Upgrading From an Earlier Version:
----------------------------------
If you already have an earlier version installed on your computer,
we highly recommend that you UNinstall the earlier version before
installing this version. To uninstall the earlier version(s),
follow the directions below for your particular operating system:
Windows 3.xx:
Double click on the "uninstall" icon.
Windows 95:
Click on the "Start" button, select "Settings", then
"Control Panel". Double click on the "Add/Remove Programs"
icon, then select what you want to uninstall (for instance,
"Personal Law Library, CD1 v1.00") and click the
"Add/Remove" button.
Finally, when you are ready to begin the installation, instead of
entering just "SETUP" (as listed in the directions), you will be
entering "SETUP UPDATE", which will also update the files on your
hard drive that are used to record many of your answers to the
various questions asked by the program.
Program Functions:
------------------
Entering data:
Enter your name and information the same way each time you use
the program because Personal Law Library remembers the last items
of information you enter under your name. For example, if you
enter "Robert", and at a later time enter "Bob", the program will
read this as two different people.
The name you enter will be used throughout the program. If your
family members also use the program, each must enter his or her
name when they start the program or by selecting the "File" menu,
"Update User Information".
If you don't answer a question, that field will be replaced with
a blank line in the printed form.
Printing or Saving:
If you want to save a file and edit it in a word processing
program, then click the save button. Open your word processing
program and select .RTF (Rich Text Format) files. Your file will
be stored in the "DOCUMENT" directory, beneath the the location
you selected when you installed the Personal Law Library.
Help:
Each CD-ROM in the Personal Law Library offers a comprehensive
glossary of legal terms, written in understandable language. To
access this glossary, select the Glossary of Legal Terms from the
Help menu. Select the term you want from the list.
Laws, Statutes, and Rules
The Help menu offers a selection of laws and rules governing
topics from family and medicine to employment rights. To read or
print these documents, select Laws Statutes and Rules from the
Help menu. Select the law you want to display from the list.
Helpful Organizations:
The Help menu contains lists of organizations that offer
information, assistance, and services on the topics included in
Personal Law Library. If you need more information or other help
regarding a specific topic, contact one of the organizations
listed or consult your local telephone directory.
