Installation Instructions:

Installation:
 =============
 You can run the patch program from either the dos prompt, or
from the Run
 option under the File menu in Program Manager.

 From the DOS prompt:
 -------------------
 1.  Insert the patch disk into your drive:


 2.  Change your current directory to the drive where you
inserted the disk.
     For example, if you put the disk in drive A, type a:\ to
make a:\ your
     current directory.


 3.  For the patch to work, you will need to tell the patch
program where your
     AppWare files are.

     To do this, run the patch program by typing PATCH followed
by the
     location of your AppWare\bin directory.

     For example, if you have AppWare installed at c:\AppWare and
your bin
     directory is c:\AppWare\bin, you would type PATCH
c:\AppWare\bin.


 From Windows:
 1.  Insert the patch disk into your drive:

 2.  Select the Run menu option under the File menu in Program
Manager.


 3.  For the patch to work, you will need to tell the patch
program where your
     AppWare files are.

     To do this, run the patch program by typing a:\PATCH
followed by the
     location of your AppWare\bin directory into the Command Line
box. (Note:
     if your disk is in a different drive than A:, type that
drive letter
     instead of a:).

     For example, if you have AppWare installed at c:\AppWare and
your bin
     directory is c:\AppWare\bin, you would type PATCH
c:\AppWare\bin into the
     Command Line box.
