THIS PROGRAM MAY BE DISTRIBUTED FREELY PROVIDED THAT NO FILES ARE ADDED, SUBTRACTED OR ALTERED IN ANY WAY. We update the file 'YELLOWSX.HLP' MONTHLY. So, if this is a new update for you and you have already installed the InterActive Yellow Pages on your Desktop, all you need to do now is unzip this file and copy the NEW 'YELLOWSX.HLP' file you just downloaded into the same subdirectory where you placed it in the first place and everything will work as before except you'll now see the latest version. (WHERE X = LATEST MONTH NUMBER) INSTALLING FOR THE 1ST TIME: THIS IS A VERY EASY PROGRAM TO INSTALL & USE. THE MAIN FILE IS CALLED 'YELLOWS.HLP' BUT YOU MAY HAVE IT ZIPPED OR COMPRESSED IN 'YELLOWS.ZIP' DEPENDING ON WHERE YOU FOUND IT. WHEN UNZIPPED THERE ARE ONLY TWO FILES TO WORRY ABOUT. 1. YELLOWS.HLP (THE MAIN WINDOWS HELP FILE FORMAT USING OUR PROGRAM.) 2. THIS README.TXT FILE TO INSTALL THEN, OR IF YOU RECEIVED IN .HLP FORMAT ... MERELY COPY 'YELLOWS.HLP' TO A PLACE IN A DIRECTORY. (If you have Windows, you have a subdirectory called Windows. You could put it there by typing, 'COPY A:*.* C:\WINDOWS'. Even better, make a directory called 'c:\yellows' and place our file there. The command FROM A DOS PROMPT IS 'MD\YELLOWS') THEN PULL DOWN 'FILE' MENU IN WINDOWS PROGRAM MANAGER, THEN CHOOSE 'RUN' COMMAND. THEN TYPE IN NAME OF FILE WITH PATH. I.E. '\WINDOWS\YELLOWS.HLP' OR IN EXAMPLE 2. '\YELLOWS\YELLOWS.HLP' THE INTERACTIVE YELLOW PAGES WILL POP ON THE SCREEN. IN THE FUTURE: All you have to do is get the latest file from the same place you found the first file and unzip it and then copy the YELLOWS.HLP file to the same place you installed the first version and the new one will replace it automatically. Only the first needs all this installation. After that all you need is the 'YELLOWS.HLP' File to replace the previous month's version. REMEMBER: We update it every month with new listings, so you'll always want to have the latest one on your desktop with many more NEW LISTINGS. }}} If it will not pop up after doing all of the above ... A NOTE ABOUT WINDOWS 'ASSOCIATE' COMMAND. {If you receive a message that no association exists for this file, or any error message talking about 'ASSOCIATION' ... All you have to do is go to File Manager in Windows, Click on the File Menu, click on ASSOCIATE, on this menu. The ASSOCIATE FILES WINDOW COMES UP and in the upper box THAT SAYS 'FILES WITH EXTENSION:' ... You type in 'HLP' and in the box under it, 'ASSOCIATE WITH' You type in 'WINHELP.EXE'. Then, run the program and go on to next step which puts it into a program group with its own ICON.} >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>><<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU KEEP THE PROGRAM RUNNING IN A PROGRAM GROUP WITH ITS OWN ICON SO THAT YOU CAN FIND IT OFTEN AND QUICKLY.
