Introduction:
==============================================================================
This shareware version contains all the features of a registered version.
This version has a 30 days evaluation restriction.

1. PageFocus contains two programs:
        PFOCUS.EXE      This is the main PageFocus program.  Use this for
                        creating and designing drawings, forms, documents,
                        catalogs, etc.

        EX.EXE          This is the run-time program.  Use this to create
                        database and form applications.
                        Or use it as a viewer for browsing PageFocus files.

2. This package does not include printed manuals.  The help files and
   a brief user guide, USEGUIDE.PF, which is a PageFocus File, provide
   all the information you need to run the programs.  We suggest that you
   open USEGUIDE.PF with EX.EXE and read it.
   Another file, TIPS.PF, is useful for seeking frequently asked questions.

3. Minimum system requirements:
   486 PC, VGA, Mouse. (Pentium class and and Super VGA or up preferred)
   Windows 3.1, Windows 95.

   The package require approximately 5M bytes of disk space.

4. The button bars described in PageFocus help file are based on a super-VGA
   screen mode.  If your monitor is running on VGA mode, the button bar will be
   slightly different from those described in the help files.
   However, this should not affect the use of PageFocus because all the
   button commands are available from command menus.


Use Rules
==========================================================================
A. Copyright
   PageFocus is a copyrighted software.  This version is a shareware,
   not a freeware.

B. Evaluation period
   The evaluation period is 30 days following your installation.
   If you do not register after the evaluation period, you must
   remove all the files related to PageFocus from your computer.
   Any use of the package after the 30-day period without registering
   with the Creative Stars is a violation of this use agreement.
   PageFocus will eventually quit working if a violation of the
   use agreement occurs.

   If you had used a previous version of PageFocus shareware and
   it expired without registration, please remove it entirely
   (including all the files created with it) before trying out
   the new version.  If you want to be able to use the old files created by
   an old shareware version, you will need a registered version.

   If you have a registered version, then you can safely try out this new
   shareware version.  However, we suggest that you install this version in a
   new directory.

   This new version will read all the files of the previous versions.  But
   the previous versions will not be able to read some of the files created
   with this new version.

C. Important!!!
   PageFocus uses your system time to check the integrity and cross-referencing
   of forms and databases.  We suggest that you maintain
   a consistent date and time for your system.  Time accuracy is not
   critical, but a correct system date is essential.
