Giveaway of the day — ModusDoc 7.4.336
ModusDoc 7.4.336 was available as a giveaway on June 26, 2023!
Universal data cataloger ModusDoc was designed for cataloging diverse data: documents, e-books, audio books, movies, photos and other files, hyperlinks, programs, folders and notes in a database for the purpose of gaining quick and convenient access to them.
Using ModusDoc, a database of documents can be created. Each document can contain up to 250 metadata!
You can scan a folder or an entire disk. ModusDoc create tree groups according to the structure of folders on the disk and the relevant records - links to files.
You can add any documents to ModusDoc database, including e-books, audio books, movies, photos and other files, shortcuts or folders, by simply dragging them with the mouse. You can drag hyperlinks, selected text, e-mail messages - ModusDoc cataloger will automatically create the respective records (hyperlinks or notes). Moreover, you can add all objects located in a folder by simply selecting the folder in the dialog!
Documents and other files can be stored directly in ModusDoc database or the database can store the hyperlinks to these documents/files.
ModusDoc data cataloger allows creating an unlimited number of databases. Each database can have individual configuration: have hidden or rearranged columns, added new ones of various types (symbolic, textual, numeric, logical, date, date and time).
Each ModusDoc database consists of a GROUPS and a RECORDS table. Groups are presented on two tabs, Index (linear structure) and Tree (hierarchical structure); the program generates the tree automatically!
The filtering (selection) tools located immediately above the group tabs and above each field of the records table allows locating required data quickly and conveniently.
A group can contain documents and other files (both embedded and bound, as hyperlinks), shortcuts to the applications that created these documents, hyperlinks to Internet resources related to documents and programs presented in the group, as well as folder shortcuts and notes.
Data entered into ModusDoc can be stored on computer local disks and removable media or in network folders alike.
A hyperlink (shortcut) to the same object (document, program, folder, …) can be presented in multiple groups simultaneously.

It seemed to install OK but under the Help menu it says 'Activating' and has said so for several minutes.

Paul Wright, The "Activation..." item should be inactive! Are you sure you have installed ModusDoc Giveaway?
Save | Cancel
In Help menu there is a greyed out entry with the text "Activating..." is the giveaway successfully activated or could it fall over at some point in the future when new activations are disallowed?
Save | Cancel
TK, The program is activated forever, if you do not install other versions on top.
Save | Cancel
Valery, so why is is stating "Activating..." ?
Save | Cancel
TK, This is special build (compilation). In it, this menu item is blocked (inactive).
Save | Cancel
Valery, I understand that it should be greyed out but surely it should say "Activated" and not the misleading "Activating..." leaving the end user confused as to if it is really fully activated or stalled in the process of activating and there is nothing the end user can do about it. Usually I'd expect this type of bug to be caught during internal Alpha or private Beta testing phase.

Valery, Also I note that the main executable is linked for NT 4.0 which means it should not be loadable under Windows 98 or any non-NT edition of windows. So "98" should be removed from system requirements should be removed.

Installed correctly on windows XP as I did not belive in marketing of shaddy corporation called M$ about better productivity. You can belive or not but on c2d@3 GHz with 3-4GB of RAM this OS is still usable.
At 1st. words of appretiation about 7.4.xxx version of software created after 2006, especially after 2015 or around time when the IDE vendor abandon the users and give them "better java a like" programming language.
At 2nd. Portable version should be added to giveaway, because I have to inspect software, and courios people will follow mine way.
At 3rd. The mscomctl.ocx installed (by setup) in Windows\System32 asking for troubles - portable version is organized better, but very bizzare in shortcut cmdline c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe x:/ModusDoc/ModusDocFiles/... - crazy - it should work by local PATH without drive letter.
At 4th. Font seetings changes size only for grid in rigth panel/window - does not touch the menu letter size, and control string size - it is bad.
At. 5th. The skins and color is XP era confabulation of end-user wish but the icons on UI needs 32x32 size and more colors. See AllMyNotes by Vladonai
At 6th. Database location is hardcoded in giveaway EXE or stored somewhere in system. I run md_giveaway and md_portable from pendrive and surprisingly they share that settings, but It should be independed. Running portable from pendrive on few PC simply gives a mess :D (with DB path)
Валерий, я очень ценю вашу работу с заброшенной IDE и написание чего-то полезного с помощью FTP-клиента. Я не уверен, что это сработает с 10-й или 11-й катастрофой, но я в восторге от вашей работы.

At 7th. The help file is a joke. I want to add custom string in Note column - like md5 sum for each scanned file on the drive - how to achieve this? Help is too basic to answer questions and doubts of more advenced user (advenced uses more that 10% of software functions available by the simple menu)

On a 4k monitor everything is extremely tiny; there should be a setting to specify font sizes and such.
Save | Cancel
Ray, There is font settings, but for me it only works in right window - menu Documents, Font settings... at the bottom of menu.
Save | Cancel
Ray, try using compatibility settings in the right click properties menu on the md.exe file.
TK
Save | Cancel
Ray, Has nothing to do with this software... dont know if you are using windows... but on windows machines you can hold "ctrl" button and use the scroll wheel on the mouse to 'zoom' in and out the size of the stuff in the windows.
Hope that helps some.

Installation falls over when/by trying to install "Microsoft Office Single Image 2010" (?)
Save | Cancel
cs, this Microsoft Office Single Image 2010 is a hoax. End-user nag screen. Mine installation went smooth without any error message. Are you sure your Operating System is stable, updated and fine-tuned?
Save | Cancel
cs, try mentioning the version and edition of windows you are trying to install it under when asking for help... I had no trouble under VIsta 32bit. I'm not putting it on my newer machines.

It is a good software, however, if you change HDDs or move data into storage inaccessible by this software, the whole hierarchy collapses. In an office environment, usually, some of d-base files are stored on a server or separate HDD that updates the records on a daily bases and it becomes a chore to keep this "modusdoc" up to date.

mike, I have read the answers and questions from the previous version!

Toby Fuller, always a good idea to do:-)
