- ** Upgrade Instructions For Owners of Previous Versions:
- Before installing this software, make sure you have your
- registration codes from the certificate that was mailed to you.
- You will need your codes to re-register your system for use
- with NoteWorthy Composer after installing this new version.
-
- We recommend that you retain your existing application files until
- after you have successfully installed and used this new version.
- By default, the setup procedure will install this new version in
- a directory different from the default directories used in previous
- versions of NoteWorthy Composer. Once you are satisfied with the
- performance of this new version, you should go ahead and remove
- the previous version, as described in its original help file. You

- new in this release prior to installing it.

- If you have received the NWC files in an archive such as a
- ZIP file, extract the files into either a temp directory on your
- hard drive, or onto a dedicated diskette.
-
- Run the SETUP application that is contained in this directory
- or diskette that you created. For example, if you extracted the
- application files into a disk in drive A:, then from the Program
- Manager you would select the Run command from the File menu, type
- A:\SETUP and press enter.
-
- Once SETUP starts executing, just follow the prompts. After the
- install is complete, an on-line context sensitive help file can
- guide you the rest of the way.
