INSTALLATION:

We have created a setup procedure that minimizes the amount of 
data files you need to download (currently about 285 Kb).

Follow these steps to install Setup Manager:
   
  1. Create a directory C:\CESETUP
  2. Unzip the SETUP.ZIP files into this directory.
  3. Run SETUP.EXE from the directory containing the unzipped files.
  4. Follow the instructions of Setup.
     
     ** IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THE DIRECTORY CHOSEN IN SETUP.EXE ** 
     ** IS IDENTICAL TO THE DIRECTORY CHOSEN IN STEP 1.        **

  5. To save disk space, delete all the files in C:\CESETUP except
     the following:

	CESETUP.EXE
	CESETUP.HLP
	COMPRESS.EXE
	SETUP.EXE
	SETUP.LST

IMPORTANT:
=========     
     You will not be able to run SETUP.EXE if you do not have
     VBRUN300.DLL located in your Windwos\System directory.  We
     have made this presumption to limit the amount of data you
     needed to download.  VBRUN300.DLL is available on CompuServe
     and also on the Internet.
