Description
DataKeeper was designed for
keeping any kind of data, such as CD collection, car maintenance
log, password, credit card info, bank account info, friends¡¯
birthday etc. The idea is very simple: field labels are
changeable. If you tap on field label column, a popup list
will show up (Fig. 6). Then you can choose any field label
from the list. Thus you can turn DataKeeper into Address
Book, CD Collector, and Password Keeper etc. simply by changing
the field labels.
DataKeeper32 is an enhanced
version of DataKeeper with 32 fields and no built-in fields
labels and data type. It is more powerful and flexible,
and gives you more freedom compared with DataKeeper. You
can create up to 80 field labels and 20 data types. (DataKeeper
has only 16 fields and one note field. It has 14 built-in
data types and 47 built-in field labels. You can create
up to 10 data types and up to 32 field labels. Thus, you
will have total 24 data types and 79 filed labels plus one
note field.)
Like DataKeeper, DataKeeper32
uses blowfish encryption algorithm to secure your sensitive
data. You can also setup a password to protect your data.
Once you setup a password, you need provide password to
login. If you forget the password, you will no longer be
able to access your data and you have to delete the password.
To do so, encrypted data or all of your data will be lost.
Before using DataKeeper32,
I suggest you download DataKeeper and play it, since it
is easier to use. Thus, you will better understand how to
use DataKeeper32.

How to use
For detail information about
how to use DataKeeper and DataKeeper32, please read DataKeeper.doc.
Here highlights the difference between DataKeeper32 and
DataKeeper. Since DataKeeper32 has no built-in field label
and data type, you need to create field label and data type
and setup default field labels for each data type you created.
- Create You Own Field
Label:
There are two ways to do it. One, select ¡°Create field label¡±
from ¡°Option¡± menu shown in Fig. 1; two, in ¡°Date Edit¡±
screen, tap on any field label, and then click ¡°Add field
label¡¡± in the popup list shown in Fig. 2. You can create
up to 80 field labels. These labels will appear on a popup
in the "Data Edit" screen (Fig. 2). If the field
label contains ¡°date¡±, ¡°birthday¡±, or ¡°since¡±, then the
field is a date type field, when you tap on such field in
¡°Edit Data¡± screen, the Date pickup screen appears; if the
field label contains ¡°time¡±, it is a time type field. When
you tap on the field in ¡°Edit Data¡± screen, the Time pickup
screen appears.
- Create You Own Data Type
(Fig. 3):
Similarly, there are two ways to do it. One, select ¡°Create
data type¡± from ¡°Options¡± menu shown in Fig. 1; two, click
¡°Add Data Type ¡¡± in the ¡°Choose Data Type¡± screen shown
in Fig. 4. You can create up to 20 data types. These data
types will be available on "Choose Data Type"
screen (Fig. 4). When you tap on "Other" check
box, a popup list will appear and list all of the data types
you created here.
- Change Default Field
Label:
If you want to change the field label displayed on ¡°Data
Edit¡± and ¡°Data View¡± screen, you can go to ¡°Change default
field label¡± screen (Fig. 5) by selecting ¡°Chang field label¡±
from ¡°Option¡± menu shown in Fig. 1. Select the data type
and then change the field label. The default field labels
you select here are used in Edit Screen when you create
a new record.
(Fig. 5)
- Create Category:
If you want a new record is automatically set to be a given
category, you need create corresponding categories. For
example, if you create a data type called ¡°CD Collection¡±,
when you create a new CD Collection record, the category
of this record will be set to be CD Collection if you already
create a category called ¡°CD Collection¡±, otherwise it will
be set to be ¡°Unfile¡±.
