- EXCAL, THE WORKPLACE CALENDAR (11/10/93)
- by Diana Soost and Dan Kehn
-
- Copyright (C) International Business Machines Corporation, 1993
-
- PREREQUISITES:
-
- This version has only been tested on OS/2 2.1. It may work
- on OS/2 2.0 with SOMFIX installed, but caveat emptor!
-
- INSTALLATION
-
- First copy your EXCAL.DLL file to a disk. For example,
- C:\OS2\DLL. Copy the ExCal help file, EXCAL.HLP, to your
- help directory, for example, C:\OS2\HELP.
-
- Then start the installation program, EXCINST.EXE. It will prompt
- you for the path where your copied the EXCAL.DLL. When the
- installation is complete, a new folder object called "ExCal" will
- appear on your desktop. It contains a ExCal calendar object and
- example templates.
-
- See "Example use of ExCal" in the on-line help of the ExCal
- calendar object for more details.
-
- UPGRADING TO NEW VERSIONS OF EXCAL:
-
- The EXCAL.DLL cannot be replaced while it is in use by the
- Workplace Shell. A simple way around this problem is to add the
- line below:
-
- CALL=C:\OS2\CMD.EXE
-
- to the top of your CONFIG.SYS file and reboot. A full screen
- session will be started before the Workplace Shell is started. Copy
- the new EXCAL.DLL over the old and then EXIT to continue booting.
- Remember to remove (or comment out using REM) the line above in your
- CONFIG.SYS.
