PCForm
The 'P'ick and 'C'lick Forms Generator
and Management System
Version 1.6
Quick Start Information
____________________________________________________________
You are probably anxious to get started, but there are a few
points worth mentioning.
1. If all else fails, read the PCForm Reference Manual.
a. The manual is easily printed by using the following
DOS command line entry.
COPY PCFORM.DOC PRN <ENTER>
b. Be sure your printer is turned on and properly
aligned for top of page. Page form feeds are
provided and the manual is 41 pages long.
2. PCForm is self installing.
a. The following DOS command line entry will begin the
installation process.
PCFORM INSTALL <ENTER>
b. You will be prompted for the install destination.
example: C:\PCFORM\PROGRAM
c. If the location given does not exist, PCForm will
create it for you.
3. SET your environment variable.
a. If PCForm is not in the current directory when
started, it will look for the following environment
variable to locate internal data. If this variable
is not present, you are asked to enter the location
of PCForm. To avoid this constant entry a line can
be added to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
SET PCFORM=location
b. Replace "location" with the drive and/or directory
where PCForm resides.
example: SET PCFORM=C:\PCFORM\PROGRAM
4. Establish your startup search path.
a. To avoid root directory clutter, PCForm will org-
anize your forms from an established drive and
directory. Use the menu option Setup/Path, within
PCForm, to create your own startup search path. The
initial default settings are the current drive and
the directory \PCFORM.
b. Use the menu option Setup/Save to make any new
settings available for the next use of PCForm.
5. Good luck and enjoy - from the folks at CareWare.
