Installation NOTE: The v3.1 INI file is compatible with v3.0. However, some defaults have changed and you may consider deleting your previous INFOMILE.INI file before running the software for the first time to take advantage of the new defaults. The software can be installed in 2 ways:  The easiest way is to run the INSTALL program from the directory where it is located. This will create a directory on your hard disk, copy all necessary files and create a desktop folder.  A manual installation can also be done as long as all files required for program operation detailed above are present and located in the same directory. 5. Getting started Report format files are created by selecting New from the File menu. After selecting the communication program (See Support for obtaining the latest list of supported programs), typically only the Log File Path needs to be specified to locate the log file on the disk drive. Further information can be found in the online help. Pressing F1 will invoke context-sensitive help from most dialogs. Tips  Be sure logging is turned ON in the communication software.  The included bonus utility, InfoLog, can be used to create usage logs for communication software that does not. 6.
