Version Notes
-------------
Version 3.10 - October 24, 1995
============
- Version 3.10 of Setup Factory is a maintenance release that incorporates
  all of the bug fixes from Setup Factory 3.06 which is wonderfully stable.

- Added support for a DDE command string interface to Program Manager.
  This new feature allows you the flexibility to create or delete as 
  many icons and program groups as you want.  Although most people will 
  find Setup Factory's existing automatic icon and group creation is 
  sufficient for their needs, the DDE Commands interface will 
  provide you with the flexibility to:

  - Create multiple icons with different command line parameters.
  - Add icons to more than one program group.
  - Create icons that point to files on a CD-ROM.
  - Delete existing icons or groups.
  - Control the placement order by which icons are added to a group.

- Added support for appending lines to the autoexec.bat file.  Please see
  the Problems & Solutions section of this file for more information.



Problems & Solutions
--------------------
Problem #1: 
===========
What does the following error mean?
   
   "A file could not be copied to your chosen output path. 
    Root limit exceeded?"
   
Solution #1:
============
For you to have this problem you must be trying to fit more than 245
files on any ONE 1.44MB disk.  This means that you must have MANY, MANY
files that are 5KB or less.

In order to get around this limitation of DOS, Setup Factory allows you
to build your disk set to the A:\DATA or B:\DATA directories.  

To build your disk set, follow these steps:
   1 - Format the number of disks that Setup Factory said it required.
   2 - Create a directory on each disk called DATA.
       e.g. MD A:\DATA
   3 - On Setup Factory's main screen, set the Output To path to:
         A:\DATA (or B:\DATA).
   4 - Build your disk set.

The setup.exe or install.exe file will be copied to A:\ and the rest of
your files will be stored in A:\DATA.  The end user simply runs
A:\SETUP.EXE as usual, which will look for files in the DATA directory.


Problem #2: 
===========
How can I add my installation directory to the PATH statement in the
user's autoexec.bat file?
   
Solution #2:
============
Although this is a violation of sorts for Windows programs, if you still
feel you need to modify the user's PATH statement, simply follow the
steps below:

    1 - Enter the following command sequence in the INI Files Editor:

        C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT
        COMMON
        PATH %PATH%;%USERDIR%
        -
        -

    2 - This will append the %USERDIR% directory to the PATH environment
        variable.  If you are unfamiliar with the %USERDIR% Inline Variable
        or with the INI Files Editor, please refer to the online help or
        to your manual.

    3 - You must inform your user to reboot their system before the change
        to the autoexec.bat will be recognized.  Note that the original
        autoexec.bat will be renamed autoexec.old.

Note that you can use the same technique to append any number of lines
to the autoexec.bat file.  Just follow the same sequence of commands,
placing the line to append in the third field (Key).
