System Requirements
Any PC running Windows 95/98, or Windows NT 4.0 or later.
At least 8 MB RAM and 3 MB of free Hard Disk space.
A connection to the Internet.
Installing
- Create a directory to hold the program (recommended directory
name is SSChart but can be any name you wish).
- Download the program zip file into this directory.
- Unzip the file (download pkzip for this if you don't already
have it).
- Read the file "readme.rtf" or "readme.txt"
for further information.
- Run "sschart.exe" from this directory, the program
will complete the installation process the first time it is run.
(This includes creating subdirectories: {DATA, CONFIG, FAVORITE,
and HELP}, moving the appropriate files to these locations, and
recording the installation location.
A separate file "readme.rtf" or "readme.txt"
contains the detailed installation instructions for the software
as well as any last minutes changes. Please read this file carefully
before installing and running the software. (Both of these files
are identical except for the format, the rtf file contains more
formatting, and can be viewed with Wordpad, or Word).
The first time you run SSChart:
You will see the message at the right. This is normal,
the message informs you that the install directory has been set
to the directory you started sschart.exe from. Click OK to continue. |
 |
You will next see the Install License dialog informing you
that you are running an unregistered trial copy of SSChart. If
you click the Cancel button here, the program will continue
and still be fully functional for three days. You can return
to this dialog later by selecting {
Help | Install License } from the menu. If you register
the program, you will be sent a "trial key"
that will enable the program for 3 weeks. You can request your
trial key here, by filling in your "User Name"
(or company name), and "Email Address" and then
hitting the Request Trial Key button. This will contact
our server online, and it will respond by sending a trial key
to the email address you supplied. (We will not send any other
email, and will never disclose your email address to any other
parties).

Once you receive your license key back by email, you may rerun
this dialog by selecting { Help
| Install License } from the menu. Enter your key in the
Key field above and press the "Validate Key"
button.
When you exit the above dialog by hitting either [Request
Trial Key] or [Cancel], you can expect to see one last reminder
that the program expires soon. Just hit OK here. |

Uninstalling
If you followed the installation instructions, SSChart is
self uninstalling. Select { Help
| Uninstall SSChart Software } to complete the uninstall.
This procedure will attempt to delete all files and directories
that were created by the install process and remove registry
entries. This will leave only the original zip file and the eSSChart
executable in the installation directory and any user created
files. Any data files in the DATA directory created by your running
the program, and any favorites files in the FAVORITE directory
which you created will remain. You can manually delete these
and the zip file if you wish to completely remove the program
from your system. |
