Setting up Gemsoft Treasure on a Network

This section is intended for Network Administrators or persons with a fundamental understanding of networks and networking concepts.

The section assumes you understand the basic operation of Windows and that Windows 95/98/2000 or NT is installed on your computer. That you know how to navigate the Windows menu system, and copy and edit plain text files using utilities such as Notepad.

A network adapter card and local area network (LAN) connection is installed and working properly on at least two computers.

To configure Gemsoft Treasure for use on a network:

Install the Gemsoft Treasure software on all the computers on the network that will be sharing data, including the server.
Designate one of the computers as the "server" (the remaining computer(s) will be designated as "clients"), it doesn't matter which computer, but it should be the computer with the fastest processor, most memory and most disk space.
On the server, create a "Network Share" on the hard drive Gemsoft Treasure is installed on.
To do this:
a.    Start the Windows Explorer
b.    Select My Computer, then the Drive on which Gemsoft Treasure is installed (usually C:)
c.    Using the mouse, right click the Drive and then select "Sharing" from the Menu.
d.    Select "Share As" option and enter a name for the Share (full access is required for Gemsoft Treasure, do not set the Share to read only!)
On the remaining client computers, map a network drive to the share created on the server
To do this:
a.    Start the Windows Explorer
b.    From the menu, select Tools, then Map Network Drive
c.    Select a Drive letter from the drop down list (remember the letter you choose, you will need to know this later)
d.    Click the Path box, and then type the path to the resource you want. For example: \\computername\foldername (shared directory)
e.    Check the Reconnect at login option box and press OK
From the Windows Start Menu select Start then Run, and type Treasure.ini in the open text box and press enter
Edit following entries in the Treasure.ini to use the mapped drive letter from step 4.c. instead of the C: as shown below.
DataDir=C:\Treasure
ImageDir=C:\Treasure\ImageDir
ThumbNailDir=C:\Treasure\ThumbNailDir
CatalogDir=C:\Treasure\CatalogDir

For example: If the server is mapped to drive T: on the client the entries would look like:

DataDir=T:\Treasure
ImageDir=T:\Treasure\ImageDir
ThumbNailDir=T:\Treasure\ThumbNailDir
CatalogDir=T:\Treasure\CatalogDir

Do NOT change the APPDIR=C:\Treasure entry, leave it at its current setting unless instructed by Gem of The Net technical support

From the Notepad menu, select File and then Save and close Notepad
Repeat steps 4 to 7 for each client computer on the network

TIP: Gemsoft Treasure also supports Universal naming convention (UNC) in the Treasure.ini

UNC is a full Windows name of a resource on a network. It conforms to the \\servername\sharename syntax, where servername is the server�s name and sharename is the name of the shared resource. UNC names of directories or files can also include the directory path under the share name, with the following syntax:\\servername\sharename\directory\filename.

If this method is employed, then mapping a drive as described in step 4 is not required.

If the toolbar is not visible, click the View menu, and then click Toolbar.

To map to a resource you have used recently, click the arrow to the right of Path, and then click the resource you want. The previous ten paths are displayed.
In the Explorer, you can also click Map Network Drive on the Tools menu.
If you know the name of a computer but want to view its shared directories, type the computer name preceded by two backslashes (\\) in Path and then click OK. The name of the computer's first shared directory is added to Path and the computer's shared directories are displayed in Shared Directories. To connect to a different directory, select it in Shared Directories.

Printing Reports

Gemsoft Treasure has powerful reporting capabilities. Rather than have limited number of specific reports, Gemsoft Treasure uses a more flexible approach which allows the user to create reports based on any criteria in the databases in Gemsoft Treasure. The layout of the reports is fixed, but the contents, length and purpose of the report is controlled by the user.

The method for creating reports is exactly same for all the modules in Gemsoft Treasure.

For example to print an Inventory Status Report:

Press the Inventory button on the main menu. Press the button. Select the appropriate criteria from Selection window

To print all the items currently in stock enter >0 in the field, press OK.

Gemsoft Treasure will prompt to print a less detailed report. Enter Yes to print a simple inventory report which only shows the Item selling price. Press No to print a report with detailed product information including supplier and cost information.

The Preview window will then be shown. This may be all you need, since you can read the information you are looking for. If you wish to printout a copy of report use the buttons at the bottom of the print preview to select the pages to print.

Power Report Method ( ?, *, < , > and % Characters )
The Find function in Gemsoft Treasure is one of its most powerful features. Use special characters in the find function to search for groups of records.

All Wild Card searches begin with the "?" or "*" character.

Use the "?" at other places to specify that any character in that location should be included in the search results.

To search for words or letters embedded in longer sentences or words, such as something in the description, use the following method.
To find all the Items with the word "Silver" in the description enter and press OK

Use the % character to specify numeric fields between a range. To find all items between a price of $1000 and $2500 enter in the Tag field of the search window and press OK
