PRODUCT : Paradox NUMBER : 593
VERSION : 3.5
OS : DOS
DATE : August 26, 1991 PAGE : 1/1
TITLE : Retrieving Paradox executable files from the zip
files located on the product disks.
If some of the Paradox files did not get installed, unzipping
them from the system disk 1, 2 and the installation disks will
possibly get them back. The following outlines the procedure to
unzip the needed files.
1) Make a subdirectory off your root directory of your hard
disk and name the subdirectory pdxsys.
2) Copy all the files from the system disk 1 (pdox1.zi1),
system disk 2 (pdox1.zi2, pdox2.zi1), system disk 3
(pdox2.zi2), and the installation disk (sys.zip) into the
pdxsys subdirectory.
3) Copy the unzip.exe file (found on the installation disk)
into the pdxsys subdirectory.
4) The files from the system disks are not in the proper zip
format to be unzipped from the unzip.exe program. In
order to unzip the Paradox files from the files taken
from the product disks, you need to concatenate pairs of
files together.
type:
copy pdox1.* /b sys1.zip
copy pdox2.* /b sys2.zip
The first copy command concatenates pdox1.zi1 and
pdox1.zi2 together into one file (sys1.zip). The second
copy command concatenates pdox2.zi1 and pdox2.zi2
together into one file (sys2.zip). NOTE: the sys.zip
file is already in the proper format to be unzipped.
5) Unzip the sys1.zip, sys2.zip and sys.zip files one at a
time.
type:
unzip sys
unzip sys1
unzip sys2
6) Copy all appropriate files from the pdxsys subdirectory
to the Paradox system directory (pdox35).
You may now delete the temporary subdirectory, pdxsys, and
all it's files and start Paradox normally.
