Subscriber:

Subscriber is a freeware portable application written by Ian Campbell for use by any organisation that needs to keep lists of members and track subscriptions billed and received.

• Does not need any installation files or changes on the computer. This makes it suitable for installation on a USB drive and easily changed to a different computer.
• All data is stored in ASCII or plain text files. This means that it should not date in the forseeable future and can be edited with any text editor like Notepad.
• Has flexible field lengths and can be set up with up to 20 fields, of which 12 are customisable.
• Can produce user configured invoices, name tags, receipts and simple form letters.
• Forms can be printed or emailed to members.
• Easily configured to print labels of any size.
• Easily switched between organisations
• An addon is available to make it easy to record Seniornet course information for Federation reporting.

No research has been done on large numbers of records but these are the likely effects of increasing size.

• As all data is kept in memory while working there must be a limit to the number of records, but on modern computers this is very unlikely to be a problem.
• As it is a very simple database program it will slow down as the number of records increases, but it should be fine up to about 1,000 records.

This full version of the program is placed in the public domain and is free for any one to use. No responsibility is accepted for any negative consequences that might arise from its use.

To keep you up to date with developments the program will automatically email me with the organisation name, the email address and the number of people recorded periodically. No other data is forwarded.
