If you're viewing this file it should mean you have installed
the program successfully (see README.TXT that came with the
distribution archive if you are experiencing any installation
difficulties).
This little text file is just to point out that all of
Macro Mania's files reside in the subdirectory where you
installed it, along with the ICONS subdirectory created
directly beneath it. I have chosen to do this to help avoid
any conflicts with other programs and so you can easily identify
which files you may need to delete or copy/move to another PC.
Because some program(mers) do not correctly follow procedures
about installing files to the common Windows subdirectories
(e.g. \Windows and \Windows\System), common VBX's and DLL's
can get overwritten by OLDER versions and cause other programs
not to work. Thus, it is becoming common practice to install
a program's own files to its own subdirectory. Although this
takes a little more hard drives space, it is safer and ends up
saving users a lot of hassle in the long run. Given that one's
time is usually much more of a premium than hard disk space (in
fact, I've found that while hard disk prices continue to drop,
the demand on my time continues to increase <g>), this policy is
quickly becoming popular. If you wish to experiment about which
VBX's and DLL's you think will safely reside in your Windows\System
subdirectory and are experienced enough to do so, you *MAY* wish
to copy those files as needed. I only recommend this if hard
disk space is an absolute premium and you are experienced
enough to do so.
