Installing The ViaPrint Icon:
How to install your program as an Icon with the
Windows' Program Manager.
1. First install the program in a DOS directory,
outside of Windows.
2. Start up Windows and open the PROGRAM MANAGER.
3. Click once on the group in which you want the
new ViaPrint Icon installed.
4. Go up to the menu bar at the top of your screen
and click on the word FILE.
5. A menu drops down. Click on NEW.
6. You will see a window with two choices. Select
PROGRAM ITEM. Then click on OKAY.
7. Another window appears entitled PROGRAM ITEM
PROPERTIES.
8. Click in the box labeled DESCRIPTION. Type
"ViaPrint".
9. Use the tab key or mouse and go to the box
labeled COMMAND LINE. Type the full name of the
path to the directory where you have installed
ViaPrint, and the name VIAPRINT.EXE. For example,
if the program is in a directory called VIAPRINT on the
C drive you would enter C:\VIAPRINT\VIAPRINT.EXE in the
box.
10. Use the TAB key to go to the box labeled WORKING
DIRECTORY. Type the name of the directory in which
you installed ViaPrint. For example, if you
installed the game in a directory called VIAPRINT, then
type C:\VIAPRINT.
11. Now click on OKAY in the PROGRAM ITEM PROPERTIES
Window.
You should now have the ViaPrint Icon installed
in your PROGRAM MANAGER. Enjoy the program!
NOTE:
An order form is provided under the file name "ORDER.TXT".
You can Open this file using Windows Notepad and print it, or
print one from the "Viable" Button in ViaPrint itself.
NOTE 2:
Some printers apparently will not print .BMP pictures from
ViaPrint. We are working to alleviate this situation -
meanwhile you'll find ViaPrint useful without pictures!
We suggest you use MetaFiles rather than .BMPs.
NOTE 3:
It has come to my attention that certain SVGA video hardware
is non-compatible with the MicroSoft Visual Basic Environment and
causes problems every so often in 800 x 600 mode and more often in
1024 x 768 resolution. Buttons will be misplaced etc. At the
moment there is one solution:
Open the Windows Setup icon and select CHANGE SYSTEM SETTINGS
from the OPTIONS menu. Follow the prompts to change your
video mode to a 640 x 480 resolution driver. The game will
now run fine. When you're finished, return to Setup and
re-install your original driver.
We're sorry for the inconvenience.
Happy ViaPrinting!
