- Manager. If you use File Manager, simply type e:VIEW at the run
- option bar. (Substitute your CDROM's drive letter for the example
- drive letter e:.) You can then either run the program using the File
- Manager or Program Manager. Just select the disk, directory and
- program where you had VIEW copy the program and click on Run.

- group.
