Quick Shopping List - Version 4.3 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This program is a Visual Basic application that makes preparing shopping lists easier and faster. The file SHOPPER.EXE can exist in any directory, but I suggest you create a special directory for it such as C:\QSHOP or something similar. The first time the program runs, it will create other *.DAT files in the same directory. The easiest way to try this program out is to create a directory called c:\QSHOP, copy all the unzipped files into that directory, then from the file manager, double click on QSHOP.EXE. This program requires one additional files not included. This file is VBRUN300.DLL. If you have an earlier version of this program, your source item file may appear jumbled. This can be fixed without having to re-enter all your items. Simply click on the menu option FILE, then click on CONVERT. That option will convert your old data into the new format. This program is shareware, not freeware. CopyRight 1995 by Roger D. McCook, 40 Emily Drive, Lilburn Georgia 30247.

This is how I suggest you set the program up if you are downloading from CompuServe: 1) Create a directory c:\QSHOP 2) Copy all the files that are unzipped into that directory. 3) Any files that have the extention .vbx or .dll could be copied to your c:\windows\system directory but make sure that you are not copying over a more recent file with the same name. 4) To run the program, double click on QSHOP.EXE. To set up a program item in your program manager, Click on File, Click on New, Click on Program Item. For the File Name, enter C:\QSHOP\QSHOP.EXE (if that's what it is). The working directory will be C:\QSHOP. Click OK. That's all there is to it. Make sure you get rid of QSHOP.ZIP. You no longer need this file after you have unzipped it.
