Q&D Software Development is delighted to announce the release
of our latest version of WebForms, the popular WWW forms generator.
WebForms 2.0 lets you create your own WWW forms which you can link 
to your home page, allowing you to accept orders for your products,
conduct surveys, or anything else you can think of that requires a 
response from your users.  And WebForms requires no CGI!

New in version 2.0 -- 

*Direct Importing -- WebForms can now go directly to your POP3
 mail server to import your responses!

*Table support -- include HTML tables in your forms!

*Unlimited number of fields in response printouts!

*Much, much more!

If you're already familiar with WebForms, you can download the upgrade 
file from our Web site at    http://www.q-d.com.

	If you need more info, read on:

	 WebForms consists of two modules combined into one 
amazing program.
	The first module, called the WebForms Forms 
Generator enables you to design your forms in any way you 
like.  Using the WebForms Forms Generator module, you can 
create text areas along with many different types of 
controls including text fields, radio button groups,
check box groups, list boxes, graphic images, and hypertext 
links.  WebForms' easy point and click interface allows you 
to create as many controls as you like, having them appear 
in whatever order you like.  Once you've finished designing 
your form, just click the 'Complete' button and the WebForms 
Forms Generator goes to work.  In a matter of micro-seconds 
you have a professional looking WWW form which you can 
upload to your network server or Internet Service Provider 
(or wherever you keep your home page). You can create as 
many forms as you like for whatever purpose you like.  
Anyone who stops by your home page will be able to fill out 
the form and click the 'Submit' button, resulting in an 
encoded e-mail message sent to whatever e-mail address you
specified when creating the form!  Which brings us to...
	The second module, called the WebForms Response 
Reader, reads the responses received from any WebForms Form. 
All you need to do is tell WebForms your e-mail address, and
WebForms will call your existing winsock, connect to your POP3 mail
server, and import your messages into its database.  (If you don't
have a POP3 mail server you can save each message to your hard disk 
as a plain ASCII text file and import from there.)  There is no 
need to 'clean' the text file by removing any addressing 
information, since the WebForms Response Reader is intelligent 
enough to sift through the text of each message and pick out 
what it needs.  The WebForms Response Reader can even tell
which WebForms Form each message is responding to!  
This powerful database feature allows you to simply click on 
the name of the form for which you would like to read responses, 
and presents these responses in a clear, concise, scrollable table 
view.  You can even select whether to view New messages, Old 
messages, or All messages.
	Most programs of this type are written by electronic
publishing companies for their own use.  They then charge 
YOU for their services, forcing you to pay more each time 
you want to make the littlest changes to your form.  With 
WebForms, YOU are finally in control. 

	WebForms is brought to you by Q&D Software Development,
creators of WebMania, WinBrowse, and Dear Diary, among other 
popular shareware programs.  To download any of our programs, 
or to view our catalog, we invite you to visit our web site
at    http://www.q-d.com.
