Battalion Information System (BIS)

Compatibility
Currently the system works with CIS Release 4.x only. As new systems become available, either CIS or BIS, they will be compatible with previous version.

Installing
Use the link below to download the file. Run it. You will be prompted to choose the installation path. If you are planning on sharing this database over a network and have a network drive available, you can install the database there. The installation creates two files. The first is the database the self. The second is the help file. I strongly recommend that you read the manual, cover to cover. Most of the questions I get are already answered in the manual. If you have the paper, print the manual.

Upgrading
Use the Backup/Export button in your current release to create a current backup. Use the link below to download the file. Run it. You should install the files to the same folder that the previous version was stored in. During initial setup, use the Import button to import all the information from the backup disk. If you get ANY errors, please email me. I can't fix the problems if I don't know about them.

Download
I don't have one to download yet. I am still working on the first release.
