Welcome to the Advanced Database Environment (ADE)!

In this free-trial version of ADE, we present you a powerful Grid VBX
which is one of the nine VBXs in the ADE package.

To install the ADE Grid control, we recommend that you unzip the 
ADEVBX.ZIP file to an empty floppy disk or a designated directory on
your hard drive or your network.  Get into the Windows and run the 
SETUP.EXE file as you do for other Windows products.  We strongly 
recommend you to read the README.TXT file after the installation, which 
contains the last minute changes and updates.  You will not get any 
icons that identify the ADE VBXs.  To make the Grid work for you, you
need to run VB, and Add a New File (ADEGRID.VBX) to your project as you 
normally would.

We hope you like the product and we would like to hear from you.

REMEMBER:  There are eight other great ADE VBXs (see "Components of
ADE/VBX" in "Getting Started" section of ADE on-line help) such as ADE 
data control, combo box, list box, button control, query builder, 
query editor, and tool bar.  If you like the grid, we are sure you will 
find the other eight more exciting!
