AutoSync v.91 - Michael Michon

---Introduction---
AutoSync is a small utility that simply loads IntelliSync for Avigo and starts a synchronization session.  It provides one click synchronization.  After IntelliSync is finished, it closes the IntelliSync.  Also, with the aid of an OS scheduler like Windows' Task Scheduler feature, one may plug his/her Avigo in before going to bed and have it automatically synced upon waking up, for example.

---Warnings---
Use this software at your own risk.  The author is not responsible for ANYTHING!  I don't have to tell you that free software like this is sometimes buggy and may do unintended damage to your system or data.

---Requirements---
With that said, here are some requirements for use of this software:

* IntelliSync for Avigo (standard or commercial version)
* IntelliSync set up for fully automatic operation: one that produces no user prompts.  (For instance, my IntelliSync is setup so that record deletions/modifications don't cause a prompt.  Conflicts, however still do, as they usually signify an actual need for user intervention).  Any prompts will obviously pause IntelliSync's execution until a user answers them (causing non-automatic execution).
* Visual Basic 6 runtimes (perhaps less recent versions will also work) - they can be downloaded from http://www.winfiles.com/apps/98/required.html
  (and optionally)
* Scheduler program (so that it will start automatically)

---Setup---
To use this program, you must first set up AutoSync.ini so that the line in the file that reads

	Path2ISync=C:\THE_PATH_HERE\synctipc.exe
	
reflects the actual location of IntelliSync's application file.  You may then run AutoSync.exe to verify that the application starts IntelliSync, initiates a sync, and exits the application.

If you have an international version of IntelliSync, you may edit the line in the file that reads

	ISyncTitleBar=IntelliSync for Avigo

and change "Intellisync for Avigo" to whatever the caption bar of your software says.  For instance, German IntelliSync users should use "Intellisync fr Avigo".  This feature has not been tested, but should work.  Make sure that the line reads PRECISELY as it does on the title bar, including capitalization!

If you would like unattended scheduled operation, you must configure your scheduler software to run AutoSync.exe at a specified time.  Included with Windows95/98 is the 'Scheduled Tasks' feature that can usually be found in 'My Computer'.  This is a decent scheduler and has quite a few options.  Detailing those options is beyond the scope of this readme, and help is provided in Windows' online help system.
