-
- Description
-
- StampCAT is a quick, efficient, easy-to-use program for
- organizing your stamp collection.
-
- With StampCAT you can register and look up information about
- such things as:
-
- - country, catalog number, face value, issue date, design, topic
- - color, preformation, condition, watermark, date acquired
- - postmark (type, city and date)
- - location, quantity, price and market value.
-
- You can add personal comments for every item. Eleven special
- fields enable you to customize your catalog. You can even store
- a scanned picture of the stamp.
-
- =============================================================
-
- Distribution
-
- StampCAT is distributed as shareware. This means you are
- welcome to give copies of StampCAT to your friends and
- colleagues. For a list of files that need to be distributed,
- please see VENDINFO.DIZ. Do not, under any circumstances,
- distribute STAMPC.MEM. This file contains the serial number,
- and with this information we can trace the copy back to you.
- When STAMPC.MEM is not present, StampCAT runs as an
- unregistered shareware version.

- Installation
-
- NOTE!
- If you downloaded this package from the Internet, please
- read this paragraph very carefully: A file called
- VBRUN300.DLL needs to be installed on your computer before
- SETUP is run. To save space, this file was not included
- in this package. Please check your SYSTEM directory
- (usually C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM) to see if you already have this
- file (this is very likely). If not then download, unzip and
- copy the file to the SYSTEM directory. It is very important
- that you do this before SETUP is run!
-
- VBRUN300.DLL is available from most file servers,
- including:
-
- ftp.cdrom.com/.1/simtelnet/win3/dll/vbrun300.zip
- ftp.ftp.hkstar.com/.2/simtelnet/win3/dll/vbrun300.zip
- ftp.demon.co.uk/.d5/simtelnet/win3/dll/vbrun300.zip
- ftp.uni-paderborn.de/ftp/disk1/SimTel/win3/dll/vbrun300.zip
- ftp.bitcon.no/pub/simtelnet/win3/dll/vbrun300.zip
- ftp.chem.eng.usyd.edu.au/dropbox/pgrad/utils/win31/vbrun300.zip

-
- To install StampCAT, follow these steps:
-
- From Diskette
-
- 1. Insert diskette number 1 into your diskette drive.
-
- 2. If you are running Microsoft Windows 3.1, from the Program
- Manager File menu choose Run.
-
- If you are running Microsoft Windows 95, from the Start
- menu choose Run.
-
- 3. In the text box, type the path to the installation program,
- for example A:\SETUP, and choose OK.
-
- 4. When requested, specify the directory where you want to
- install StampCAT. Unless you specify a different directory
- the application will be installed in C:\STAMPC.
-
- 5. Choose OK to start the installation process.
-
- From Hard Disk
-
- 1. Ensure that all StampCAT installation files are in the
- same directory, for example C:\CATTEMP.
-
- 2. If you are running Microsoft Windows 3.1, from the Program
- Manager File menu choose Run.
-
- If you are running Microsoft Windows 95, from the Start
- menu choose Run.
-
- 3. In the text box, type the name of the drive and directory
- where the installation files are located, then type \SETUP
- (for example C:\CATTEMP\SETUP) and choose OK.
-
- 4. When requested, specify the directory where you want to
- install StampCAT. Unless you specify a different directory
- the application will be installed in C:\STAMPC.
-
- 5. Choose OK to start the installation process.
-
- If you have any problems with the installation, you may
- install files manually by following this procedure:
-
- 1. Start a "DOS-window" (In Program Manager double-click
- on the MS-DOS icon).
- 2. What you type at the DOS prompt depends on the file
- you want to install. For example, if you want to install
- THREED.VBX, follow these steps:
-
- - Insert the correct diskette (in this case diskette
- no. 1) into you diskette drive.
-
- - Type this command (you may need to substitute A for
- the letter of your diskette drive, for example B)
-
- EXPAND A:\THREED.VB_ C:\STAMPC\THREED.VBX <Enter>
-
- THREED.VBX is unpacked and copied to the program
- directory.
-
- Normally, files with the extension VBX or DLL should be
- installed in the SYSTEM directory (usually
- C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM). Do not copy files to this directory
- yourself. If, however, you do, please make a copy of the
- original file first. You might overwrite a newer version,
- and as a result some other application might not work.
