    The WinOnLine REVIEW is distributed in the Windows HELP (.HLP) 
file format.  To view the HELP file, simply unzip it into your Windows 
directory and double click on the file name WOLRxx.HLP.

    If it does not automatically load into the WinHelp program then you 
will need to attach the extension (.HLP) to that program.  You do that by 
locating the [extensions] section of your WIN.INI file and add the 
following line to it:

                          HLP=WINHELP.EXE ^.HLP

    After you add the above line, exit and restart Windows.

    Once you make that association you should not have to do it again.  
You can now read all .HLP (HELP) files by simply clicking on them with 
your mouse.

    Another way to view our HELP file is to simple "RUN" the program
WINHELP.EXE and load our file into it.

    As of Issue #57 you may need to view our HELP file by using the 
Windows Help engine for Windows v3.1

                              "WINHELP.EXE"

File dated 3/10/92.  If you are running Windows v3.0 you will need to get
the Windows v3.1 file named above. It is the Win v3.1 version of the help
engine.  The reason is that our HELP files are now compiled with that v3.1
compiler which requires the WINHELP.EXE from Win v3.1 to view our HELP
file.

    As our magazine size grows we continue to look for ways to reduce our 
file size while giving you more in every issue. The new Win 3.1 compiler 
produces a much smaller help file and for that reason we have made the 
change. I hope it is not too troubling to our Windows 3.0 users.

                              
                               ATTENTION
                               ********* 
    
    This issue (WOLR81.ZIP) and future issues will include several 
additional files (contained within the ZIP) to make the HELP (.HLP) file 
fully functional. Included with every issue, will be two DLLs and one or 
more (.WAV) sound files. Another contained DLL, will have the same name 
as the issue, such as WOLR81.DLL (the WOLR81 means, WinOnLine Review issue
81). One or more .WAV sound files may also accompany the issue, to provide 
for various sound affects. These .WAV files are public domain and you are 
free to use them for your personal use. Please keep all these .DLL and 
.WAV files together with the issues .HLP file.  

   If you tend to keep back issues of our magazines, you may wish to give 
each issue their own directory or place them all in one seperate directory.
Each new issue will now have at least one or more new .WAV and one new 
unique .DLL file and one .DLL called SLDSHW.DLL.

   If you have any problems or comments about our new style for this 
magazine, please let us know. Many changes to our magazine will be occurring 
in 1994. Express your opinions by calling Windows OnLine at 510-736-8343 
(BBS) and leave a comment to the Sysop. While you are at it browse around 
and have some fun, download some free files.


    Enjoy the issue and let us know what you think!

    Have a great month now,
