Word Search Racer is a word puzzle game for windows based on the
popular game of word search. You may play without a time limit or
if you like a bit more adventure, you may play against the clock.
In addition to playing the game, you can also create new Racer
files for others to play. Word Search Racer allows YOU
to combine EDUCATION and entertainment!
The unregistered version of Word Search Racer provides several Word
Search Racer files for you to solve.
You have two options for registration. You may either register
and receive 50 more Racer files to solve along with a
registration number which will allow you to create your own
Racer files or, if you choose, you may register the software
as is, and receive your registration number allowing you
to save your own creations!
Word Search Racer Maker is the utility program that builds Racer files.
You can build Racer files to trade with other Word Search
Racer users, to introduce your kids to new vocabulary
or words that deal with a particular subject.
Note: Only the registered version of Word Search Racer Maker
will save the files you create.
How to set up the unregistered version:
=======================================
The zip file contains 12 files:
WSRACER.EXE - the executable file
WSRMAKER.EXE - Word Search Racer Maker executable
WSRACER.HLP - Word Search Racer Help File
COMMDLG.DLL - Windows common dialog dll
MSAFINX.DLL - Visual Basic dll required for timer
CMDIALOG.VBX - Visual Basic common dialog VBX
example1.wsr - Example Racer File
example2.wsr - Example Racer File
example3.wsr - Example Racer File
example4.wsr - Example Racer File
example5.wsr - Example Racer File
readme.txt - this file
If you do not currently have COMMDLG.DLL in your windows\system
directory, place this copy there. (You probably already have a copy
there since many windows applications use this file.)
If you do not currently have CMDIALOG.VBX in your windows\system
directory, place this copy there. If you have other Visual Basic
applications you may already have this file in place too.
You must also have a copy of VBRUN300.DLL in your windows/system
directory. This file is not included in the zip file because
it is generally available on many BBS. If you do not have
this file, download a copy and place it in your windows\system directory.
Next, create a directory such as C:\WSRACER and place the .exe files,
the .hlp file and the .wsr files there. To execute the application, double
click on the .exe file or select the file and choose Run
under the File menu item in File Manager. You may make a
program group and program items in Program Manager if you wish.
Please use the Help menu items for instructions on how to use the software.
Registration information is also contained in the Help file.
