--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Système International Converter VERSION 1.0 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- S.I. Converter is a Windows calculator designed to convert traditional amounts into Système International (SI) units and vice versa. This comes in handy nowadays when most, if not all, the medical/technical journals show values in SI units now, instead of traditional units (e.g., blood glucose, which used to be expressed as mg/dl are now mmol/L). The following is a list of files for VERSION 1.0: SETUP EXE Setup Program file SETUP LST Setup Program file SETUP1 EXE Setup Program file SETUPKIT DL_ Visual Basic runtime file VER DL_ Visual Basic runtime file THREED VBX Visual Basic runtime file SICONVRT EXE S.I. Converter executable file SIHELP HLP S.I. Converter help file ITEMS DAT S.I. Converter datafile LICENSE TXT User license text file README TXT This file *** PLEASE NOTE IF YOU OBTAINED THIS PROGRAM FROM A BBS *** VBRUN100.DLL (a Visual Basic runtime file) is also required to run S.I. Converter. If you have downloaded S.I. Converter from a BBS, you will also need to OBTAIN VBRUN100.DLL BEFORE RUNNING THE SETUP PROGRAM! It should be available through most BBSs (on CompuServe, it is available through the Microsoft Basic Forum Library. Type GO MSBASIC). You must THEN RENAME VBRUN100.DLL AS VBRUN100.DL_! To INSTALL S.I. Converter: (1) From Program Manager, choose File | Run, (2) Type \SETUP.EXE, then (3) Press ENTER. To RUN S.I. Converter: (1) Simply double-click on the S.I. Converter icon. ACTIONS TAKEN during installation: (1) AUTOEXEC.BAT, CONFIG.SYS and WIN.INI are NOT affected. (2) SETUPKIT.DL_, VER.DL_ and VBRUN100.DL_ are placed (usually) in the WINDOWS subdirectory and their respective extensions changed from .DL_ to .DLL. (3) SETUP.EXE is copied to the WINDOWS subdirectory and renamed SISET.EXE. (4) THREED.VBX is also copied (usually) to the WINDOWS subdirectory. (5) A separate subdirectory is created at the root level (default name is SICONVRT) where SICONVRT.EXE, SIHELP.HLP, ITEMS.DAT, LICENSE.TXT and README.TXT are placed. (6) A separate Program Manager Group is created and the S.I. Converter program icon is placed within it. Our expectation is that S.I. Converter is error-free. Sometimes, however, users will find errors (usually typographical in nature). If you find one of these errors, please contact us at the address below, or by way of CompuServe, so these errors may be corrected. S.I. Converter is SHAREWARE. That means you get to "Try-Before-You-Buy" the software, in order to determine whether the program is right for you. It should not take long for this program to show its worth. We trust you to send the required registration fee - in this case $20 + $2.50 S/H (AND, if you're lucky enough to live in Oklahoma, an added OK state tax) - or stop using the program. By registering your copy, you will be sent the latest edition of S.I. Converter and notified of any updates to it. You will also be put on our mailing list and notified of other new programs published by Indian Territory Software. This fee supports our ongoing efforts to create new and better programs for you.
