The Appleworks patch that has been floating around has quite a
few problems. This new patch was in a letter to the latest issue
of National Appleworks Users Group's newsletter. Hopefully,
enough people will subscribe because of this posting that they
will not sue me for copyright infringement. Get into BASIC and
set the prefix to Appleworks or whatever subdirectory that you
start Appleworks from. If you did not modify Appleworks with the
Pinpoint Accessories type BLOAD APLWORKS.SYSTEM,TSYS,A$2000 and
If you have installed Pinpoint then it's BLOAD
APLWORKS.SYSTEM,TSYS,A$2000,B$3500,L$2000 If you have
version 2.0 of Appleworks enter the following to get your clock
card to automatically enter the data:
POKE 14148,76 POKE 14149,238 POKE 14150,39
IF YOU HAVE VERSION 1.2 TYPE:
POKE 13518,76 POKE 13519,120 POKE 13520,37
THE FOLLOWING PATCHES SHOULD WORK FOR 1.1 AND 1.3
VERSION 1.1
POKE 13522,76 POKE 13523,124 POKE 13524,37
VERSION 1.3
POKE 13855,76 POKE 13856,201 POKE 13857,38
If you do not have Pinpoint installed then type BSAVE
APLWORKS.SYSTEM,TSYS,A$2000 If you do then type BSAVE
APLWORKS.SYSTEM,TSYS,A$2000,B$3500,L$2000 This is from a letter
sent in by Robert Oberholtzer Houston Texas
While entering this I noticed that it only deals with the time
and date. Here's the original patch from the Software touch
people. It makes no men tion of Pinpoint. BLOAD
APLWORKS.SYSTEM,TSYS,A$2000 For version 1.3 POKE 13193,44 to skip
the pause on startup and the original time and date patch for 1.3
POKE 13855,208 POKE 13856,19
AND FOR VERSION 2.0 POKE 14468,44 to skip the pause and POKE
14148,208 POKE 14149,19 for the old (and flawed) time and date
stamp. Ending, of course, with BSAVE APLWORKS.SYSTEM,TSYS,A$2000
I have not tried the second patch yet but intend to as I have so
much trouble with the first one.
