Thank you for your interest in WinFlash!!

You will find this program to be extremely helpful in memorizing
scholastic or professional material.  Its multi-media graphic 
and sound capabilities also make it easy to create your own 
trivia-style games for fun!

While WinFlash is very easy to use, I'd still recommend a quick
look at the on-line Help before "jumping in".  I hope you'll
find WinFlash both useful and enjoyable!

Thank You,

Dick Bryant

To install WinFlash v3.1 starting with only a copy of

	3.  UnZip the file using PKUnZip or other "UNZIPper".  
        This should produce the files listed above.
	4.  Run SETUPWF.EXE from Windows.  This will take you 
        through the procedure of installing WinFlash v3.1

	5.  You may delete all of the files in the temporary 
        directory from your hard disk after completing the 
        installation process, but remember to save a copy of 
        FLASH_31.ZIP on a floppy disk for friends who may 
	want to try WinFlash v3.1.
