THIS PROGRAM MAY BE DISTRIBUTED FREELY PROVIDED THAT NO FILES ARE ADDED, SUBTRACTED OR ALTERED IN ANY WAY.
INSTALLING FOR THE 1ST TIME:
THIS IS A VERY EASY PROGRAM TO INSTALL & USE.
THE MAIN FILE IS CALLED 'ROADMAP.HLP' BUT YOU MAY HAVE IT ZIPPED OR COMPRESSED IN 'YELLOWS.ZIP' DEPENDING ON WHERE YOU FOUND IT.
WHEN UNZIPPED THERE ARE ONLY TWO FILES TO WORRY ABOUT.
1. ROADMAP.HLP (THE MAIN WINDOWS HELP FILE FORMAT USING OUR PROGRAM.)
2. THIS README.TXT FILE
TO INSTALL
<IF YOU RECEIVED IT IN THE .ZIP FORMAT, YOU MUST 1ST UNZIP IT>
THEN, OR IF YOU RECEIVED IN .HLP FORMAT ...
MERELY COPY 'ROADMAP.HLP'
TO A PLACE IN A DIRECTORY.
(If you have Windows, you have a subdirectory called Windows. You could put it there by typing, 'COPY A:*.* C:\WINDOWS'. Even better, make a directory called 'c:\yellows' and place our file there. The command FROM A DOS PROMPT IS 'MD\YELLOWS')
THEN PULL DOWN 'FILE' MENU IN WINDOWS PROGRAM MANAGER,
THEN CHOOSE 'RUN' COMMAND.
THEN TYPE IN NAME OF FILE WITH PATH. I.E. '\WINDOWS\ROADMAP.HLP'
OR IN EXAMPLE 2. '\EBOOKS\ROADMAP.HLP'
THE ELECTRONIC BOOK WILL POP ON SCREEN
IN THE FUTURE: All you have to do is get the latest file from the same place you found the first file and unzip it and then copy the BOOKOFFR.HLP file to the same place you installed the first version and the new one will replace it automatically. Only the first needs all this installation. After that all you need is the 'BOOKOFFR.HLP' File to replace the previous month's version. REMEMBER: We update it every month with new listings, so you'll always want to have the latest one on your desktop with many more NEW LISTINGS. }}}
If it will not pop up after doing all of the above ...
A NOTE ABOUT WINDOWS 'ASSOCIATE' COMMAND.
{If you receive a message that no association exists for this file, or any error message talking about 'ASSOCIATION' ... All you have to do is go to File Manager in Windows, Click on the File Menu, click on ASSOCIATE, on this menu. The ASSOCIATE FILES WINDOW COMES UP and in the upper box THAT SAYS 'FILES WITH EXTENSION:' ... You type in 'HLP' and in the box under it, 'ASSOCIATE WITH' You type in 'WINHELP.EXE'. Then, run the program and go on to next step which puts it into a program group with its own ICON.}
TO HAVE THE INTERACTIVE YELLOW PAGES APPEAR AS AN ICON WHENEVER YOU ENTER WINDOWS:
THE FOLLOWING WILL PLACE AN ICON IN THE GROUP
1. Click on the group you want the icon to appear. THIS WILL SELECT IT.
2. Pull down 'New' AND THEN 'Item' in the PROGRAM Manager Menu.
3. Type in the name of the Program - 'InterActive Yellow Pages'
or just type 'EBOOK' to take up less space on screen.
THIS IS THE DESCRIPTION BOX.
IN THE COMMAND LINE BOX...
4. Type in the Path TO THE ROADMAP.HLP FILE. This will vary depending on where you placed the 'BOOKOFFR.hlp' file.
If you copied it to a subdirectory called C:\ROADMAP
Then you would type the path -> 'C:\ROADMAP\ROADMAP.HLP'
5. Then click on OK to close the window.
6. If you did everything correctly, the next time, you go into Windows,
the BOOK WILL appear. (KEEP us in a Window that you use frequently so that you never forget and you will have it available for research at any moment.)
8. Always save your configuration which is usually automatic.
That's all there is to it. Enjoy it and use it in good health.
