Copying DBCO1N.EXE to a hard drive is recommended before unpacking.  Window's
File Manager can be used to install the program.  Use the following procedure
after starting File Manager:

      1. Select Create Directory from the File menu.  Enter the directory name
         and location (if different then current drive).  (Example: \DBCOIN)

      2. Select source disk drive (A or B) containing DBCO1N.EXE.  Select
         DBCO1N.EXE from the list of files.  Select Copy from the File menu. 
         Enter new directory name created in #1 and press Enter.

      3. Select drive containing DBCO1N.EXE.  Select new directory created in
         #1.  Select DBCO1N.EXE and press Enter.

dBCoin will now be unpacked in the new directory.  Refer to the User's Guide
(DBCOIN.DOC) for instructions on adding dBCoin to an application group.  The
dBCoin icon will appear on the screen after the program is added to an
application group.
