Upgrading
=========

For users upgrading *please* make a backup of your data before you upgrade 
just in case anything goes wrong. Also make sure the file EAZYCONV.EXE is
either in the directory you are running EAZY from or on the DOS PATH.


Quick Installation
==================

Copy EAZY.EXE and EAZYCONV.EXE (if upgrading) to a directory that is included 
in your DOS PATH statement. Then add the following line to your AUTOEXEC.BAT 
(after the path statement):

EAZY.EXE /BOOTUP

Then run EAZY to enter all your Event Reminder Dates!

Please note the following points: * There are two Event View types (not only
                                    the Multi-View type);
                                  * If you have a Text Viewer you wish to 
                                    use, set it up in the filename setup;
                                  * The EAZY.CFG file is in ASCII format so
                                    if anything goes wrong you can edit it 
                                    with a text editor (eg. EDIT.COM).

Please Read EAZY.DOC for all the installation, help and technical information.

To print out the Documentation type:

                        PRINT EAZY.DOC       ...(at the command line)...

This version of EAZY is distibuted through the SHAREWARE scheme and therefore
is not free or Public Domain software. You are, however, able to evauluate it
for 30 days before making the decision whether to register your copy.


NOTE ABOUT FUTURE VERSIONS 
==========================

* An OS/2 Version is currently being planned. Looking into options, interface
  ideas, extra features. If you have any ideas you want to see in the OS/2 
  version get in touch with us. 

* The DOS version will still be updated.

* No Windows Version is planned as it cannot provide some of the features 
  that OS/2 can. If you wish to see a Windows version tell us.

Thankyou for trying out EAZY and we are looking forward for your
registration.
