Creating the icon
-----------------
If you already know how to install a Windows application, then place the executable file (DESKMENU.EXE) wherever you like.  Otherwise, copy the program file into your Windows directory and run Windows.  Then, follow these steps:

  1. In the Program Manager, open your Main icon ( if it  
     is not already open ).

  2. Select the File menu in the menu bar of the Program 
     Manager and make the New... selection

  3. When the dialog box opens, press the OK button.

  4. Press the BROWSE button to open the file selector.
     Use the controls in this window to display the 
     directory that contains the files in the DeskMenu! 
     archive.

  5. In the file selector, scroll down to the bottom 
     of the list.  Double click on DESKMENU.EXE.

  6. When you are ready, press OK and OK again.

The DeskMenu! icon should now appear in your Main group.  The program can be run by double clicking on the new icon.

If you would like DeskMenu! to come up automatically, install it into your Startup group instead of the Main group.
