Baslogue ®   a basic catalogue system for tracking your items

Welcome to Baslogue^® (pronounced as "base log"), a basic catalogue system helping you manage your items.  It is designed to be easy to install and simple to run.

This documentation applies specifically to the use of the Baslogue^® Administration Wizard.  This wizard is only used in the multi-user enabled "Database" version of Baslogue^®.  It is installed with the "Server" component of Baslogue^®.  Using this wizard is essential in setting up Baslogue for first-use, including initialising your database and entering your license information.

You may press F1 on the keyboard from anywhere within the Baslogue^® Administration Wizard and you will be taken to a help page that is appropriate for where you are at the time.  If you press F1 while on the main screen, you will be taken to this page.
