upload them to this page. Instead of ".arj" they now end ".bin" - i.e. are some not specified binary files. Just rename them back from ".bin" to ".arj" after you downloaded them - ren bla.bin bla.arj - and then proceed as described in the corresponding section.
Note 2:If you do not have "arj.exe", you can download it from here. With "arj.exe" it is the same thing again, though: ".exe" is not accepted as an extension, either, so rename "arj.bin" to "arj.exe" before executing it.
Note 3:Some browsers may not correctly download the archives (and "arj.exe") when just clicking the link with your left mouse button, but instead only display some jumbled garbage. In those cases, use your right mouse button to download the file.


APPARTEM, version 5.01

is a flexible all-round apartement management program, available in German, English and French.
NEW:The new version 5.01 fully supports all three phases of the Euro currency conversion. Further down this page you will also find the program APP_HWU which will switch APPARTEM from the local currency (DEM or FFR) to Euro, as will be neccessary in January 2002.
The apartement management program is SHAREWARE, not FreeWare like all the others on this site !
For a more detailed description and instructions as to how to proceed to install APPARTEM, go
here.
To avoid unnecessary net-load, please only download the archive containing the actual program ( German version: ZIP, ARJ ; English version: ZIP, ARJ ; French version: ZIP, ARJ ), once you have read the detailed instructions and found, that your computer fulfills the hard- and software requirements for APPARTEM.


APP_HWU (available in German only, if you need a translation please do not hesitate to contact me)

is a support-tool for APPARTEM. If you use APPARTEM in a country that takes part in the Euro, you will need to switch APPARTEM to Euro-currency sometime during early January 2002. This is what APP_HWU does for you. For a more detailed description and instructions as to how to use APP_HWU, go here.
Download APP_HWU.EXE. (Note 2, see above, applies here, too: The APP_HWU at geocities is named app_hwu.bin, so after downloading, you have to rename app_hwu.bin to app_hwu.exe before you can execute it.



TRAINING, version 3.2

is a flexible and powerful vocabulary trainer, which is nonetheless very easy to use.
Please note: Until recently, the version of TRAINING that was online here had been compiled with the uncorrected CRT-Unit of Turbo Pascal, causing it to abort on Computers with more than approximately 200MHz. This has been corrected, now.
So far, TRAINING is available only in German. Since it has rather little text, you should be able to use it, even if you do not understand German, though. If you do so & like it, let me know, I can easily make it available in English and/or French, too, if so desired.
The only "installation" that is required is to create a directory for TRAINING, copy the downloaded archive into it and unpack it. Thus there are no further detailed installation instructions for this program.

Download TRAINING (
ZIP, ARJ).

For the more daring users among you: The newest version, only alpha-tested so far: TRAINING v. 3.3 beta (The manual has not been updated yet, so please use the manual for version 3.2 and refer to the online-help (F1) for the changes.)



XMS, version 1.0

For a more detailed description and instructions as to how to use the XMS unit, please download the archive containing the source code (ZIP, ARJ), it contains comments that explain the usage.
