Network User Setup

Your network administrator has added you to the list of network users who can run Quattro Pro from the network server. Now you need to run the Network User Setup program from your workstation.

The Network User Setup program does the following:

Creates a private directory for the your data files on either your workstation or the network drive.

Creates a QPW.INI file in your WINDOWS directory. This file stores the application properties set by the administrator when adding you as a Quattro Pro network user.

Creates a program group for Quattro Pro on your Windows desktop.

If the administrator installed Workgroup Desktop, it creates a private mailbox directory where all objects you send or receive are stored. It also creates an OBEX.INI file in your WINDOWS directory to store your Workgroup Desktop application properties.

If your administrator has specified that you are to run Quattro Pro from your workstation instead of from the server, it copies all the files you need to run Quattro Pro locally.

If you want to change your local directory names or paths, click the Directories button.

Click the Install button to proceed.

When the Network User Set program is finished, you're set up to run Quattro Pro from either the network server, or if your administrator has specified, from your local workstation. Reboot your workstation before starting Quattro Pro so the changes to the login scripts or your AUTOEXEC.BAT file can take effect.

The Object Store Directory is where all objects you end or receive via the Workgroup Desktop are stored.

Note:	If the network administrator specified that Quattro Pro be copied to your workstation so you can run it locally, and if the Workgroup Desktop was installed, the Directories dialog box includes two more local directories.

Accept the default directory names and paths or enter your own.
