The hello world program is of absolutely no use.

Next time I'll increase the font size when I do a screen reshoot.
Being able to simply dump customer info to a screen is a
far better example to start with. Using plain text files to
start is easier than a data base. To make this program more
powerful is easy. For each record skipped put it to an output
file then the one you change put it out with changes. Then
put the rest of the file out to the secondary file. At the
end rename the 2nd file to the name of the first. A very powerful
and productive example.
I used this as a template over 500 times when doing Telephone
and cablesystem billing conversions. Very fast to implement and
understand.
This is the 2nd most useful program I have ever written.
