Info Match Communications Inc., Canada's leading manufacturer of Internet 
consumer software is pleased to announce the release of version 1.2 of the 
NetMinder Internet Address Database for MS Windows. NetMinder is the only 
Internet address program for Windows that works with your terminal 
program to make the Internet easy. Previous versions of NetMinder are 
used by organizations such as Atomic Energy Canada Limited and the 
Nova Scotia Technology Network.

NetMinder is a Microsoft Windows program that allows the easy use, 
storage and manipulation of hard to remember Internet or other network 
addresses. NetMinder lets you enter these addresses into its database either 
by manually entering them, or by using the Windows cut and paste functions 
to "cut" them from your Windows compatible terminal screen and "pasting" 
them right into the NetMinder entry screen.

One way to think of what NetMinder does is to view it as an electronic address 
book. You could use it to record E-Mail addresses and then use it's 
search capabilities to find a specific name. Or perhaps for example, you 
might want to list everyone who has the domain .edu in their address. 
NetMinder stores more than just E-Mail addresses, it is specifically 
configured for Telnet, FTP, WAIS or any other conceivable network category.

While the "Address Book" analogy for NetMinder is in some respects true, 
NetMinder is far from being just another address book program. NetMinder 
is a powerful database program that can create an unlimited number of 
different databases, each containing many thousands of entries. NetMinder 
not only has the capability to record network information for each entry, 
but external information such as postal addresses and memos as well. 
NetMinder stores its information in a standardized DBASE IV file format. This
makes it easy to take the information you have stored in NetMinder and use 
it in another program (such as Microsoft Access or Borland Paradox). Using 
this capability you could for example use Access to print postal mailing 
labels for the entries in your NetMinder database. 

NetMinder is completely compatible with your Windows network and other 
software such as Chameleon. Multiple instances of  NetMinder can be run, 
and databases can be exchanged amongst them or with any other users of 
NetMinder.
