-
-
- INSTALLATION
- Execute INSTALL.EXE from within Windows. Install will create a sub-directory of your
- choice, copy all distribution files and create a Program Manager Group for WinCover if
- you desire. Requires VBRUN300.DLL, not included. May be obtained from Compuserve and
- most major BBS's.
-
- FIRST TIME USE
- Complete help for first time use is available by using the Balloon Help feature
- from the main Help menu or by pressing the F1 key anywhere from within the program.
-
-
- WHEN UPGRADING FROM WINCOVER 3.0 OR 3.1 (numbers in parenthesis are your old version
- number):
-
-
- 1> (3.0) Copy VBRUN300.DLL to your Windows System directory. VBRUN300.DLL
- is available from Compuserve, AOL and most BBS's.
-
- 2> You must place WinCover in a DIFFERENT directory than your current installation
- and then copy your old data and bitmap files to the new directory. These are the
- files to copy:
-
- *.log, *.db, *.bmp, *.fcs(3.1), * .fax(3.0), *.snd (3.1), *.dat(3.0)
-
- IF YOU RUN INSTALL TO THE SAME DIRECTORY AS YOUR OLD INSTALLATION, YOUR DATA FILES
- WILL BE OVERWRITTEN!
-
- 3> (3.0) RUN CONVERT.EXE IN THE NEW DIRECTORY to convert to the new Sender and Fax
- file formats. See the Help menu of CONVERT.EXE for further instructions. YOU
- MUST CONVERT YOUR OLD DATA TO USE THIS VERSION.
-
-
- **IF YOU ARE UPGRADING FROM VERSION 3.1 (not 3.1a through 3.1e)**
-
- Starting with version 3.1a there was a change of data sequencing in all .FCS
- (saved fax files). A bug in version 3.1 caused improper data sequencing in
- .FCS files if carriage returns were added to the notes section. This has been
- fixed in 3.1a or newer. Any .FCS files saved with version 3.1 will no longer be
- fully readable with 3.1a or newer with comments, date and notes entries out of
- sequence. The only way to recover these files is to manually re-sequence the
- data, which is actually quite easy. IF YOU MUST RECOVER THESE DATA FILES, CONTACT
- THE AUTHOR FOR INSTRUCTIONS.
-
-
- DISTRIBUTION
