The next meeting of the Southern California OS/2 User Group (SCOUG)
will be next Saturday, Feb. 19, at 9:00 AM PST.

NOTE: We have a new meeting location: we will be meeting at Eastside
Christian Schools (Heritage Campus) in Anaheim at 2528 W. La Palma
Ave.

Exclusive! New Product Launch at SCOUG!

Are you tired of writing your passwords on yellow sticky notes or
using the same password for everything so you don't forget? Would you
like a secure place to keep all your passwords and secrets? Come to
the next SCOUG meeting for the ultimate solution, as IDK unveils
KeyRing/2.

KeyRing/2 acts like an impregnable safe filled with all your
passwords. Only you can open that safe with a master password.
KeyRing/2 has a number of sophisticated features that SCOUG members
will be able to see when developer Kevin McCoy demos the new product
at the launch.

The KeyRing/2 product announcement was published on WarpCast on Feb.
4 at http://www.os2ss.com/warpcast/wc4783.html.

After the presentation, we'll have Q&A to help you with your
questions/ problems, and then a raffle. After a short break, then the
Saturday SIG meetings:

Programming SIG: In January, Steven Levine proposed a multi-month
programming project of updating an "abandoned" OS/2 freeware or
share- ware application (with the approval of the program's author,
of course). Toward that end, this month the SIG will consider several
candidate applications for this "Adopt an App" project.

In addition to discussing the SIG's "Adopt an App" project, we've
invited the meeting's main speaker, Kevin McCoy of IDK, Inc., to hang
around for the Programming SIG. Kevin will discuss how VX-REXX DLL's
written in Virtual Pascal/2 were used in the development of their new
product, KeyRing/2. He'll also share his experience with general
development issues of REXX DLL's.

General Interest Group: TBA, but see
http://www.scoug.com/gig/index.html to see as to what to expect in
the coming months.

Monday, February 21, 7 PM PST meetings at Eastside Christian Schools
(Heritage Campus):

The OS/2 Help Desk will have volunteers to give you hands-on
assistance solving your hardware and software problems.

The Networking SIG will be meeting at the same time/place as the Help
Desk in the new computer lab. If they haven't finished yet, they'll
continue setting up a new network. Come help and find out what all it
takes. (For further information, go to

Thursday, February 24, 7 PM PST meeting at Eastside Christian Schools
(Heritage Campus):

The Sundial SIG will meet in the computer lab. In January, they got a
look at techniques used to produce SCOUG's monthly newsletter, OS/2
For You. Next, they'll see what's involved using templates, graphics,
varied width columns, fixed size text areas, footers, and more to
create a polished newsletter.


How to get to Eastside Christian Schools (Heritage Campus):

The Eastside Christian School (Heritage Campus) in Anaheim is at 2528

office building close to La Palma Ave. with the address of 2528 up
