Requirements to run Grocery Manager for Windows
1) Windows 3.x running Standard or Enhanced Mode
2) 698K disk space available (341K if you already have a copy of VBRUN200.DLL).
3) Minimum free memory in Windows to run GMW: 500K
Installing Grocery Manager for Windows (GMW)
Automatic Installation
Unzip GMW102.ZIP onto a floppy or into an empty directory on your
hard drive. While in Windows, start INSTALL.EXE. You will be presented
with a default directory for GMW to be installed into. This can be
changed to anything you want, but please keep GMW in its own
directory. Check the box if you want a program group created
for GMW, and then click on the start button. Click on the Exit
button when the installation is complete, and then delete all files
from the directory you unzipped GMW102.ZIP into.
Files on the floppy that aren't transferred to your hard drive
by the install program are:
describe.txt
diskstat.dll
file_id.diz
install.exe
install.inf
packing.txt
readme.1st
readme.txt
sysop.txt
vendor.txt
Manual Installation
Place VBRUN200.DLL and VBISAMMX.DLL in any directory in your path, your
Windows directory, or your Windows System directory. Create a directory
for GMW, and place all remaining files, except the files on the above
list, into this directory.
GMW Sample Files and a Quick Tour of GMW
Included with GMW are some sample files so you can evaluate GMW
without having to manually enter any data. These files are
copied to your hard drive during the automatic installation. The
sample files will enable you to see how Grocery Manager works.
Immediately after installing GMW, go to the View menu, and
browse through the various screens to view. The sample files are
set up so that you can view or printout a sample menu and
shopping list without going through the usual steps to make one.
Select Shopping List from the View menu. This is an example of
what you would take to the grocery store. Select Menu from the
View menu. This is a sample of a menu that shows what meals are
planned on each day.
When you get to the point that you want to enter your own data,
you may either modify the existing data, or delete it and start
over. To completely delete the data and start over, be sure that
GMW isn't running, and go to the directory that GMW was
installed in and delete all the data files by typing the
following command at a DOS prompt: "Del *.IS?".
