WinPlace For Windows 95/NT
Version 7.3
11 Mar 1998

WinPlace is a freeware application which
allows you to create and place objects
into an area and view the results as
3D (VRML 2.0).  The objects can be almost
anything (office furniture, electronic
components, city buildings, etc.), and
can be manually created or selected from
user-created libraries.  For the special
case of electronic assemblies created
with WinPlace, conduction thermal analysis
capabilities are now provided.

Additional information (screen shots,
sample outputs, latest changes, etc.)
can be found at the WinPlace home page:

suggestions please send email to

Installation Information
------------------------
WinPlace installation files are now provided as a self-extracting .EXE file.
For compatibility with software archives which still list WinPlace as a .ZIP
file, the .EXE file is also available wrapped into a .ZIP file.  This
README.TXT file is included (uncompressed) in the .ZIP file.

The following OCX/DLL files are contained in the WinPlace self-extracting
installation file. The columns show the file versions used to check the
target PC, based on the operating system in use by the target PC.

These files are installed only if the target PC has older files or older
versions.  A copy of all replaced files is placed in a backup directory.

The content of the installation file can be listed, and individual
files selected for extraction (not installation) by entering "winplace /X".
