PlanView 1.0 (readme.txt - 11/30/92)
    =======================================================================
                        GENERAL INFORMATION
    =======================================================================
    PlanView is a shareware program.  If you find this program useful
    and find that you are using it after a reasonable trial period, you
    must make a registration payment to Sapphire Software Inc.  The
    registration fee will license one copy for use on any one computer
    at any one time.  To register, use the program's "Registration" option
    in the "Help" menu or use the "register.txt" file.

    You are encouraged to pass a copy of PlanView (in its original form)
    along to your friends for evaluation.  Please encourage them to
    register their copy if they find that they can use it.

    PlanView is designed for overall planning needs in a dynamic
    environment where plans often change and you need to be able to
    get fast "ballpark" numbers for a plan.  PlanView 1.0 will handle
    up to a few hundred events in a given plan, but it is not suited
    for highly complex projects where thousands of tasks are defined
    within a project plan.

    Thank you for trying PlanView.  If you have further questions please
    contact me:

    ======================================================================

            a.  Microsoft Windows 3.0 or later.
            b.  A mouse (or equivalent) is required.

    2.  Installation from diskette:
            a.  Create a directory to place the PlanView files.  You
                may use the Windows File Manager or DOS.  For example
                in DOS type:
                    md c:\planvw
            b.  Copy all the PlanView files from the diskette to the
                new directory.  You may use the Window File Manager or
                DOS.  For example in DOS type:
                    copy  a:\*.*  c:\planvw

    3.  How to run the program:
        The program executable is named "PLANVW.EXE".  You may execute
        PlanView directly with the Windows File manager.
        
        If you want to place PlanView into a program group, use the
        Windows Program Manager to create an icon in the desired group.
        Use the directory that PlanView is located in as the path for
        the default directory.

    4.  Upon starting the program for the first time, review the on-line
        help information that is available for the program's "Help" menu.
        You may print any of the help sections.

    5.  Look at the sample plans, resource definitions, and calendar
        definitions that are provided.

    6.  By default, all data resides in the same directory as the program
        executable.  You may place your data in another location by doing
        the following:
            a.  Create the directory you want to store the data in.
            b.  Use the "Directories" option of the "Options" menu to tell
                the program to use this directory for all data.
