Description:

     Enigma is a 32 bit shareware registration and source code generation 
     program for visual basic developers.

     It offers three unique levels (types) of shareware registration protection, 
     from simple numeric codes up to nine characters in length, to complex alpha 
     numeric codes near 20 characters in length.  Enigma stores information that 
     you enter about each project.  When your customer information is entered, it
     is encrypted with the project information to generate individual registration
     codes that will only work for that program.  Level three is unique in that it
     thwarts a bogus registration process before the actual registration 
     information is entered.  It does this by reading an alpha numeric indicator 
     called a "kickout" which is unique to each project.  If the kickout is wrong,
     the registration is stopped.

     You can write all your programs information to a file or the system registry
     simply by clicking either one on the interface and entering a path.  

     Easily cripple and/or date limit your shareware.  

     Saves all important information about each project for future use.  It cannot 
     be accidentally altered or destroyed.  You simply click a button and the 
     information is ready to be pasted into a project.

     Pastes all the registration information to your customers email response to 
     avoid inadvertant errors in transfering information.

Additional Information:

     In order to accomodate those developers that wanted to try out the source
     code and get a feel for it's use, version 3.1 will generate source code 
     on level 1 using the project information you enter.  It will not generate 
     unique registration codes or source code using levels 2 and 3 until it's 
     registered.  

     Corrects the over length fields in Your Information and Registration 
     Information.  Fixes bug that allows date limiting to be entered into source
     without a number of days.

    *This program was written and designed on Windows 95, It may or 
     may not work an Windows NT or some other 32 bit Operating Systems.
     If you use it on an Operating System other than Windows 95 I make 
     no guarantees about performance.

    **The screen resolution for development was 800 X 600 and was chosen
      because it is the average setting by users.  The program should be
      usuable with other settings, but if you notice some fonts difficult
      to read, that is probably the reason.

Installation:

    Simply unzip the contents into a temporary directory and run the setup.

    You must be running Windows 95.

Trouble Shooting:

    For the sake of download time and distribution size, some of the files
    that may be necessary to run this software have been intentionally left
    out of this zip.  This wasn't a haphazard decision, most systems will 
    already have these files, or most of them.  Including them would double
    the download time.  So for those of you that already have them, I am 
    sure you appreciate the reduction in size, for those that don't the 
    problem is easily resolved.

    This a list of the missing files.

         VB40032.dll
         VEN2232.dll
         OLEPRO32.olb
         MSVCRT20.dll
         MSVCRT40.dll
         CTL3D32.dll

    If you encounter any errors pertaining to these files, I have them 
    zipped up at my web page.  The URL is:

    http://webwrite.com/savantguarde/vbasic/runtime.zip

    If you downloaded this from msn, you can get them in the "Shareware 
    Tools Library".  If you downloaded this from winsite or some other 
    archive, they too have these files zipped up, look for vb40032.zip or
    something of that nature.  Just unzip them all into your Windows\System
    directory.  The only exception may be the CTL3D32.dll, which may have 
    to be placed in the Enigma directory.

    Common Errors

    Below are some common errors that may occur during the installation 
    process.  The install will be aborted, a screen will display with the 
    cause of the error and all installed files will be removed.

    Error: Install cannot find the st4unst.00x file. 
    Error: Install cannot find the st4unst.exe file. 

    Solution: The above errors can be caused by either old runtime files 
    or lack of them. In either case it is recommended that you download the 
    most current files. 

    Error: Install cannot find vb40032.dll or one of the files listed above. 

    Solution: This is caused by the runtime files not being on your system. 
    Download the runtime.zip and follow the instructions in the Readme.txt
