- HINTS AND TIPS
-
- When you start MEN ON WOMEN/WOMEN ON MEN, the first screen that
- will appear is the Quick Start Menu dialog. Select the "Memo"
- pushbutton. You'll see it in the lower right hand corner of
- the dialog. It has the caption "Hints and Tips." It'll put you
- into the help system and give you a brief summary of useful program
- information.

-
- Quote-A-Day is an optional feature that enables you to start every
- Windows session with a quote or joke.
-
- Here's how it works: Windows has a StartUp group. Each time Windows
- starts it will automatically run the program(s) in its StartUp group.
- We've added a command switch, "D" for Daily, to MWWM that takes
- advantage of this feature.
-
- When you start MWWM with the D command switch, all the opening
- screens are bypassed. Your quote, selected by Quote-A-Day, will be
- the first thing you see. When you're done reading it, you can
- select the Exit command to immediately end the program or you can
- take some other action.
-
- All you have to do to activate this feature is copy the program
- icon to your StartUp group, and then add the D command switch to
- the Program Item Properties' Command Line as follows:
-
- Change: C:\MenWom25\MWWM
- To: C:\MenWom25\MWWM D
-
- Detailed instructions are as follows:
-
- 1. From Program Manager's Main Menu select Window | Men on Women...
- 2. From Program Manager's Main Menu select Window | StartUp.
- (Both groups should now be open on your Desktop. You may want
- to move one group so you can see both of them.)
- 3. Press and hold down <CTRL> while you drag the MWWM icon from
- the Men on Women/Women on Men window to the StartUp window.
- (Notice how the mouse pointer becomes a replica of the MWWM icon.)
- 4. When the MWWM icon is in the StartUp group window release both the
- mouse button and the <CTRL> key.
- 5. From Program Manager's Main Menu select File | Properties and
- the Program Item Properties dialog appears.
- 6. Press the <TAB> key once to move to the "Command Line."
- 7. Press the <END> key once to move to the end of the "Command Line."
- 8. Press the <SpaceBar> once and then type the letter D.
- 9. Click the OK button.
-
- Quote-A-Day should now be enabled. It'll take effect the very next
- time you start Windows.

- If you're a new Windows user, we'll just mention that green text
- in a Windows' help system designates a hypertext link. That means that
- more, or related, information is available on that subject. You can
- access it by positioning your mouse pointer on the green text and
- clicking your left mouse button.
