- Windows 3.1 (for Windows 95, see below)
- ------------
- To set up Money & Banks to run from Windows 3.1 Program Manager, first
- install the program normally from DOS or within a full DOS window.
-
- Next, make the desired Program Group in which you wish to place M&B the
- current group (that is, click on the Title Bar of the group to highlight
- it as the current one).
-
- From the File Menu, select New. Then select Program Item. Choose OK.
- Type in "Money & Banks" as the Description line. For the Command Line,
- enter the drive, directory, and name of the M&B executable filename; i.e.,
-
- C:\MONEY\MONEY.EXE
-
- if you have installed to the C: drive and in the default directory name
- suggested by the M&B Installation program.
-
- For the Working Directory, indicate the above directory:
-
- C:\MONEY
-
- (Additional directories that you may set up for Money & Banks should have
- their own individual program items created so that you may specify the
- different directories as the appropriate Working Directory.)
-
- You may skip the Shortcut Key designation and the Run Minimized check box.
-
- Click on the Change Icon button. You may receive a message that no icon
- is available; if so, click on OK and when the Change Icon dialog box
- appears, click on Browse. Select the drive (i.e., C: indicated above) on
- which you installed Money & Banks, select the appropriate directory (i.e.,
- \MONEY in the example above), and select:
-
- M&B.ICO
-
- as the icon file desired. Click on OK. In the Change Icon box, click on
- OK. In the original Program Item Properties box, click on OK.
-
- The Program Group item for M&B will be created. To launch the program
- from Windows, you need only double-click on the M&B icon. (Make sure you
- are running M&B in a full MS-DOS screen; it will not run in an MS-DOS
- window.)

- Windows 95
- -----------
- Money & Banks has been fully tested by RCCO Research to run under Windows 95.
- Many users will note immediate benefits in terms of the program's execution
- speed and smoothness of the video screens, particularly if you are running
- Windows 95 on a Pentium (or 80486) system.
-
- To set up Money & Banks to run in Windows 95, first install the program
- normally from a full MS-DOS window. (See the Readme.txt file for instructions
- in running Install.exe from MS-DOS.) You must observe MS-DOS filenaming
- conventions when naming a directory (folder) in which M&B will be installed
- (most users will accept the suggested default, C:\MONEY); that is, the
- directory/folder name must be eight characters or less with no spaces or
- other characters not allowable under traditional MS-DOS naming conventions.
- Please note that when you begin naming your bank account tables in the
- program itself, this naming convention must be followed with those filenames
- as well. When reading the M&B online documentation, you may wish to
- mentally substitute the word "folder" whenever "directory" is mentioned.
-
- In Windows 95, to add this program to your Start Menu:
- 1. Click on Start.
- 2. Move the mouse pointer up to Settings.

- 6. Click on Browse, then navigate to the application's executable
- file, MONEY.EXE, by first double-clicking to the folder or
- sub-folder in which it exists. Select MONEY.EXE. Click on Open.
- 7. Now the Command line shows the path to the MONEY
- executable file. Click on Next.
- 8. Choose a folder in which the shortcut to the program will
- appear (or select New Folder if one is desired).
- 9. Click on Next.
- 10. At the prompt 'Select a name for the shortcut,' type in
- "Money and Banks." Choose an appropriate icon.
- 11. Click on Finish. This returns you to the Taskbar Properties
- window.
- 12. Under the Advanced Settings you will have to specify that this
- program is to run in a FULL MS-DOS SCREEN. Money & Banks will not
