This is the latest version of QadHTML as of the 19th June 1995.
If you want to look for the latest version you can do so by the WWW
(http://www.magi.com/~mcharet/). This version is a BETA test. This
means that you have to be especially careful with your data files. We
have take all the precautions that we can but errors can happen. We
are using this software for our own business (this is to reassure
you).
In this package you should have these files:
QadHTML.exe The program itself.
vrobj.dll The DLL needed to execute QadHTML.exe
(not in the upgrade package)
QadHTML.ico The icon for the program
QadHTML.hlp The online help file (not finished)
preview.vrx The rexx command file to start the WebExplorer
in preview mode
Install.exe Program to install QadHTML
Install.ico Icon for the installation program
install.txt Text file explaining the installation (if you
do not use the install program or have problems)
*.bmp The icons for the program toolbar.
*.htm The template files included with QadHTML.
file_id.diz File to help BBS classified this program
readme.txt This file.
sc.qad Text file with all the Latin-1 code (and more)
The only requirements of the program are that you have the
vrobj.dll file in your LIBPATH (config.sys), the QadHTML.ini and
sc.qad files in the working directory. The .\icon\ directory should be
under the directory where QadHTML.exe is if you want icons in your
program. The install program should take care of everything except to
make sure that vrobj.dll is in your libpath.
This program was tested on 2 systems. A Pentium-90 32 Mb RAM with
Warp fullpack and a 486-DX2-66 16 Mb RAM with OS/2 2.1.
In both cases no problem where encountered. If you have any problem
