U S E A T Y O U R O W N R I S K %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% New with this version are tabs in the Notes section pre-loaded with DOS and Windows system files for editing. Also included is the filecab.dat file which will load once you have added applications to the buttons and this file is created. Now when you click your right mouse button over an application/utility button the popup menu will show "Edit Buttons" at the top. When you click this the filecab.dat file will open in the Notes section and the first listing of the path information for that button will be highlighted for editing. To edit the picture/icon information just click the menu item Search...Find to locate the file path (if it is the same as the .exe file). You can now add a title or name to the application and utility buttons in "Setup". When program is minimized, icon moves. To stop this, click on icon and select item from popup menu (control box menu). Also, minor errors have been corrected. There seems to be an occasional conflict with certain Diamond Stealth drivers that may cause the program to lock-up. ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? To run YOUR FILE CABINET you will need the VBRUN300.DLL Visual Basic runtime file (found on most BBS's) in your Windows or Windows/System directory (as long as this is in your path statement). Then add a new program item to one of your groups (File*New*OK, etc.) using the icon with YOUR FILE CABINET. I don't know if this will run in Windows 3.0 but it should. The files included with YOUR FILE CABINET are: 1.filecab.exe - to be placed in any directory (you may want this in your start-up group also). 2. filecab.txt - this file 3. threed.vbx dfinfo1.vbx cmdialog.vbx commdlg.dll apiguide.dll csform.vbx cstext.vbx cscmd.vbx csdialog.vbx cscalndr.vbx mlist.vbx qpro200.dll vsvbx.vbx vsvbx.lic ctl3dv2.dll These files need to be placed in your Windows directory (or Windows\System if in your path) if you don't already have them. (Please make sure this is the most recent version). 4.filecab.ini filecab.dat filecab.hlp These will be created in the same directory as the main filecab.exe file. Once you have added your programs to the buttons, the file information will be saved in the filecab.dat file. Any tab settings and filecab settings will be listed in the filecab.ini file. The filecab.hlp file should be placed here. ========================================================================================= To run YOUR FILE CABINET, double-click on its icon and it will open to the main title folder. Run Setup (on the menu bar) to make various title and name changes as well as tab and folder changes. For further instructions, please read the HELP file included. There are a few instructions when you click various areas with your right mouse button. ######################################################################################### PLEASE NOTE, WHEN ADDING YOUR PROGRAMS/APPLICATIONS TO THE BUTTONS, YOUR VIDEO COLORS SHOULD BE NO HIGHER THAN 256. ONCE YOU HAVE COMPLETED THIS, YOU MAY CHANGE TO A HIGHER COLOR (32K, 64K ETC.). The status bar at the bottom of YOUR FILE CABINET will show what the various buttons are that the mouse cursor is above. When it is above one of the application buttons, it will show the path of the file that is added to that button. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ That's about all for me. Thanks, have fun and please register this program, it's only $30.00. Michael Grice Compuserve: 72144,1537 America Online: mike32514 InterNet: mikegrice@ins.infonet.net
