DIMCALC2.ZIP contains a complete calculator and units converter for
dimensioned quantities. For example, It lets you add "x miles per
hour" with "y feet per minute" and see the answer as "z meters per
second". It is flexible, comes with hundreds of standard units, and
contains extensive help information.
The program runs under MS Windows 3.1, and requires the Visual Basic
run-time dynamic link library file VBRUN300.DLL
The following files are included:
DIMCALC.EXE main program
DIMCALC.HLP extensive windows help file
DIMCALC.DEF text file of standard units defined by author
DIMCALC.DAT compiled version of DIMCALC.DEF (loads faster)
DIMCALC.USR text file for you to define your additional units
README.TXT this file
You also need the following, available on the internet, or from any
shareware source. In fact you probably already have it:
VBRUN300.DLL subroutine library used by all visual basic V.3 programs
The files DIMCALC.* must all be placed in one directory.
The subroutine file VBRUN300.DLL can be in the same directory, but it
is best put in the ...\WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory. (One copy serves all.)
This program is placed in the public domain by George W. Hart, 1995.
The most recent update can be had by anonymous FTP in the directory:
