===== Information for Users ("READ-ME") ================
This package contains the CONTACT PLUS (R) PERSONAL 97 SYSTEM by CONTACT
PLUS CORPORATION. This document contains only a brief description along
with instructions for its installation. Detailed documentation is
included in the package, but it is in archived form, and is more easily
read after installation.
If you've been trying to keep track of your clients using a conventional
phone book, rolodex or other simple name and address book program then
Contact Plus Personal 97 is for you. Contact Plus Personal helps you
keep your contacts organized into multiple databases. You may have a
personal database of your softball team, a database of interested clients
for your business, a database of the members of the choir and want to
keep all of this information in one standard place.
This version includes a handy built-in map which includes the timezones,
area codes and distances between you and your contacts.
Contact Plus Personal 97 provides an intuitive easy to use way of keep
track of your contacts, letters to each contact, notes, phone calls,
meetings, to-dos, etc.
You can directly send e-mail to your contacts with full history of the
e-mail. Or you can do a mass mailing via e-mail. E-mail requires a MAPI
compliant serve such as MicroSoft Exchange or Eudora Pro.
Several sample databases are provided for quick and easy setup. Follow
the examples for more information.
Contact Plus Personal 97 comes with several on-line coaches making it
easy to start learning the system right away.
A complete history of all contacts such as letters, phone calls,
meetings is stored perpetually for each contact. Never forget an
appointment as alarms can be set in advance of your meetings. Drag and
drop capability on the calendars make scheduling a breeze.
Contact Plus Personal 97 is a shareware program. This evaluation version
includes all features of the program, and is not crippled in any way.
You may use it for up to 30 days without charge. If you like the program,
and wish to continue its use after this evaluation period, you are
required to pay for the program. Any fee you may have paid to others
(disk vendors, dealers, etc.) to obtain this evaluation version was a fee
for their copying and distribution services, rather than a payment for
continued use of the program.

===== Installation =====================================
The installation procedure for Contact Plus Personal 97 is quite simple.
The package includes a program, "SETUP.EXE", which automates the entire
process. You will need about 7 megabytes of available disk space on the
hard drive on which you plan to install Contact Plus Personal 97.
The exact steps you need to take will depend on how you received
Contact Plus Personal for Windows.
INSTALLING FROM DISKETTES
To install from diskette(s), you need to perform the following steps.
o Place the distribution diskette "Disk 1" in the
appropriate diskette drive.
o Execute the "SETUP.EXE" program on the distribution diskette.
For example, if the distribution diskette is on drive A: from
Program Manager run the command: "A:SETUP".
o Follow the instructions presented by the installation program.
You will have a chance to approve installation before any changes
are actually made to the contents of your hard drive. The
program will ask you for a destination directory, and will copy
the files to that directory. If you received the product
on more than one diskette, you will need to insert subsequent
diskettes when asked to do so.
INSTALLING FROM A HARD DRIVE
If you downloaded Contact Plus Personal 97 from a BBS (or received it in
the form of archive files from some other source), you will need to
perform the following steps.
o Extract the contents of the archive file(s) in a temporary
directory on your hard drive. The procedure for doing this
varies, depending on the form in which you received the package.
In all likelihood, the fact that you are reading this text means
that you already have the necessary tools and knowledge to
perform this step. If not, you should be able to obtain
directions for this from the same source from which you received
the package.
o Execute the "SETUP.EXE" program which you have extracted. For
example, if the temporary directory into which you have extracted
the <product> package is C:\TEMPDIR, you would execute the
command, "c:\tempdir\SETUP".
o Follow the instructions presented by the installation program.
You will have a chance to approve installation before any changes
are actually made to the contents of your hard drive. The
program will ask you for a destination directory, and will copy
the product files to that directory. If you so direct it, the
installation program will install executable programs and
documentation in other directories of your choice.
When you're satisfied that the installation was successful, you should
delete the temporary directory FROM which you installed the product
(C:\TEMPDIR, in the above discussion), including all its contents.
DATABASE ENGINE INSTALLATION
Contact Plus for Windows uses the 32-bit Borland Database Engine. This
is a powerful database engine that can be used by other applications. It
should be installed in your C: drive as Borland recommends. The database
engine consumes about 3.5 Megabytes.
The database engine is automatically installed when SETUP is run. Do
not delete the database engine since it is necessary to run Contact Plus
Personal successfully.
Note that the default settings for the Borland Database Engine is
'paradox ascii'. If you are working in a language other than english
you may change the default by running the BDECFG32.exe program.
UNINSTALLATION
To uninstall, go to Control Panel and select Add/Remove Programs. You
will see Contact Plus Personal 97 as one of the choices. CLick on the
remove button.
The uninstallation program will also uninstall the Borland Database
Engine.
If you are running Windows '95 then you can instead uninstall Contact
Plus Personal for Windows using the Add/Remove Programs available under
the Control Panel Group.
YOU'RE READY TO GO
Once you've complete the installation, you should consult the help files
and coaches which have been installed.
If you decide that Contact Plus Personal is not for you there is an
automatic uninstall procedure which will remove all installed files
restoring your system to it's state before the install.
----- Contact Plus DOS Users ----------------------------------------
Existing registered Contact Plus for DOS users should contact Contact
Plus Corporation for special upgrade pricing.
A conversion program for existing single user versions of Contact Plus
for DOS will be sent with the registered version.
