However, the HTMLVIEW component (used for HTML Preview) is a SHAREWARE. FORM

You can avoid that message by switch off Image Display in [OPTION].

VII.Before you run
==================

1.        If Dida's Window is too small for you, it can be resized.
2.        If you don't like Dida's default font, please change it in "Option".
3.        In the worst case...if you can't even run Dida, I am sorry.
          Please tell me your problem.  I have spent 8Hours to test and fix
          Dida on a Windows95 machine and a Windows 3.11 machines. Maybe that
          is still not enough.
