AINTAINING CARD DATABASES
Cardiris is a comprehensive card database solution. The databases
you create or open in Cardiris can be merged or migrated with other
Cardiris databases, duplicated etc.
Opening and saving databases
Cardiris always opens the database that was last opened. Any
changes you make to a database are saved automatically. There is
no need to hit a Save button.
To open another database, click the Open command on the File
menu.
Creating and saving new databases
To create a new database, click the New command on the File
menu. A new database must be saved once by clicking the Save as
command on the File menu. After that, any changes you make are
saved automatically.
Compacting databases
You can compact your databases to reduce their file size to a
minimum. Compacting a database is useful when you removed
many cards from it.
To compact a database, click the corresponding command in the
File menu.
Tip: use low-resolution images only when you attach a picture to your cards!
(All data, including the images, are stored inside the database file.)
