CashTrac 6.08 Installation Instructions
Chapter 2 of the 60 page instruction manual provided on your new
distribution diskette describes the CashTrac installation procedure in
detail. Documentation may be printed to a printer or to disk and may
be read using the DOS MORE command (see DOS manual). This instruction
sheet explains how to print the manual and complete the installation.
Printing the complete manual:
Printing the instruction manual requires 60 pages of paper. Make sure
your printer is set to the top of a page and is turned on. Boot your
computer, set the default drive to A:, and put CashTrac distribution
disk in drive A:. Run the configuration program by typing CONFIG
followed by the Enter key. Press any key to go to the main menu, then
select option 2 (Printing Documentation). To print to disk, in the
"Where to print" field, select a drive letter such as B or C and have
a disk with 140K free space in that drive, otherwise leave "P" for
printer. Use the Enter or cursor down key to go to the Start Page
field and select "i" (without the quotes) to start printing with the
title page. Leave the "Where is file" and End Page fields blank and
press the End key to begin printing.
Printing selected pages of the manual:
If you decide to print individual pages later, repeat the above
process, but select only the pages required to be printed. Please
note that the documentation files are squeezed slightly and may only
be printed using the CashTrac configuration program. Print to disk to
unsqueeze the files for reading on the screen or loading in an editor
program. The file unsqueezed to disk is named CT6DOC.TXT.
Completing the installation:
When the manual is complete, press Esc to return to the main menu,
then exit to DOS. Do not attempt to run the main CashTrac program at
this point, otherwise errors (Error 54, but no damage) will occur. To
complete the installation, follow the detailed procedure in Chapter 2,
which consists of:
* Putting the command SET CT6=X in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file (otherwise
an ERROR 7 "out of memory" error will result under some
circumstances),
* Making new system and data disks, or an appropriate hard disk
subdirectory,
* Copying files to the appropriate disks,
* Running the configuration program to set colors and other default
values, and
* Converting old CashTrac data to the new format.
Again, to avoid problems, please read the manual. Good luck and happy
CashTrac-ing!
