README.

In the zip file you will see there are three DEMO.. text files and three DEMO.. pdf
files.
The text files are three examples of data input formats you can use.

DEMO1:  This is a format that would have been used in the past and printed to 
        a mainframe line printer or a networked DOT Matrix type printer using 
        pre-printed lineflow paper.

DEMO1a:  This format uses a tag for each line. The tag ID indicates to EOM what the
         line format is. All lines with the same ID tag are formatted exactly the same.

DEMO1b:  This is similar to the format for DEMO1b except that the fields in each line
         are now delimited with a field delimiter character. Similar to an Excel CSV file.
         The delimiter character chosen here is ~ and it is less likely to be used in a 
         data field than the comma "," character.

The three pdf files are the reults of the three input files. As you can see the output
is the same. 

You can define your own input formats and then you would code EOM to handle your paticular
format. The only principal that is important, is that you know the incoming format of each
line so that you can map the data from that line on to the appropriate output fields on your 
form. There is no magic in programming. You must know what you are dealing with.

NOTE:  The electronic form used is a .wmf file. The file is named DEMO1.wmf. These can be 
produced by Window Power Point, Open Office Draw, Visio and a number of other drawing 
type packages.
