Gold-Fax for Windows V4.1 Release Information / Read Me File

Thank you for purchasing Gold-Fax for Windows.

This file includes additional information and corrections
that became available after the Gold-Fax for Windows manuals were
printed.

===============================================================================
Compressed Installation files

The files that end with a _ on the installation disk are compressed.  They can
be uncompressed manually using the Extract program on the installation disk.
Enter the following:
	Extract /U[:destination]  file
For example,
	Extract /U:C:\test	goldfax.ex_

Pathworks Client V5.0 Restrictions (VMS Server only)

Currently, Pathworks Client V5.0 does not support accessing an
indexted file on the VAX through a file service.  The current workaround
is to convert the file to a flat file format as decribed in the
"Reducing System Phonebook Delay on the PC" section below.

===============================================================================
Reducing System Phonebook Delay on the PC (VMS Server Only)

Gold-Fax for Windows users may experience a delay when accessing a 
Gold-Fax System Phonebook from the PC.  The delay varies depending on 
the size of the phonebook and the speed of the PC attempting to read 
it, and is due to a limitation of PATHWORKS' ability to open an 
indexed file on the VAX.

The following workaround will allow users to convert a Gold-Fax/VMS 
System Phonebook file to a sequential file format, allowing quicker 
access via PATHWORKS.  One drawback to the workaround, however, is 
that the converted phonebook file will not be accessible from 
Gold-Fax/VMS.  It will therefore be necessary to have two separate 
phonebooks -- one that is maintained from Gold-Fax/VMS, and another 
that has been converted for PC use.

To convert a system phonebook, login to a VMS account and type the following, 
replacing vmsphonebook.fnd with the VMS phonebook file name, and replacing 
pcphonebook.fnd with the desired name of the converted phonebook file:

    $ CONVERT/FDL=GOLDFAX$:PHONEBK_CVT.FDL  vmsphonebook.fnd  pcphonebook.fnd

You may wish to add this to your GOLDFAX_CLEANUP command procedure to 
automatically convert the system phonebook on a regular basis.  Refer 
to the Gold-Fax/VMS Installation and Manager's Guide for further 
information on the CLEANUP procedure.
