    - EmGee Software Installer/Uninstaller Readme File -


The  installer and uninstaller that came with this  software
are part of another package that will soon be available from
EmGee Software. The  information  in  this  file applies  to
version 1.1 of both the installer and uninstaller.

INSTALLER (Setup.exe)
---------------------
Files used by the installer -

SETUP.EXE
The   installer.  Uses  a  simple  script  to  quickly   and
reliably  get   the program installed on your system.   This
file  MUST  be present in the directory  where  the   source
files are or  the installation  will abort.

SETUP.INI
Setup   uses   this   file to install  the  files  to   your
system.  Please do not edit this file; doing  so  may  cause
unpredictable results.   This  file  MUST be present in  the
directory   where the source files  are, or the installation
will abort.

QPRO200.DLL
Setup   uses  this file for low level functions used  during
the  install.  This  file  must be  present  in  the  source
directory  or \windows\system.

MSAFINX.DLL
Setup uses this file for various  date  comparison routines.
This  file  must  be  present in  the  source  directory  or
\windows\system.

Control over the installation -

Depending    on   the   settings in SETUP.INI,   you    will
be  prompted    for  certain things during the  installation
process.  Typically, you will be prompted   for   permission
to  create a program   group  and  icons  and possibly about
your  startup group.

All  important information about the installation is  logged
to  SETUP.LOG.  Files  actually  installed  on your  system,
any    directories that  were  created,   the program  group
name, and any startup group items are logged.

If any file in \windows\system needs to be replaced you will
be prompted. Any files in the application directory will  be
overwritten  by default (in the case  of  upgrading  from  a
previous   version).   This  version   of   EmGee   Software
Installer/Uninstaller  does  not  put  any   files  in   the
\windows directory.

Overwrite responses -

    Yes - Overwrites  the  target file with the newer file.
    Yes To All - Overwrites any files that are older.

    No - The target file is not overwritten.
    No To All - Do not overwrite any files.

    Backup - Backup the file, then install  the  newer  one.
    Backup  All - Backup all files that need to be replaced.

Reinstalling -

If    you   need  to reinstall the application,  first   run
the  uninstaller   to  remove  the files from  your  system.
This  allows   the installer  to relog  all the installation
files  correctly.    If    you   do   not  uninstall  before
reinstalling, SETUP.LOG  may  not  show  all  of  the  files
used    by    the  application,   which   would   make   the
uninstaller    nearly worthless.

Trouble with the installer -

The reasons most likely to cause trouble with the installer:

    Insufficient disk space
	Free up some disk space and try again.

    A older file that needs to be copied over is in use
	Shut down all other applications and try again. You 
	may also ignore this error,  but  I don't recommend
	that.

    Setup.ini is corrupt or has been tampered with
	Get a good copy of the application and try again.

If    none    of    this   applies  or   works   then    you
can  manually  install the  application. The files that came
with  application   should  NOT be individually  compressed,
although  you   may  have  received  them  in   an  archive,
such   as  a zip  file.  To manually install the application
follow   these general rules:

Copy   any  .VBX,  .DLL, and .OCX files to  \windows\system.
Take care   to not  overwrite  more  recent  files. When  in
doubt, don't   overwrite  anything.  Copy  everything   else
to   the application directory  of  your choice.

As    an   alternative,  if  you  just  want  to   try   out
the application  and  you are  running  Windows  95,    then
you   can   also    put   EVERYTHING   in   the  application
directory  of your  choice.  This works because on a Windows
95   system   the application  directory is the first  place
that  is  searched for the    external  files.  While   this
does   work,  it  is  not recommended,  because  it  defeats
the   purpose   of   sharing resources,  and  possibly  uses
more disk space  than  would  be normally required. This may
also  work  under Windows 3.x, but I think    the     search
sequence   is   different   (searches \windows\system before
the application directory).

UNINSTALLER (Uninstal.exe)
--------------------------
Files used by the installer -

UNINSTAL.EXE
The  uninstaller.  Reads  a simple  script  and   uninstalls
exactly what you allow it to. This file MUST  be present  in
the   same directory  as  SETUP.LOG  or  the  uninstallation
will abort.

SETUP.LOG
The     uninstaller  uses this file to remove  the   program
and  it's  files from your system. Please do  not  edit this
file; doing  so  may   cause unpredictable results.

Control over the uninstallation -

You   will  have  full  control  over   the   uninstallation
process. You will be prompted to select the files and  other
items   you  would like to have removed. By  using  standard
shift-click   and ctrl-click methods you may tag  individual
files for removal.

WARNING:     Use   caution   when   removing   files    from
windows\system.  Even   if   they   were   logged   by   the
installer, that  does   not mean that they  are   not  being
used  by another application on your system.

NOTE:   On   some  systems  using SHARE.EXE  or   VSHARE.386
the   uninstaller    may    not    be    able   to    remove
UNINSTAL.EXE,    the   directory   the    application    was
installed  in,  and  possibly other   files if they  are  in
use.  This is a known   limitation of   the  EmGee  Software
Installer/Uninstaller. In this  case,  you    will  have  to
manually   remove  those  items.  Those  of    you   running
Windows     95   will   probably   not   encounter      this
problem.

Trouble with the uninstaller -

The most likely errors you will get:

    Cannot remove FILENAME.EXT
	This will  occur if the  file is in use or does  not
	exist.   The application may still uninstall cleanly
	if you get this error.

    Cannot remove directory DIRNAME
    	This will occur  if there are  still  files  in  the
	directory,   such  as  data  files  created  by  the
	application but not tracked by the uninstaller. This
	error will result in an incomplete uninstall.

    Cannot remove program group GROUPNAME
	This  will  occur  if  you  have deleted the group or
	have moved  it  to another location.  The application
	may still uninstall cleanly if you get this error.

    Cannot remove program item ITEMNAME
	This will occur if you have deleted the item or moved
	it.  The  application  may still uninstall cleanly if 
	you get this error.

The  important thing to realize here is  that not all  errors 
are  fatal  and that the uninstall may go  perfect  even with
errors.
