If you are reading this you have downloading Mind Your Own Listings! 2007 - copyright 2000, 2007 Dennis Baggott and Sons.  

Mind Your Own Listings was designed to make it easier for individual real estate agents, or small offices, to maintain up to date information about their property listings.  MYOL 2007 is much different than the original version. When I initially started to revise MYOL, the main objective was to allow for some end user customization. I had an email from a person who was evaluating the original release but found that some of the terms I used were not the same as what he used - being from Australia.  One example was the fairly common phrase used in the US "half baths" which in "Oz" is called an "en suite".  MYOL 2007 provides for end user customization by editing a text file. By editing the changed.txt file and replacing the word or phrase from the same line in the original.exe file you can change the field labels.  These two files are compared when you run the program and your changes substituted wheneve possible.

However, as I cotinued to correspond with this gentleman (thanks, Peter) I spent more and more time improving this latest version and I hope many will find the efforts have resulted in a much improved program.  The interface has been improved and you are no longer limited to just .bmp files and a single photo per listing, you can now use any of several graphic formats and 3 image files can be associated with each listing.  Reporting features have been greatly improved with the ability to easily output reports to .pdf for easy emailing as an attachment.  A new end user report builder alows the creation of an almost endless variety of reports.

One of the changes I made was to change the backend database from .dbf (Microsoft Visual FoxPro) to .mdb (Microsoft Access database) which many will find makes it easier to create a web front end for MYOL 2007.  While I was at it, I included a sample of what is possible with the new version.  You will find this .zip file myol.zip contains two installation executable files - mysetup.exe should be run first.  This is the setup for the windows application and may be all many of you will need. The program and database will be installed to c:\myol2007.  If you next want to try the web interface you would execute mywebsetup.exe which will install files to c:\ineputb\wwwroot\listings.  You can see this web interface at http://www.dbandsons.com/listings 

Technical support is free, however, it is limited to email.  Write to me at dbandsons@aol.com with any questions you may have and I will try to get back to you promptly.  This program is multi user capable at no additional cost.  Pricing is per office, not per individual.  The original version has been sold at $99 per office, however, I believe Mind Your Own Listings 2007 is at least twice as good as the earlier version so I will be increasing the price to $249 shortly after this version is made available for download. This is a free version upgrade for registered users of the earlier version and version upgrades will continue to be free to licenced users.
