        DIGITAL Visual Batch  
        The Premier Enterprise Job Scheduler for the  Windows NT Environment 
        Automated job scheduling and processes save time and computer
        resources, enabling customers to take full advantage of their distributed computing
        environment.   DIGITAL Visual Batch reduces labor costs  by
        automating repetitive tasks, freeing staff to manage more productive work.   
         
        Advanced Job Scheduling   
        DIGITAL Visual Batch offers very sophisticated scheduling capabilities,
        giving you flexible control over your computing tasks and resources:    
          - Ability to set up and manage all scheduling centrally  
 
          - Extensive scheduling parameters - for example, run everyday; run Monday,
            Wednesday, and Friday only; run last day of the month; run 3/15/98. 
 
          - Ability to set up complex dependencies between processes, so that one
            job doesn't launch until another has finished, or until some other condition has been met. 
 
          - Provides unlimited scheduling of jobs, important for enterprise
            environments 
 
          - Allows queuing of  jobs on assigned machines, or to run them on the
            first available machine

        Elegant Graphical User Interface  DIGITAL Visual Batch adds
        two very useful visual components to its advanced job scheduling technology -- 
        Visual Coordinator and Visual Batch Script.  Visual Coordinator provides a visual
        drag and drop interface allowing users to quickly and efficiently create, customize and
        schedule jobs. Once created, elements such as calendars, machine assignments, and
        notifications can be reused by simply dragging and dropping to another job.  
        For creating new jobs, Visual Batch Script provides an object oriented development
        environment that is easier and more powerful than developing batch jobs under MS-DOS.  
         
        DIGITAL Visual Batch:   
        Optimizes system resources: process scheduler provides
        centralized control of jobs and resources    
        Reduces time and training: elegant easy-to-use visual Interface for
        job scheduling and job scripting    
        Integrates fully with Windows NT: Tested with BackOffice, and
