Installing WinCIS

        What you Should Know to Use WinCIS

        Before installing and using WinCIS, you should have a basic
        knowledge of your computer and the Windows environment.  In
        particular, you should be familiar with the use of menus,
        windows, and dialog boxes and other controls typically used
        in the Windows environment.

        You should be able to select items by highlighting them with
        the arrow keys, or clicking on them with the mouse.  You must
        also have an understanding of the operation of your modem.

        For more information about the Windows operating system, refer
        to your Microsoft Windows User Guide.  For more information about
        your modem, refer to the manual that came with your modem.


WinCIS Prerequisites

        WinCIS requires the following minimum hardware and software
        environment to run acceptably:

        An IBM PC, PS/2 or 100% compatible computer.

        A 386/20 CPU chip, (386-33 recommended).

        At least one floppy disk drive of 1.2MB 5.25" or a 720K 3.5"
        floppy and a hard disk.

        At least 2 megabytes or more of RAM.  The more RAM you have the
        better WinCIS will run.

        Approximately  1.5 megabytes of free space on your hard disk
        drive in order to install the complete WinCIS product.  If you
        already have some of the required DLL's the space will be
        correspondingly less.

        Microsoft Windows 3.0 or 3.1 running enhanced mode installed on
        your system.

        An Asynchronous modem from 1200 - 9600 Baud.

        WinCIS may run on configurations that do not meet these minimum
        requirements, however, the performance may not be acceptable.


Downloading from CompuServe

        The following is a list of the files necessary for downloading
        from CompuServe:
 
        The naming convention used is WCnnnX where:

                WC  ....... indicates WinCIS
                nnn ....... indicates version
                X   ....... Sequence

        For example:

        WC092A.ZIP containing the installation notes for WinCIS
                   Version .94E


        The files on CompuServe are as follows:

        NOTE: For those of you UPGRADING from PRIOR releases
        you should only require WCnnnC and WCnnnD:

        WCnnnA.ZIP .... Installation Notes (this file)
                        and README.WRI Getting Started Manual

        WCnnnB.ZIP .... Main Program Files 1 of 4 (REQUIRED)

        VBRUN3.ZIP .... VBRUN300.DLL This is the visual basic runtine
                        library.  (REQUIRED)

                        This file is REQUIRED  and can be found in
                        several forums:

                                MSBASIC............. VB Files  VBRUN3.ZIP
                                WUGNET.............. (WinCIS)  VBRUN3.ZIP

                        However Check your

                                \WINDOWS
                        or      \WINDOWS\SYSTEM

                        directories and see if this file (VBRUN300.DLL)
                        is present on your system.  If so then there
                        is no need to download this file.

                        This file is NOT INSTALLED by the installation
                        procedure.  Simply unpack this file into your
                        \WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory if you need it.


        If you download WinCIS from CompuServe copy the files
        onto a 1.2 or 1.4 diskette and save them for future reference
        prior to running the installation.


FOR FIRST TIME INSTALLATIONS...

To INSTALL WinCIS create a directory called WinCIS and 
unzip the WCnnnB...D files using the -d option of pkunzip

        For example:

          C:>MD \WINCIS
          C:>CD \WINCIS

        + + + + IMPORTANT + + + +

        IT IS VERY IMPORTANT that you use the -d switch in order
        for PKUNZIP to create and unpack the files into the 
        appropriate subdirectories...

          C:\WINCIS>PKUNZIP -d A:WCnnn*.ZIP


        After you have installed the files you will find a Windows 
        WINCIS.GRP file that you can add to PROGMAN in the \WINCIS 
        directory.  To do so go to Windows progman and select 
        FILE/NEW..  

        For the description enter...     WINCIS
        For the group file enter....     C:\WINCIS\WINCIS.GRP

        If you have placed WinCIS on a differnt drive or directory 
        than C:\WINCIS you will have to modify the WINCIS program 
        group items by holding down the alt-key and double-clicking 
        on the program items.  Then corrent the command line and or 
        working directory as appropriate..
