If you've ever wished you could easily handle your payroll with a Windows program, WITHOUT SPENDING TIME READING A MANUAL, then MWPR - Medlin Windows Payroll is the program for you! This program is very quick and easy to use. MWPR - Medlin Windows Payroll is a shareware program. This evaluation version includes all features of the program. You may use it for up to 30 days, without charge (see MWPR.HLP for more details). If you like the program, and wish to continue its use after this evaluation period, you are required to pay for the program. Any fee you may have paid to others (disk vendors, dealers, etc.) to obtain this evaluation version was a fee for their copying and distribution services, rather than a payment for continued use of the program. ===== Installation ===================================== The installation procedure for MWPR - MEDLIN WINDOWS PAYROLL is quite simple. MWPR requires less than 1 megabite of disk space. The program requires no changes to any existing files on your hard disk. INSTALLING FROM A ZIP FILE If you downloaded MWPR from a BBS (or received it in the form of zipped files from some other source), perform the following steps. o Use the File Manager or drop to DOS to create a directory on your hard drive. You may use any allowable directory name, but we recommend MWACCT to be consistent with the setup program supplied with the diskette version. Change directory into the new directory. o Run the unzip program by typing PKUNZIP MWPR10 from the DOS prompt or from the File/Run section of Program Manager. o You may run the program directly from File Manager or create a program group and a program item using File/New in Program Manager. You must have a copy of VBRUN300.DLL in your Windows System directory for the MWPR program to run. Chances are you already do. If not, you may download VBRUN300.DLL from any BBS. YOU'RE READY TO GO Once you've complete the installation, you should consult the help file ("MWPR.HLP"). You may read the MWPR.HLP by double clicking it from the File Manager or by pressing F1 from inside MWPR or by choosing HELP from the MWPR menu bar. The help file allows you to read the entire file sequentually by clicking the >> symbol.
