NOTE:     This is a page taken from the manual (file: MANUAL.TXT).  It is
          placed here for your convenience.  Please note that this current
          version of FundRaiser Basic was released about the same time as
          Windows 95, so these instructions may be slightly different for
          that new release.
   
          And, yes, I am working on a Windows version.  I expect it to be
          available in mid 1996 - but this is not a promise.  However,
          registered users of this DOS version will be able to upgrade to
          the Windows version for a reasonable amount, and will be the 
          first to hear about it.  Any of you want to be a beta tester?  
          Only registered users qualify.


                             Running FRB through Windows 3.1
                             -------------------------------
          
            FundRaiser Basic was not written specifically for the Windows
          environment.  However, like most DOS programs, it can be run as
          a "non-Windows application" from within Windows. We do not
          recommend this unless you work primarily in Windows, and find
          yourself frequently going back and forth between the two.
          
            If you must run FRB through Windows, here are our
          recommendations: you must have at least 4Mb of RAM, and run
          Windows (version 3.1) in 386-enhanced mode; you must also
          increase the number of file handles in your CONFIG.SYS
          file....the number will depend on what other programs you run
          through Windows; try increasing it to 47.  If you get a file
          error, increase it in increments of 2 until the problem goes
          away; then increase it by 2 more, for good measure.
          
            To install FRB in Windows, go to the Program Manager; open the
          Group you want to place FRB in.  Click on Program Manager's
          "File", then "New"; select "Program Item", then click on "OK".
          
            You should now find yourself in the "Program Item Properties"
          window. In the "Description" box, enter:  FundRaiser Basic.  In
          the Command Line box, enter: FRB.  In the "Working Directory"
          box, enter: C:\FRB (assuming that this is where you installed
          FundRaiser).
          
            Now click on "Change Icon".  You will be alerted that you must
          choose one from the Program Manager; click on "OK".  Scroll to
          the right to find an icon that appeals to you (most people seem
          to choose either the safe or the mailbox).  Click on the icon
          that you choose; then click on "OK". Back in the Program Item
          Properties window, click on "OK".  After a moment, you will see
          your icon installed in your selected Group.
          
            Finally, edit the PIF file: Open the "Main" Group and
          double-click on the "PIF Editor" to open it.  (The title bar
          should be (Untitled).  If not, click on File, then New.)  In the
          "Program Filename" box, enter:  FRB.EXE.  In the "Window Title"
          box, enter: FundRaiser Basic.  In the "Start-up Directory" box,
          enter:  C:\FRB (or whatever matches the Working Directory
          above).  
          
          The next six choices should be marked as follows:  
            Video Memory        must be    Text 
            Memory Requirements must be    520 Required, 640 Desired.  
            EMS Memory          should be  0 Required, 1024 Limit.  
            Display Usage       can be either choice, but most people
                                  prefer Windowed. 
            Execution           the choice is yours, but be sure that 
                                  Close Window on Exit is checked ON.  

            When you're finished, click on "File", then "Save".  Under
          "File Name", enter: FRB, and click on "OK".  Close the Editor
          window.  You're now ready to start FundRaiser Basic.
