Installation notes.
The archive comes with a program called setup.exe which will install DeskTools
for you in the following manner. Double-click on setup.exe. It will create a
sub directory called DESKTOOL, it will then copy the files desktool.exe,
desktool.hlp, readme.txt, and order.txt in this sub directory. It will then create a
program group called DeskTools 1.0 and within this group it will create items
for the files desktool.exe, desktool.hlp, readme.txt and order.txt.
The setup.exe program will also copy two additional files into your
windows/system sub directory.
These files are c4dll.dll (database routines) and ctl3d.dll (3D control
routines). After setup finishes installing DeskTools you can safely delete
all files in the archive.
If you wish to install DeskTools manually, keep in mind that the only important
files are the following:
c4dll.dll database routines
ctl3d.dll 3D control routines
desktool.exe latest version of DeskTool
desktool.hlp on-line help document
readme.txt this file
order.txt order/registration form
All other files are used by the setup program and can be deleted. The DLLs
should go to your windows/system sub directory. However, they can stay in the
same sub directory with the application.
Additional Information.
DeskTools is shareware. This means that you are entitled to use DeskTools free
for 30 days. After 30 days, you must either pay the registration fee ($35), or
delete the program from your hard disk. Thank you for supporting the shareware
concept.
For additional information read the on-line help document.
Thank you for using DeskTools.
