INSTALLATION

After you run the SW_130.EXE self-extracting file, you find all of the 
installation files.  These files should be placed in the same temporary 
subdirectory (e.g. C:\TEMP).  If you would like to give someone else the 
ScoutWare setup files on diskette, then SW_130.EXE needs to be extracted 
using "-d" as the command line qualifier.  The command line from DOS is:

SW_130.EXE -d

This will cause the setup files to be unzipped into two subdirectories, 
DISK1 and DISK2.  We have done this to make it easier for you to distribute 
the software to other scouters.

Now you are ready to setup ScoutWare.  From the Windows Program Manager, 
select File and then Run from the pull-down menu.  On the command line type
C:\TEMP\SETUP.EXE and click OK.  The setup program will then do the rest.

UPGRADING FROM A PREVIOUS VERSION

You should be able to install each new version of the software over your old 
version without difficulty.  Each new version will recognize data files created
with previous versions, and perform the necessary conversion to the upgrade 
version.

The upgrade file, SWXXXXXX.exe, (XXXXXX is the month, day and year, so an 
upgrade released on 03/14/95 would be SW031495.EXE) contains only those files 
which have been changed since the last release.  This self-extracting executable 
cannot be used for a first-time installation.
