What is Word PhoneBook
======================

Word PhoneBook is an Add-In for Microsoft Word for Windows 95 and 97.
It is a database of names, addresses and fax numbers that automates
the process of writing letters, faxes and envelopes under Word. The
approach is different to other similar utilities in that it uses
variables that are defined in your Word templates, in the places you
want the data to be inserted. 

Word PhoneBook Lite is free for you to use. There is a limitation of
50 names in the database, but other from that, the program will
enable you to work with your documents in a much more convenient way.

In addition the commercial version of Word PhoneBook, Word PhoneBook
Pro, has the option to extract from the database selected records and
create a Mail Merge data document. Also, a comprehensive Import and
Export Wizard is provided so that you can share your database with
virtually any other program.

Installing and uninstalling Word PhoneBook
==========================================

Installing Word PhoneBook
-------------------------

You may have received Word PhoneBook in one of two possible forms:

* In a single executable file. In this case you should execute the
  program and follow the directions.

* In a compressed archive. In this case you should uncompress the
  archive to a temporary directory and execute the file SETUP.EXE
  which is included in the archive. Once the installation of Word
  PhoneBook has finished you may delete the temporary directory and
  its contents.

Upgrading from a previous version of Word PhoneBook
---------------------------------------------------

If you are upgrading from a previous 2.x version of Word PhoneBook, your
old database files will be converted to the new format used by
version 3.x. Note that once the database has been converted, it will
not be read by Word PhoneBook 2.x.

Uninstalling Word PhoneBook
---------------------------

To completely uninstall Word PhoneBook from your computer and recover
all disk space used by the program you may execute the unistallation
routine that will be installed on your system. To do so you may use
two different methods:

* Open the Start Menu/Word PhoneBook folder and select Uninstall Word
  PhoneBook

* Open the Control Panel and the Add/Remove Programs applet. Select 
  Word PhoneBook in the Install/Uninstall tab and click on the
  Add/Remove button

In either case you should select the Automatic Uninstallation to
ensure that Word PhoneBook is completely removed from your system,
including all files used, directories created, start menu folders and
registry settings. Once the uninstallation routine is finished there
will no trace of Word PhoneBook on your computer.
