Shareware Version for Windows

This file includes a description of the system and setup instructions
for its use in Windows 3.0 or later.
PROGRAM OVERVIEW
In a typical 6/49 lotto game, the odds are 13,983,816 to 1 against
winning the big prize. Every "system" for winning the lottery is
designed to reduce those odds by using some method of recognizing or
anticipating the trends, patterns or coincidences that occur even in
random-selection drawings. WIN$EASY is designed to help you reduce
those odds by providing the analysis tools necessary for any winning
system, by providing the most common number-selection methods (such as
boxing and wheeling) and by providing several innovative number-
selection methods of its own -- for virtually any lottery in the
world. Plus, WIN$EASY makes playing any lottery easier and more fun
by automating data maintenance, drawing analysis, number selection,
and matching selections with drawings. It even provides an electronic
scratch pad for experimenting with lotto or Keno numbers and groups.
The primary functions in WIN$EASY include:
Configure the program for use with up to 99 different lotteries
per data base, reconfigure, add or delete games, change game
names, or select the active game.
Maintain a data base of the numbers drawn in each lottery.
Analyze the drawings in numerous ways.
Use a wide variety of number-selection techniques based on
drawing analysis, frequency, boxing, wheeling, hot and cold
numbers, permutations, play-slip patterns, numerology, the
zodiac, dice rolls, simulated lottery machines, and other
methods.
For lotto games that use playing cards instead of numbers, use
the playing-card conversion utility to convert drawings and
selections from cards to numbers and vice versa.
Perform error-free matching of your selections with the last
drawing(s) to identify winners, and save the auto-match report.
Use the scratch pad for experimenting with lotto or Keno numbers
and groups, save them in files for later use (you'll never need a
pencil and paper with this program), and transfer numbers from
other functions to the scratch pad and vice versa.
Maintain separate data bases for use by different players (you
can keep track of your spouse's selections separately from
yours).
Copy the drawings, selections, auto-match report and/or scratch
pad files to a printer.
View on-screen lists of all drawings, selected drawings, saved
selections and other items.
Edit (add, change, delete or insert) filed drawings or
selections, add personal selections, purge duplicate selections
(with an option for deleting permutated duplicates for one-
number games), randomly delete any number of selections, or
delete an entire selections file.
View all documentation through an extensive on-screen help
function.
WIN$EASY for DOS, used by winners since 1988, has been called "The
best lottery program I've ever seen", and WIN$EASY for Windows is even
better! The DOS version does not include the play-slip patterns,
numerology, zodiac or playing-card conversion functions mentioned
above. Also, the DOS version will not handle Keno games or any lotto
game that draws more than 12 numbers or in which a selection can have
more than 7 numbers. The Windows version handles Keno and lotto games
that draw up to 22 numbers and in which a selection can have from 2 to
22 numbers. Both versions handle lotto games that use numbers in any
range from 1 to 80, and both versions handle 3-digit or 4-digit one-
number (daily) games. The Windows version also handles one-number
games that use 5 or 6 digits.
WINDOWS SETUP
Use the following steps to set up the system for use in Windows:
1. Copy the VBRUN200.DLL and GRID.VBX files to your \WINDOWS\SYSTEM
directory. For example, if the distribution disk is in drive A:,
and your hard disk is drive C:, you would use:
COPY A:VBRUN200.DLL C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM <Enter>
COPY A:GRID.VBX C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM <Enter>
2. Copy the remaining files to a directory you create and from which
you will run WIN$EASY (e.g. C:\WIN$EASY). For example, if the
distribution disk is in drive A:, and you want to create a
directory named WIN$EASY on your C: drive, you could use:
C: <Enter>
CD \ <Enter>
MD WIN$EASY <Enter>
CD WIN$EASY <Enter>
COPY A:WIN$EZ.CFG <Enter>
COPY A:*.DAT <Enter>
COPY A:WIN$EASY.* <Enter>
3. Run WINDOWS and open whichever program group you want to have the
WIN$EASY icon, by clicking twice on that program group's icon.
4. On the Program Manager's menu bar, select FILE, then select NEW,
then select PROGRAM ITEM.
5. In the DESCRIPTION box, enter "Main Menu" (without the quotes).
The WIN$EASY icon includes the name WIN$EASY, so you don't need it
in the description line for the icon.
6. In the COMMAND LINE box, enter the path (drive:\directory) for the
directory to which you copied the program file and include the
program's file name, WIN$EASY.EXE. For example, if the program is
in the WIN$EASY directory on drive C:, you would enter in that box
the following command line: C:\WIN$EASY\WIN$EASY.EXE
7. In the WORKING DIRECTORY box, enter the same path as you did in
step 6, without the program name. (Don't skip this step or every
time you run the program it will ask for the location of the
WIN$EZ.CFG file.) Using the example above, you would enter the
following path: C:\WIN$EASY
8. Finally, select OK and the WIN$EASY icon will appear in the
program group window. Click twice on the WIN$EASY icon to run the
program.
9. Select HELP on the WIN$EASY Main Menu's menu bar and then select
HELP CONTENTS from the drop-down list of options. Read the
WIN$EASY HELP CONTENTS topic's discussion for an explanation of
the things you need to know to effectively use the program -- and
be sure to read the GETTING STARTED topic.
The system includes all drawing data for all Florida lotteries from
their inception through 25 March 1993. Even if you don't play the
Florida lotteries, you can use that data to experiment with the
program, and it is suggested that, if you don't play those games, you
do not delete the Florida games and do not add configuration for the
games you do play until you are completely familiar with the program's
operation.
Finally, please remember that this program is not free and is not in
the public domain. It is shareware, i.e. a copyrighted evaluation
copy of the program that you may use for 30 days, after which time you
must either order the registered version or stop using this version.
See the on-screen license terms for details about distribution and
ordering.
Good Luck!
