- FIS INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
-
- Make a working copy of the original FIS diskette and put the original
- aside for backup. To make a working diskette: Enter DISKCOPY A: A:
- and follow instructions on the screen.
-
- FOR HARD DISKS:
-
- Insert the working diskette into drive A:, type A:AINSTALL and press
- Enter. After the installation is complete, select SYSTEM SETUP on
- the MAINTENANCE menu, enter your company information, and you are
- ready to print your own professional invoices. After terminating
- the program (EXIT), simply type FIS and press Enter to run the
- program again.
-
- To install from drive B:, type B:BINSTALL and press Enter. Then
- follow the remaining instructions above.
-
- NOTE: The normal installation procedure creates a subdirectory
- on the C: drive ( C:\FISYS ) and copies the program and
- help file into it. If this is not satisfactory, create a
- subdirectory on the disk drive of your choice and copy the
- program and help file into the new subdirectory.
-
- COPY A:FIS.* (desired full path name)
-
- The data files are created when the program is first run.
-
- FOR 1 DISKETTE DRIVE:
-
- Insert the working diskette, type FIS1 and press Enter to start the
- program. (You may delete the following files from the working
- diskette to free up additional space for data files: ?INSTALL.BAT,
- BIS.BAT, FIS2.BAT, README.*)
-
- FOR 2 DISKETTE DRIVES:
-
- Insert the working diskette into drive A:, and a formatted diskette
- to be used for the FIS data files into drive B:. Type FIS2 and
- press Enter to start the program.
-
- ------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- The DOS configuration file CONFIG.SYS is a file that allows you to
- set your computer's default configuration at startup time. The only
- setting that FIS may require to be changed is the FILES setting,
- which tells DOS the maximum number of files that may be open at a
- given time. This setting must be at least 20 (FILES=20) for FIS and
- many other programs. If FIS terminates with a message that there
- are too many files, you will need to set the FILES= command in the
- CONFIG.SYS file to at least 20. Refer to your DOS manual in the
- CONFIG.SYS section for instructions on how to set FILES=20.
