Thank you for choosing HyperNotes!  Follow the simple instructions
 below to install.

      INSTALLING HYPERNOTES
Just choose "Run" from the Program Manager File menu, and in the 
box that comes up, type A:\SETUP.EXE.  This assumes you have the 
HyperNotes files on a diskette in your A:\ drive.  If they are 
anywhere else instead, type in the path to them in place of the 
"A:\".  Before you try to install, though, see the section on 
VBRUN300.DLL.

      DOS SHARE
As a potentially multi-user product, HyperNotes needs to have 
DOS SHARE (or its equivalent) present for its database access.  
SHARE is initiated in the CONFIG.SYS or AUTOEXEC.BAT files.  
If you do not currently run DOS SHARE, insert the following line
in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file before it calls Windows:
 
SHARE.EXE /L:500

This assumes that DOS is in your path as defined in AUTOEXEC.BAT.

      VBRUN300.DLL
HyperNotes requires a special library of routines called 
VBRUN300.DLL.  The SETUP program mentioned above must have this 
file available also in order to run.

If you obtained your HyperNotes files directly from a bulletin 
board, this file was probably not included among the ones you 
downloaded for HyperNotes.  This is because VBRUN300.DLL is a file 
common to many Windows programs, and most of the people who 
download HyperNotes will already have this file.

Virtually any source from which you obtained these HyperNotes files 
will also be able to provide you with VBRUN300.DLL at no charge.
And if you got the files from a current user, it should already be
on the disk.  To see if it is either there, or on your system, try 
running the SETUP program as directed above.  If VBRUN300.DLL is 
not present, a message will appear saying that the program cannot 
be run.

Once you have VBRUN300.DLL, you may place it on the 
WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory.


      LIST OF INSTALLED FILES
The HyperNotes Setup installs the following files:

     Into the WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory:
        VBRUN300.DLL (if present)
        HNTSORT.DLL
        VBIS23MU.DLL
        CMDIALOG.VBX
        ATX30H.VBX
        VSVIEW.VBX
If the install detects the same or a newer version of any of the 
above files already on your computer, they will not be overlaid.

     Into the new HyperNotes directory you specify:
        HNOTES.EXE
        HNOTES.HLP
        SETUP.EXE
        INSTALL.TXT
        README.TXT
        
     Into the FOLDERS\TUTORIAL subdirectory to the above:
        DOCS.ISD, DOCS.ISF, DOCS.ISM 
        TITLES.ISD, TITLES.ISF, TITLES.ISM 
        INDEX.ISD, INDEX.ISF, INDEX.ISM 
        KEYS.ISD, KEYS.ISF, KEYS.ISM
        LEAVES.BMP
        HYPERBAR.BMP
        SOUND.WAV
        MUSIC.MID
 

      MANUAL INSTALL
If you experience a problem installing through the SETUP program, 
you may install the files manually. In File Manager, create a new 
directory called HNOTES (you may use another name if you wish). 
Then copy all the HyperNotes files into it except the ones ending 
in .ISD, .ISF, and .ISM.  These should be placed in a subdirectory
to the new directory:  FOLDERS\TUTORIAL.

You will also want to create the icon to represent HyperNotes on 
your desktop.  Follow the instructions in your Windows manual to 
do this.

In order to make the common Windows routines in HyperNotes
available to other programs you might obtain, you should move them
from the HyperNotes directory to a place where they can be accessed
by other programs as well as HyperNotes.  In File Manager, move the 
files VBRUN300.DLL and all files ending in .VBX into the 
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory.  You should check first, however, 
to make sure you don't overlay a more recent copy of these files 
that may already be there.  You can then delete them from your 
HyperNotes directory, as only one copy of them is needed.
