4th ICPC abstracts available
----------------------------
ProCOR, the electronic conference on Emerging Cardiovascular Diseases in
Developing Countries, is very pleased to announce that the abstracts from
the 4th International Conference on Preventive Cardiology (4th ICPC; June
29-July 3, 1997, Montreal, Canada) will be made available through special
agreement with the publisher on the World Wide Web and through e-mail.
Please look for the abstracts on July 1, while the conference is still in
session. You may find them one of two ways:
1. If you have direct Internet access, you can find the 4th ICPC by
directing your browser to:
http://www.healthnet.org/programs/procor/icpc
2. If you have only e-mail, you can use a tool named "GetWeb" (which
allows you to retrieve the text content of Web pages) to access the
abstracts by:
a) Preparing a message addressed to: getweb@usa.healthnet.org
b) In the text of the message, type:
begin
search procor <keyword(s)>
end
c) Send the message.
You will then receive an e-mail message back containing the titles of
abstracts and other documents available at the ProCOR Web site which match
the keywords you specified. To retrieve the text of selected abstracts/
documents, please read the following.
At the end of each title, you will see a number in square brackets, for
example, [2], which is the "GetWeb reference number". If you would like a
certain title, simply look up the reference number, then look to the end of
the message where you should see a list of reference numbers each with a
URL (Uniform Resource Locator or address of a Web document) next to it.
Now copy the URL into a new e-mail message with the following format:
begin
GET URL
end
--------
For example,
begin
GET http://www.healthnet.org/programs/procor/icpc/A-1.html
end
--------
Now send the message to getweb@usa.healthnet.org
