- PocketIQ 1998-2000
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- ----------
-
- Released as shareware.
-
- Organizes your wine collection and wine notes.
-
-
- Installation:
- ------------
-
- If you are upgrading from Personal Wine Cabinet or a version of Wine
- Collection prior to 2.3 read the Upgrade section below.
-
-
- Installation from SIS file:
-
- 1) Execute the wine.sis file on your pc or Psion.
-
- 2) Choose C or D drive for the installation (make sure that there is enought
- disk space).
-
- 3) The program will install itself.
-
-
- Installation from ZIP file:
-
- 1) Make sure the \System folder is shown on your Series 5 system screen. If
- it's not, enable it in the 'Preferences' dialogue.
-
- 2) Using PsiWin copy the files PYTHIA.OPO, CABINET.OPO, EXPORT.OPO,
- PIQInfo.OPO, PIQInfo.RSC and PIQInfo.MBM to the folder \system\opl (you might
- have to create the folder)
-
- 3) Go into \System\Apps on C: or D: and make a new folder called "Wine"
-
- 4) Using PsiWin, copy the following files to the new \System\Apps\Wine folder:
- wine.app
- wine.aif
- wine.mbm
- wine.hlp
- ratings.dbf
-
- 4) Copy the file sysram1.opx in the folder \system\opx
-
- 5) A new icon should appear on your Extras bar
-
-
- Upgrade from Personal Wine Cabinet:
- --------
-
- To upgrade from Personal Wine Cabinet to Wine Collection:
-
- 1) Upgrade your Personal Wine Cabinet to version 1.3. Version 1.3 can be
- downloaded from http://www.PythiaInformation.com. Do not try to upgrade from
- any other version of Personal Wine Cabinet.
-
- 2) Make a complete export off all wines from Personal Wine Cabinet in List
- format (do not use Form format). Make sure that all seperators/ enclosers do
- not exist as part of your fields. A good choice of seperators/enclosers might
- be:
- Record seperator: @@@
- Field seperator: ###
- Field encloser: $$$
- Make sure that all fields are included in the export (that none of the fields
- have a blank sequence number).
- Make a note of the sequence numbers of all fields (this note will be used on
- step 5).
- To make sure that your tasting notes are not truncated use the following
- settings for notes:
- No of lines: 0
- Max line length: 9999
-
- 3) Rename the existing system\apps\wine directory (you might call it PWC).
- Keep this copy of the old files until the upgrade is complete.
-
- 4) Install Wine Collection as explained in the Install section.
-
- 5) Import the export file that you generated in 2). Make sure that the import
- format match the export format and that all fields have the same sequence
- numbers as they had during the export.
-
- 6) Be aware that the file "Ratings.dbf" contains the Area/Vintage ratings. If
- you maintained this file yourself you should be careful not to overwrite it
- when installing Wine Collection. If you did not maintain the Area/Vintage
- ratings yourself you should always use the newest version of the file.
- When upgrading from Personal Wine Cabinet to Wine Collection you can copy the
- "Ratings.dbf" from your Personal Wine Cabinet installation (the two programs
- use the same "Ratings.dbf" file structure).
-
- 7) The wine type descriptions are not included in the export file, so while
- importing all wine types will be created with a wine type description which
- is the same as the wine type code.
- After import you will have to change the wine type descriptions using
- Shift-Ctrl-T. All the wines are still imported with the correct wine type so
- will not have to update the individual wines.
-
- 8) Make sure that everything has been imported correctly.
-
- 9) Remove the Personal Wine Cabinet folder (system\apps\PWC).
-
-
- Upgrade from version prior to version 2.3:
- --------
-
- 1) Backup the .DBF and .INI files of all your Collection Suite applications.
-
- 2) Perform the installation as described above. Do NOT over write or remove
- the files with the extention .DBF or .INI.
-
- 3) Make sure that no Collection Suite application is being run.
-
- 4) Copy the CabUpg23.opo to any directory and execute it by double tapping on
- it's icon. The program will upgrade all your Collection Suite .DBF files.
-
- 5) Delete the CabUpg23.opo file.
-
- 6) All your Collection Suite applications are now upgraded to version 2.3.
- Note, you only need to perform this upgrade once. You should not try to
- upgrade each Collection Suite application individually.
-
-
- Problems
- --------
-
- 1. Read only files
-
- Some times files become read only while being installed. None of the files
- should be read only. If you get any errors like the program is unable to
- write information to your Psion go through the program files to see if some
- of them are read only.
-
- In the system-view you can open the file property window by selecting
- (highlighting) a file and pressing Ctrl-P. In the property window you can see
- and set/clear the read only checkbox.
-
- 2. Copying between C and D
-
- Be very careful when you move or copy applications between the C and D
- drives. It seems that the Psion is not correctly updated when applicaions are
- copied from C to D or vice versa.
-
- Always delete the application directory from one drive before reinstalling on
- the other drive.
-
- 3. Low on battery
-
- When starting up this program for the first time a lot of writing is done to
- the disk. If your machine is low on battery these writes can go wrong and
- turn the application files bad. This should only be an issue when running the
- application the first time.
-
- 4. Not enough memory
-
- This program needs up to 300 Kb of free memory on the C drive. If you try to
- run the program with less than 300 Kb of free memory on the C drive it may
- not behave as expected.

- Problems
- --------
-
- 1. Read only files
-
- Some times files become read only while being installed. None of the files
- should be read only. If you get any errors like the program is unable to
- write information to your Psion go through the program files to see if some
- of them are read only.
-
- In the system-view you can open the file property window by selecting
- (highlighting) a file and pressing Ctrl-P. In the property window you can see
- and set/clear the read only checkbox.
-
- 2. Copying between C and D
-
- Be very careful when you move or copy applications between the C and D
- drives. It seems that the Psion is not correctly updated when applicaions are
- copied from C to D or vice versa.
-
- Always delete the application directory from one drive before reinstalling on
- the other drive.
-
- 3. Low on battery
-
- When starting up this program for the first time a lot of writing is done to
- the disk. If your machine is low on battery these writes can go wrong and
- turn the application files bad. This should only be an issue when running the
- application the first time.
-
- 4. Not enough memory
-
- This program needs up to 300 Kb of free memory on the C drive. If you try to
- run the program with less than 300 Kb of free memory on the C drive it may
- not behave as expected.
