The INSTALL program can make some very necessary changes to AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS for you, or you can make them yourself if you are leery of having installation programs mess with your system. If you choose to have the program do it for you, the original copies of your programs will be backed up first, so the changes are reversible. If you have the program make these changes for you, then skip step (2.). (2.) Add the program directory to your PATH environment variable in AUTOEXEC.BAT or at the DOS prompt. If you already have a PATH statement in AUTOEXEC.BAT, then append a semicolon before appending the directory. Example: PATH C:\DOS;C:\UTIL;C:\WP;C:\SPELL If there is no PATH statement in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file, then you must enter the following: (Assuming the PROGRAM files were installed in "C:\SPELL") PATH C:\SPELL The PATH environment variable tells DOS where to search for commands it cannot find in the current directory. When you type "SPELL" from the DATA directory, DOS will not be able to find SPELL.EXE in the current directory. It will look through the directories listed in the PATH statement.
