INTRODUCTION Thank you for evaluating our software product. This program is actively being maintained. The product was thoroughly tested; however, like all software, some minor 'bugs' and irritants will inevitably be uncovered with its widespread use. As coding errors and problems are reported to us, we will correct them and we will release regular updates of the software. If you discover a problem, however small, please let us know so that we can fix it. If you send us an emal message, we will advise you, if and by when the error can be fixed, or whether it has already been fixed in the latest version. Upon registration, a master diskette with the latest software will be supplied. NEWSLETTER When you have a moment, please read our Newsletter at http://www.informatik/news.html for news flashes and upgrade announcements. MANUAL, USER GUIDE If your registered version of the software includes a print file of the User Guide (and no printed hard copy), you can print the manual on any Windows compatible printer.

From the File menu, choose Run. 4. In the Command Line type one of the following: - If the software is on a diskette, type A:\SETUP (assuming your floppy drive is A:). - If the extracted software is on the hard disk, type C:\DIRECTORY\SETUP (where DIRECTORY is the actual directory that holds the software files). 5. Choose OK. 6. Follow the prompts. IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING THE VBRUN300.DLL This program requires the VBRUN300.DLL file.
