Automatic installation of STATISTICA (setup.exe) is highly recommended 
and you should use the manual installation ONLY if the automatic program 
fails.

To install STATISTICA manually, please follow the instructions below:

NOTE:  Manual installation of STATISTICA should be done from DOS and not 
from a DOS session under Windows.

1. On your hard drive, create a directory for STATISTICA (e.g. C:\STAT) 
   and a subdirectory for the example data files (e.g. C:\STAT\EXAMPLES).

2. Copy all of the files with the file extension ".ST_" from any of the
   installation diskettes that have these files (you will need to check
   each diskette individually) to the examples subdirectory that you 
   created in the previous step (e.g. C:\STAT\EXAMPLES).

3. Copy all of the other files from each of the diskettes to your 
   STATISTICA directory (e.g. C:\STAT).

4. This step is applicable only if you have Windows 3.0; if you have a
   higher version, please go to step 5.  If you do have Windows 3.0 and
   you don't have the following files in your WINDOWS or WINDOWS\SYSTEM
   directory:
        COMMDLG.DLL
        DDEML.DLL
        SHELL.DLL
        VER.DLL
        WINHELP.EXE
   then you will need to expand these files in the WINDOWS\SYSTEM 
   directory using the following commands.  (Note that these commands 
   assume that the STATISTICA directory is named "STAT" and the Windows 
   directory is named "WINDOWS." If they are different, simply substitute 
   your directory names for these in the commands below.)
        expand c:\stat\COMMDLG.DL_ c:\windows\system
        expand c:\stat\DDEML.DL_ c:\windows\system
        expand c:\stat\SHELL.DL_ c:\windows\system
        expand c:\stat\VER.DL_ c:\windows\system
        expand c:\stat\WINHELP.EX_ c:\windows

5. Now, delete the following files from your C:\STAT directory:
        COMMDLG.DL_
        DDEML.DL_
        SHELL.DL_
        VER.DL_
        WINHELP.EX_
   
6. In the C:\STAT directory decompress all files in the following manner:
      *.ex_ files should be renamed to *.exe;
            e.g. expand sta_dat.ex_ sta_dat.exe    
      *.dl_ files should be renamed to *.dll; 
            e.g. expand stl_fin.dl_ stl_fin.dll
      *.hl_ files should be renamed to *.hlp; 
            e.g. expand stathlp.hl_ stathlp.hlp

   Once you have expanded these files, you will need to delete all of the 
   *.ex_, *.dl_, and *.hl_ files in your C:\STAT directory.

7. In the C:\STAT\EXAMPLES directory decompress all *.st_ files to *.sta
   files; (e.g. expand adstudy.st_ adstudy.sta) and then delete all
   *.st_ files.

8. Run Windows. Create a Program Manager group called Statistica with the
   appropriate program items representing STATISTICA modules that you 
   intend to use the most (e.g. sta_win.exe, sta_bas.exe, etc.). Click on 
   a module icon to start the desired program. Alternatively, you can run 
   sta_win.exe (or sta_bas.exe, etc.) from the Windows File Manager or 
   Program Manager.

Before you start using STATISTICA, please review the readme.txt file 
(you should find it in your STATISTICA directory) for more information
and last-minute notes about the program. 

If you are not able to successfully install STATISTICA after following
these instructions, please call our Technical Support Department at 
(918) 583-4149, Mon-Fri, 9am - 6pm CT.

Thank you for choosing STATISTICA for Windows.
