Needed Files
•	<comctl32.dll>
This file is from (© - ®) Microsoft and is needed to run the application, when you get the error that you have a version smaller than the one that is needed then you will have to follow these steps:
•	Reboot your pc in DOS mode.
•	Copy the file Comctl32.dll (new version) to the directory Windows\System.
•	Start windows.
•	It should now work.
The file can be found at the site of Microsoft or you can just search the internet for Comctl32.dll and find many links. The file is not included to save downloading time because most people have the good version.
•	<hhupd.exe>
If you have one of the first versions of Windows, then the Compiled HTML is not included.
Compiled HTML Help is the new help-standard from Microsoft that replaces the HLP-files.
To install Compiled Html Help you need to download this file from Microsoft at the location:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/author/htmlhelp/localize.asp
If the link is broken, just search the Internet for hhupd.exe and you will find lots of links to this file.

3.01	Fixed problems with the Options Dialog, sometimes gave a crash.
Changed maximum input of Timed Dialog to 20 secs due to crash in when time was longer than 20secs. 
Fixed a check that looked if the date set was lower than current date, but failed to work when the dates where the same. 
Fixed some spelling errors. 
Date-control has no dropdown box anymore it’s now an up/down control. (Date was not correctly
 	updated the first time on activation, when the dropdown box was closed it was set to the current date.)
Fixed problem that AutoExit would not start up, without ever showing the application, this was caused by the time separator, usually this is ‘:’ but sometimes ‘.’ this caused a crash, now all separators are supported.
3.02	Added functionality to stop the Explorer process prior to shutdown on Windows 95/98, this to avoid that sometimes the computer hung on the exit screen.
Fixed problem that you first had to show the main dialog to start up the Network Connection.
Fixed problem that the Hibernate feature for Windows 2000 placed the system in SUSPEND mode instead of Hibernate.
The Sleep time edit-control could not be operated, due to the fix of the 20secs problem in 3.01.
