FAQ - Frequently Asked
Questions
Every time you run CCP, it checks today's date against its database
and lets you know if anything needs serviced on your car.
CCP will even warn you a month before your car tag
or drivers license is about to expire so you'll have plenty of time
to renew them before they expire.
And here's the best news of all, CCP will do this for up to
five cars at once!
CarCare comes on a single 3.5 inch 1.44 MB floppy disk. You place
the disk in your computer and run the program "SETUP.EXE" on the disk.
That program asks you where on your computer you'd like to put your CarCare
program and suggests the "CarCare" directory on the "C:" disk.
If you would like to put the program somewhere else, you can, but if
you don't feel like you know enough about operation your computer, you
can just let the SETUP program use the suggested location. After the SETUP
program finishes, you will find a CarCare icon in your Program Manager
in the CarCare group (Windows 3.x) or under the "Start" "Programs" "CarCare"
menu in Windows 95.
In the center of the CCP Main page will be the Function area. Look at the buttons on the right side of the page. When you click on the top button (Basic Car Info), then that function will be selected (see the arrow pointing at the button ) and the center area will be displaying the "Basic Car Information". Clicking the next button down (Gas Log) selects the Gasoline Logging function ( see the arrow move) and at the center of the page will be showing you the last several gas fill-ups and the miles associated with those fill-ups. It will also allow you to enter more gas fill-ups. If you had more than one car entered into the database, then there will be a button on the left side of the page for each of those cars (or motorcycle or whatever) and the arrow on the left side will be pointing at the currently selected car. You can swap back and forth between cars and functions in any way you wish.
What information does CCP track…..
In the License Function, CCP keeps track of the license
tag for each car separately and will remind you when the tag will be expiring
within the next month. CCP will also track the Drivers License Information
for
one person (The primary driver of the car) per car. When that person’s
license is going to expire within a month, CCP tells you about that,
also. CCP also keeps the cost of the tag for inclusion in the expense
reporting function. In the Insurance Function, CCP keeps track
of your automobile insurance policy information (company, agent, phone
number, policy number, etc. ) And will let you know when that policy is
about to expire within the next month. CCP keeps track of the
cost of the insurance policy also.
In the Maintenance Function, CCP has 6
separate categories of Maintenance data that it will keep track
of. CCP will track your Oil and Oil Filter changing dates
and expenses, your
Tire Rotate and Balance dates and expenses, your Front
End Alignment dates and expenses, your Tires replacement
dates and expenses, your Battery replacement dates and expenses,
and any Other Services that are done with dates and expenses.
As you enter each of these items, you are asked to select a time until
the maintenance is due to be done again. CCP assumes the traditional 1,000
miles of driving a month, so if you like to change your oil every 3,000
miles, you’d tell CCP to remind you in 3 months that it’s time to get
your oil changed again.
What if I goof up and enter something wrong?
No problem, CCP allows you complete access to your database and allows
you to change any information you’ve entered. Of course, you have to answer
the "do you really want to change this data?" question before CCP will
allow you to make the changes, but you do have that capability.
