FILES INCLUDED IN THIS PACKAGE

README.TXT - this file
INSTALL.EXE - an installation utility
INSTALL.DAT - data for install.exe
_FILES.ZIP - a compressed file in PKZip/Winzip format containing:

habcal.exe (the program file)
habcal.hlp (the Help file)


INSTALLATION

The Install.exe utility in this package makes installation very easy. All you have to do is to run Install and either accept the suggested folder or enter a different folder name. The files will be copied to the correct locations.

If you have received this package as a "ZIP" file, you will probably already have "unzipped" the installation files or be reading this file in "Winzip" or a similar utility. If you are using Winzip, simply click on the Winzip Install button and the installation utility will start.

If you have received the package on disk or have already unzipped the files, locate the folder (directory) which holds the files and run Install.

You can run Install as follows

  1. Click on the Start button, select "Run" and enter the command-line [your folder name]\install
       eg "C:\temp\install" or "A:\install" and click on [OK].
  2. The install utility will prompt you for the name of a folder to hold the HABcal files.

    Use the path suggested unless you have a good reason not to (eg. you are already using a folder named C:\habcal)

    You will have the option of installing Start Menu shortcuts for the files.

    When you click on the [OK] button, the files will be installed to the folder you have chosen.


MANUAL INSTALLATION

  1. Create a folder for your HABcal files. (C:\habcal is suggested)
  2. Find the folder containing the extracted files and copy _files.zip and Readme.txt to your HABcal folder.
  3. Change folders to your HABcal folder and use an unzip utility to extract the files.
    eg. if you are using the pkunzip utility, you would use the command "pkunzip _files.zip"
  4. Create Start Menu or Desktop shortcuts in the normal manner.

UNINSTALLING HABcal

  1. Delete the files habcal.exe and habcal.hlp. If you created a folder for HABcal and it no longer contains files then delete it also.
  2. If you installed shortcuts:-
    Delete any HABCal shortcuts on the Desktop and in the Start Menu.
