Requirements

To use this product, you will require an IBM-compatible PC with:

- Microsoft Windows 3.11
- At least 6MB of free disk space.

  experience a severe reduction in performance).

IMPORTANT
=========
If you have a Beta copy of the Report Writer, you must remove it (including
r_design.ini and r_connct.ini) before installing the current release. Failure
to do so will result in termination of the installation procedure.


Installation Instructions

To install this product:

1.Insert the first Report Writer disk in a diskette drive (e.g. A:) on the PC.
2.Run the SETUP program from the diskette. For example, select the Run option
  from the Program Manager's File menu, type A:\SETUP and press Enter
  (assuming you used drive A in step 1).
3.Reply to the prompts displayed by the SETUP program.
4.When installation has finished, you will have a new Program Group
  containing icons to run Report Writer, Report Viewer, view the README file
  and uninstall the Report Writer. We recommend that you read or print the
  README file first as this contains any last-minute information that was
  not available when the printed documentation was prepared.


De-installation Instructions

If you want to de-install Report Writer, do so as follows:

1.First, backup any user-created files (such as Projects or Stylesheets)
  that you might want to keep.
2.Run the UNINSTALL program by selecting its icon from the Report Writer
  Program Folder/Group.
3.Reply to the prompts displayed by the UNINSTALL program.

IMPORTANT: If you have any other files in the folder in which the Report
Writer was installed, then they will be removed along with those for the
Report Writer.
