Ranger Database Update. I spent most of the rest of the day updating the download page of the Ranger Database Website found at the link below.
Several updates were made to the RRDistph.zip file and the GPH.zip file. The RRDistph.zip file has the ability to email to your list of Royal Ranger Commanders with just a few key strokes. You have the choice of sending a bunch of emails via the carbon copy feature (this is the fastest and if your ISP allows you to send enough at one time this works best..my ISP limits me to 33 carbon copies) the next way sends one email or file attachment to anyone on your list. As a Sectional Commander I send out Dist through Sectional reminders and flyers of upcoming RR events. I can send out a 150 pdf files in just a few minutes. This one feature works great. (One note in Outlook express under options security click on allow other programs to send mail other wise you will have to click it once for every time you send a message). I added the email feature to the address book and to the main Ranger Database file as well. The Gospel Publishing File has 1002 Royal Ranger Catalog records just as they are in the 2003 Royal Rangers Catalog. This will allow you to 1.record award 2. order materials and 3. then print off certificates with a single entry. I added a field to scan in the pictures of the items in the catalog but don't have the time for that right now. The order form creates a GPH look alike order form that you can email to who ever orders your materials. In my case I just send them straight to the Dist. Commander who fills our orders and by doing this it puts funds back in our own district. The items cost the same just the profit margin goes to our District. It is a good way to raise funds for your District. You can also print off a little label to stick on your bin doors in your RR office and I kept a index in the office as well. The new catalog has items broken down in catagories as well. Lots of new stuff. As always backup your data first! Just copy your old c:\rangers\rr to a new directory. These files can be downloaded as a package 42 meg in size or each file independently and then copy it into your c:\rangers\rr directory or where you have your ranger records placed. As always its free for the download. If you wish to have a CD with other utilities that self installs and does it all you can order one for $10.00 off of the site below. Gifts are appreciated as well. Lots of other changes as well but for now! Thats enough. Over 3000 downloads and Ranger Commanders from all over use it. Hope it benefits you as well.
