SUMMARY
=======
The licensing agreement for version 1.0 of Microsoft Electronic Forms Designer
precludes installing the Designer files in a shared location on a network;
however, the form run-time files can be shared with no per-user fee required.
MORE INFORMATION
================
The network administrator can install the form run-time files for shared use by
following these steps:
1. Follow the instructions in the "Developer's Guide" to run Setup. Choose the
Server setup option and complete Server Setup by following the prompts.
2. Make sure you have write access to the shared Windows directories and that
shared Windows or Mail users are not currently running any of the following
products:
- Microsoft Visual Basic version 2.0 for Windows
- Applications created using Visual Basic 2.0
- Version 3.0 or 3.2 of Microsoft Mail for PC Networks
- Version 1.0 of Microsoft Schedule+ for Windows
- Microsoft Word version 2.0 for Windows
- Microsoft Excel version 4.0 for Windows
It may be easier to simply require all shared Windows users to exit Windows.
3. In the Windows File Manager, run the SETUP.EXE program that was created by
Server Setup in the location you specified. This is the User Setup, which
will upgrade shared files in the shared Windows directories and will also
create entries in your MSMAIL.INI file.
4. Copy the following entries from your MSMAIL.INI file into each user's
personal MSMAIL.INI file. Each entry is described in more detail in the
"Developer's Guide."

5. If Microsoft Excel users do not share an XLSTART directory for add-ons, copy
MEFROUTE.XLA into each user's personal XLSTART directory. This will install a
Route command into Excel.
6. If Microsoft Word users do not share NORMAL.DOT, run MEFRAUTO.DOC on each
user's machine to install a Route command into Word.
