                           INSTALLATION/USE/TROUBLE SHOOTING

       ***DO NOT CREATE SEPARATE FOLDERS FOR EACH DISKETTE***

 Loading Procedure:
          1.  Create a folder called "Space Educators' Handbook." 
               (Throughout the remainder of these instructions the "Space 
               Educators' Handbook" will be referred to as the Handbook.)
          2.  Insert diskette one in the floppy drive port.
          3.  From the Mac pull down menu select "Edit" and click on the
               command "Select All."
          4.  Pull all the files from diskette one into the folder you have
               created.
          5.  Repeat the process (steps 2 through 4) for the remaining
               diskettes.
          6.  Click on each of the loaded files to expand all of them
               prior to using the Handbook.


                                                        USE 

          1.  Hypercard 1.2 does not permit printing of individual card
               fields, a useful feature of Hypercard 2.0.  If field printing
               is required use the Handbook with Hypercard 2.0.

          2.  The diskettes containing the Handbook are either Hi-Density
               or Double-Density depending on the type of Macintosh
               floppy disk drive that you will be using.  When ordering the
               Handbook, please specify the type of disk or the type 
               Macintosh on which the program will be used.

           3.  The Handbook provides an "Expander" program which is a
                creation of "Disk Doubler."  Though it can be provided to
                users of the Handbook, the compacting application "Disk
                Doubler" must be purchased from the manufacturer of the 
                "Disk Doubler" program.  For this reason, keep the original
                diskette files of the Handbook unexpanded and expand the
                files only after downloading them into a hard drive.  The
                program requires about 10 megabytes of free space in a
                Macintosh's hard drive (not including Hypercard).

            4.  The stacks are locked to prevent violations of copyrights
                 for copyrighted materials (art, narratives, etc.) which have
                 been used in the stacks.  However, entire stacks may be
                 freely copied as "public domain" material. 

                                            Trouble shooting

Prior to invoking the following trouble shooting procedures, familiarize yourself with Hypercard by reading materials received with your computer version or procured development kit of Hypercard.  If the original documents are not available, read the Hypercard "Help" stack using your computer display.  Many difficulties will quickly be solved by educating yourself in regards to Hypercard.

          1.  If problems remain, check your version of Hypercard.  It
               should be 1.2 or 2.0. (the Handbook runs on 2.0 though
               created in 1.2.).  Remember both the Hypercard Application
               and its Home must be resident in the same folder.  You can
               not mix Hypercard applications and their Homes.  Note
               the Handbook also has a file called "HOME CARD" in capital
               letters.  This is not to be mistaken for the Hypercard
               application Home stacks.

          2.  If both versions of Hypercard and their Home stacks are
               resident in the computer, difficulty may arise.  If so, save
               the application and Home of either one of the applications
               on a spare diskette then remove the application from the
               computer.  Note:  Though created in Hypercard 1.2, the
               Handbook runs equally well with Hypercard  2.0, 2.1, and
               other later versions of Hypercard.  Using Hypercard 2.1,
               a message may be displayed: "Where is button Text Arrows."
               This message is commonly displayed when using Hypercard
               1.2 created stacks with Hypercard 2.0 and can be cancelled.
               From the File Pull Down Menu at the top of the Macintosh
               screen, click on open file and open any of the Handbook
               stacks, and the program will be operational. 
           
          3.  Though Hypercard 2.0 will run the Handbook, a specially
               created "Search" button on the HOME CARD of the Handbook,
               located at the upper left works only with Hypercard 1.2.
               The button provides the capability to search through every
               stack of the Handbook for items entered in the Search
               message box after clicking the Search button.  It, like the 
               "Find" command, searches with the added capability of
               crossing stacks which "Find" does not possess.  A copy of
               Hypercard 1.2 is required for the "Search" button.  The
               information given in item 2 above is helpful when switching
               Hypercard applications to use the "Search" feature.  (The 
               "Search" button increments the search of all the stacks and
               their information narratives via the keyboard "Enter" key
               rather than the keyboard "Return" key used to increment 
               "Find" searches of information contained in an individual
               stack.)

          4.  Ask the friend who gave you the software for help.

          5.  If the above does not solve the difficulty or if expanding
               errors or disk copy errors are encountered, please call Jerry
              Woodfill at (713) 283-5364.
