PCB-REWARD Version 1.6
Update Information
This latest version of PCB-REWARD is now FULL FUNCTIONAL. It is
not crippled in any way. The unregistered version will simply
place a message in the Bulletin or News file that it is an
Evaluation copy and to please register it. Once your copy is
registered, this message will no longer appear.
It has also been improved to allow you to reward up to 99 users
with one of two security levels. A future version will allow you
to specify to number of users to reward with each level.
This latest release also adds the ability to place the reward
notice in your News file, as a Bulletin, or both. If you place it
in the News file, it will use a special character that will allow
the reward message to be placed at the top of the file and
overwrite the old notice without affecting the remainder of the
news file.
INSTALLING THIS VERSION
**************************** WARNING *****************************
You MUST run your old version of REWARDxx with the /NEW switch
prior to installing and running this new version !!! This is
MANDATORY in that Version 1.5 must start with a unrewarded users
file, or your users file MAY BECOME CORRUPTED !!! The command line
for this is:
REWARDxx REWARD.CFG /NEW
where xx = old version number.
Of course, be sure to use the .CFG name that you are currently
using.
*******************************************************************
Copy REWARD16.EXE to the directory that you are currently executing
REWARDxx from. You MUST reset all users prior to running this
version. Instructions are shown above.
After resetting the users, substitute REWARD16 in place of REWARDxx
in your Event.sys file.
You must also add some information to the .CFG file that you are
using. Please examine the SAMPLE.CFG file and/or REWARD16.DOC for
information on the new settings. This version WILL NOT work
without these changes.
Please read the .DOC file for additional info.
