           To  install  the  VINO:FILE  Cellar  Master  program
           (Shareware Version) from a BBS archive:
                *    make a directory for VINO:FILE on your  hard  disk
                     drive;
                *    place  the  archived  VINO:FILE   file   in   that
                     directory;
                *    unarchive  the  file  using  UNPAK  (.ARC),  UNZIP
                     (.ZIP)  or  LHARC  (.LZH)  etc  depending  on  the
                     archive version used on the BBS;
                *    delete the archive.


        STARTING VINO:FILE WITH THE SAMPLE DATABASE

           VINO:FILE comes with a sample wine database and  cross  reference
           file so that you can get a feel for the program as  soon  as  you
           have installed it on your hard drive.

           To start  VINO:FILE  and  load  up  the  samples  change  to  the
           directory on your hard disk where  you  installed  VINO:FILE  and
           type:

        PRINTING THE VINO:FILE MANUAL

           To print the documentation on almost any printer type
                     COPY VINOFILE.TXT LPT1:

           You will find that the formatting and pagination of the on-disk
           manual occasionally looks a little odd. This is because the
           formatting is optimized for the printed manual which you will
           receive if you register. I apologize for this, but if you register
           I think you will agree that it was worth it.


        LHARC DECOMPRESSION PROGRAM

           When distributed on diskette, VINO:FILE files are compressed
           using the shareware program LHARC - a copy of which is included
           on the diskette. You will also find the documentation for LHarc
           in the file LHARC.MAN.
