File Magic 5 Series

File Magic 5 Series was a comprehensive document management software suite from Westbrook Technologies that provided superior document-handling. File Magic operated as a multi-user system on a local area network (LAN) for up to 15 concurrent users.

File Magic used Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) architecture and Microsoft’s SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine (MSDE 2000) as the back-end database engine to provide an exceptional document-handling solution.

File Magic captured a wide variety of documents and associated data and organized them into a custom-designed structure. File Magic could capture documents from any source, such as scanned, faxed, and electronic files, including black and white, color, and common file types.

File Magic allowed end users to efficiently organize and index documents that are then stored on their choice of storage media. File Magic retrieved documents instantly for editing, annotating, and/or integrating into your current business applications. File Magic also enabled an organization to share or distribute documents via LAN, e-mail, fax, CD, or printed hard copy. Additional File Magic options included File Magic Office and CDExpress.

Perhaps you use an accounting software suite and are viewing an open item relating to an invoice presented to a customer. Supporting documents could be managed by File Magic 5 Series. By using some of the powerful integration tools - OLE, DDE, and OCX - the supporting documents would be simply one click away. Using elements of the accounting transaction such as the name of the customer, open item reference, customer number, item value and or date(s), the information would be passed to File Magic 5 series to initiate a query, retrieve the vital support document and present it to the screen as if inside the accounting application.

In addition to the basic stations, the File Magic suite of products also included options that expand the capability of a File Magic system through File Magic CDExpress and Office.
