ABOUT

Sooner or later you will receive several DLL files with same name 
but different date and size. To see which one is the newest use 
Version Info. It opens DLL/EXE/VBX/OCX files and checks if file 
version information is available. You can also find duplicates of 
the same file and compare versions. All files do not have the version 
information, but most Microsoft files have.
 

INSTALLATION

Copy the VER.DLL to your Windows\system directory, if you don't already 
have one. To make things easier, you can associate VERINFO with 
extensions DLL, VBX, OCX from FileManger File/Associate.. menu. If 
don't know how , see your Windows manual or FileManager HELP for 
further information. No other installation required. Of course you 
may install a new icon into the Program Manager. 
Version Info requires Windows 3.1
