- ===== Installation =====================================
-
- INSTALLAION
- REGISTERED VERSION
- If you are installing the registered version of this program, simply
- insert the disc you received into your external drive and run the
- setup program discribed below. The disc contains all the necessary
- files to run WinFin.
-
- BBS DOWNLOAD
- If you downloaded the program from a BBS, you must unzip the files into
- a temporary directory on your hard disc, i.e., "C:\temp". The total
- size of the unzipped files is greater than 1.44Meg and will not fit on
- a single floopy. See "SETUP PROGRAM" below for instructions to install
- the program. After installation, you can delete the unzipped files in
- the temporary diectory. Note: In order to conserve space on the BBS
- and minimize your download time, the file VBRUN300.DLL may not be
- included in you download. You probably already have this file in your
- \windows\system directory. If not, it is readily available on most
- BBS's. Search for VBRUN3.Zip, etc.
-
- FROM A CD-ROM
- The files are already unzipped, uncompressed and ready to run. Simply
- execute WINFIN.EXE or use the menu interface provided with the CD-ROM.
- See "SETUP PROGRAM" below for instructions to install the program.
-
- FROM A SHAREWARE DISC VENDOR
- Disc vendors frequently provide their own installation program to
- transfer the files from the disc to your hard drive. If not, look
- for the file setup.exe and follow the instructions below for running
- the setup program.
-
- SETUP PROGRAM
- The setup program, setup.exe will copy runtime and program files to the
- proper directories on your hard disc. It will also create a Windows
- Program Group with icons to run the program and bring up the
- instruction manual for easy printing.
-
- From program manager, select 'File' and then 'Run'. Type in the drive
- and path that hold the program files to be installed, followed by the
- setup program SETUP.EXE. Thus from the external drive, you would use:
-
- A:SETUP.EXE
-
- or if the program files were stored in a directory called "temp" on
- your C drive:
-
- C:\Temp\SETUP.EXE
-
- you may run the setup.exe from File Manager, by double clicking
- on SETUP.EXE in your A drive.
-
- You will be asked to enter a directory for the program files. If it
- does not exist, it will be created. The program files will be copied
- to this directory and the other files copied to you WINDOWS\SYSTEM
- directory. A program manager group for WinFin is created. Double
- click on the "Instructions" to bring up this file and print it out.
- No changes to your Config.Sys, Autoexec.Bat or INI files are made.
-
- PLEASE take the time to printout, or at least read, the WINFIN.WRI
- file. These are the instructions for the program.
-
- PROBLEMS
- It is best to close ALL programs except Program Manager when running
- the setup program.
-
- This setup program copies several files to your \windows\system
- directory. If you experience a problem during installation or
- trying to run WinFin, it is most likely due to an older version of
- one of these files elsewhere on your hard disk, probably in your
- \windows directory. Thus when WinFin loads it looks for these files
- and uses the first one of the name it needs. If this is an older
- version, you will get an error message.
-
- For example, after a successful installation and upon running WinFin,
- you may get an error message saying you are using an old version of
- CMDIALOG.VBX. The reason is that when WINFIN.EXE loads, it looks for
- CMDIALOG.VBX. If you have an old version in your \windows directory
- and a new version in your \windows\system directory, the program
- will use the first one it comes across in your path. The cure for
- this problem is to do a file search for the file named as causing
- the problem. You may be surprised to find the same file name in 2
- or 3 different locations. The only one you want is the the most
- current one which will be in your \windows\system directory. Rename
- the other copies to CMDIALOG.OLD. When you do this you may get
- another error notice that the file is in use and cannot be renamed
- or deleted. If this happens, simply exit windows and you may even
- have to reboot. You may have to rename or delete the file from DOS.
- Remember, you want the files in \windows\system, so these should not
- be deleted or renamed.
