WELCOME TO CUSGEN! This file contains the following information: 1) Purpose 2) Usage 3) Requirements 4) Registration reminder screen 5) Disclaimer 6) Packing List 7) Installation Instructions 8) Support Information 9) Licensing agreement 10) Order Form Purpose: CusGen is a tool for Visual Basic 2.0 programmers to package their application and generate a professional custom installation program that they can distribute to install their application on any PC. Usage: A VB programmer starts CusGen and enters specific information of their application, such as how many executable files, dll's, how much disk space is needed, the title of the application, etc... The magic of CusGen then commences, the programmer hits the Translate button, and viola, a text file is created with VB code custom to the application. This text file, "CUSTOM.TXT", is then used by a Visual Basic project called "SETUP.MAK". The programmer starts VB 2.0 and opens the project "SETUP.MAK" and loads the text file "CUSTOM.TXT" into the LOAD property of "SETUP1.FRM". An executable file called, "SETUP.EXE" can then be compiled. That's it, the programmer can then distribute the executable file along with the application's needed files and the "SETUPKIT.DLL" of this diskette to setup their application on any PC. Requirements: This product requires Visual Basic 2.0 to generate the setup .EXE file. REGISTRATION REMINDERS Unlicensed copies of CUSGEN are 100% fully functional.
