       If you need assistance installing Accesses.
	****************************************

Please don't try to break the registration code.  At $19
Accesses is dirt cheap, especially if you knew how much work
went into the development.

All of the following programs are compiled to operate only in the
Standard and Enhanced modes of Windows 3.0 and all modes of
Windows 3.1.  They will not launch in the Real Mode of Windows 3.0.

Eventually, everyone should read CHANGES.TXT. Significant topics
are summarized.

The ACCE27.ZIP (or ACCE7D.ZIP) file contains the following
program files:

	ACCESSES.EXE	The main program. The Windows 3.0
			is in ACCE27.ZIP whereas the Windows
			3.1 version is in ACCE7D.ZIP. Look at
			the Help+About to see which version
			you may have.

			The Windows 3.1 version of Accesses
			requires Microsoft's SHELL.DLL dated
			12/91 or later (included in Windows 3.1.
			This version of	Accesses will work in
			Windows 3.0 if Shell.dll is in the SYSTEM
			directory of Windows 3.0.

	ACCESSES.HLP	The help file in Windows
			HELP format.

	README.TXT	This file.
	VENDOR.TXT	Shareware and Vendor info.
	REGISTER.FRM	Registration Information.

        ARCHIVES.TXT	required reading and special offer for
			Archives users.

	NORTON.TXT	An important note to Norton Desktop
			users.

	CHANGES.TXT	Required reading for previous
			Accesses version users. VERY INTERESTING
			READING FOR OTHERS!

	ACCDRIVE.EXE	Tiny pop-up that displays the free
			drive space. This pop-up must be
			launched thru Accesses' Setup menu
			since Accesses provides "the engine"
			to run the pop-up. The pop-up is a
			"bare bones" window and will NOT
			operate without Accesses.

	DAYALARM.EXE	Tiny Calendar, daily alarm, and
			date calculator.  This program uses
			the ACCESSES.INI file for initialization
			data.  The program was developed to
			use less than 1% of your system
			resources so it can be on your computer
			all of the time.  This program can be
			launched without Accesses after Accesses
			has built the INI file.

	BULLETIN.TXT	Recommends the text to use when uploading
			the ZIP files to bulletin boards.

When you register ACCESSES, you are automatically registered for
both the WIN 3.0 and 3.1 versions and for ACCDRIVE and DAYALARM!

You MUST Place ACCESSES.EXE and ACCESSES.HLP in the same 
directory as the TASKMAN.EXE windows program. You must have 
ACCESSES.HLP installed for the installation to work properly. After
about a week, you can delete Accesses.hlp if you are short on disk
space.

Accesses creates ACCESSES.INI when Accesses is 1st started if an 
ACCESSES.INI doesn't already exist.  Accesses automatically updates
older version ACCESSES.INI files.

Please read at least until you see the asterisk separator. ie: 
************ so the INI file is properly setup!

REMEMBER TWO IMPORTANT ITEMS FOR ACCESSES:

1.   FILE EXTENSIONS ARE PREFERRED but not required

2.   You MUST go thru the TUTOR in ACCESSES.HLP

NEW USERS must READ TUTOR in Accesses.hlp. This takes 5-10 minutes
& it explains how to TEMPORARILY REGISTER ACCESSES TO AVOID THE NAG
Windows as well as explains how to use Accesses.

To Norton Desktop USERS:  READ NORTON.TXT.

Follow these steps BEFORE LAUNCHING ACCESSES for the 1st time...

During the installation process you will automatically be storing 
currently opened window positions to your ACCESSES.INI file.  All
of this can be easily edited by Accesses later but it helps to
do some now.  DON'T WORK TOO HARD AT THIS!  You can easily modify
the setup from Accesses later!

1.   Make a backup copy of your WIN.INI file and SYSTEM.INI 
files NOW.  I will ask you if I can add taskman.exe=accesses.exe
to your SYSTEM.INI file during the installation. (This change is
not required but strongly recommended. I also ask during the
installation if I can append accesses.exe to the load= line of
your WIN.INI.  This will start Accesses automatically when you
start Windows (your choice).

2.   open one copy each of 5 or 6 of your most frequently 
used programs before running ACCESSES. Open Windows File Manager 
(or equivalent) and open the File Manager's 'About' Box (under the 
Help menu) and if your 'Free System Resources are greater than 
40% open more windows until this number is between 30 to 40%, but 
not less than 30%. eg. Open one each of Notepad, Write, Excel, 
Winword, Am, calculator,..., etc If you're running windows in 
the Enhanced Mode, open a DOS window as well and place the DOS 
window where you want it to be placed.

If you are running Windows 3.1, don't open more than 30
or so windows to avoid all of this taking too long or slowing
Windows down too much.  Accesses can handle up to 100 windows,
but Windows gets really slow.

3.   Close or minimize duplicate programs. For example, Run
only one 'Notepad'. If you want to keep a duplicate program open, 
minimized the program whose position you do not want to store. 
(TUTOR will explain how to save both in a separate procedure 
after the installation.)

4.   Move these programs to the window positions that you 
want them to normally be in when in the 'Restored' (not maximized 
and not minimized) positions. USE THE RESTORED POSITION for all 
of these WINDOWS.  Tutor explains how to change any or all of
these positions if you want to make changes later - it's easy.

3.   Then launch ACCESSES for the 1st time.

Everyone should read CHANGES.TXT.  CHANGES.TXT covers many user
requested additions to Accesses that are "special features" and
are sometimes not documented in ACCESSES.HLP.
