	continuing.

	double-clicking on the File Manager icon or by choosing Run from the 
	File menu and typing "winfile.exe" in the dialog box.  

3.	Create a new directory for Word Viewer:  a) Choose File Create 
	Directory, b) Type in a name (Ex:  "c:\wordview" ), c) Click OK.  
	Move the WV.EXE file from your download directory into the directory 
	you just created; Word Viewer will install into that directory.  Run 
	the WV.EXE program by double-clicking on it in File Manager or by 
	choosing File Run and typing "wv.exe".

4.	If you are installing off a floppy disk, you can either copy the 
	WV.EXE program onto your hard disk first, or you can run directly off 
	the floppy.  Select the directory you wish to install into in File 
	Manager and choose File Run, "a:wv.exe".
