I just installed your program, and I don't understand what it is supposed to do. Obviously it will allow a database of PDF files (or anything else that is entered into the grid). BUT I think that there are some tools in the system that ease the collection of file information -- but I don't understand what they are to do. Also the most obvious visual clues are unexplained. For example on the main grid, what do the columns A, I D, and S mean? What are Disktree, DBDiskTree, DBTree, and DBSearch do? Is the "DB" only created by manual entries of PDF file names? Why can't I open a PDF file? Why can I only import a CSV file? I am sure there are logical answers for my questions if only there were a better explanation of your program function other than the very short paragraph in the "readme" file. Thanks you.
