Toggle your Endeavor Voyager between DEMO and production databases.
Please, review the license agreement: The use of this program is entirely at your own risk.

This small utility allows toggling Endeavor Voyager applications automatically between DEMO and production databases. This is like editing your "voyager.ini" file on-the-fly and changing port settings from "Port=7xxx" to "Port=8xxx" (case sensitive!) and vice versa before the actual start of the Voyager system application. This program presumes a version 2000.1.x installation to the default folder.

This program will create a folder on your desktop that includes all shortcuts necessary to run Voyager modules in production or DEMO mode.

Usage: wrCHpoA DEMO OPAC.EXE
where you can replace "DEMO" with your institution's 3-letter symbol to run OPAC.EXE in the production databases environment. You may change OPAC.EXE to any valid executable filename of the installed Voyager system. Make sure there is a <space> character between the mode and the application's filename (between DEMO and OPAC.EXE). This program is friendly: it will make a back-up copy of your "voyager.ini" file in "voyager.bak.ini" on the first run.

Review the properties of all the shortcuts as supplied for more assistance. If you desire you may integrate the shortcuts into your START MENU to standardize all clients in your institution.

For a utility to switch between 3 different production databases (DEMO, YOURS & OTHER) or other useful/library utilities contact the internet site below.

In order to change non-standard ports (or IP addresses & timeouts etc.), a configuration file must be provided, and will override the hard coded swap values/string "Port=7xxx" to "Port=8xxx".

Create a text file using NOTEPAD that contain one line for each value/string swap in following format:
the source value, followed by a "pipe" character "|" (=ASCII 124), followed by the target value/string. Entries are case-sensitive.

Save this file to the
wrCHpoA home folder, and call it: wrCHpoA.cfg. Blank lines, lines starting with the symbols ‘ : ; # * will be ignored, leading and trailing line spaces are removed. See following
example:

wrCHpoA.cfg:

; this line ignore, and all that start with either ‘ ; : # *
    
    7010|12310
   7020|12320
  7030|12330
 7040|12340
7050|7055
 Timeout=1800|Timeout=3600

The above configuration file will switch all occurrences of 7010 to 12310, 7020 to 12320,……., Timeout=1800 to Timeout=3600
