If a .BAK already exists, the file is renamed with a .SAV extension. If you need to conserve disk space, you can prevent askSam from creating .SAV files in the Global Preferences. Progress of packing will display on your screen. Features Of course the strongest feature of askSam is its ability to collect information from numerous sources and in a wide variety of formats. It has a special mode for entering structured data, supports all my True Type fonts, allows me to import graphics, do drag and drop editing, and when I create a report, I can create a header, a footer, and number the pages.
Searches are powerful.
You can find any word or any phrase regardless of fields. Methods of searching can be wildcards, boolean, proximity, numeric, date, fuzzy, case sensitive, and search through multipe databases. Hypertext links can be to bookmarks or to other files and they can be exported to HTML documents. Reports generated are pre-defined or you can create your own with drag and drop, sorting, grouping fields, and more. You can include videos and sound.
