--------------------------------------------
Part 1 - What is EasyNet?
--------------------------------------------

 EasyNet/OCX is a custom control which allows to develop QUICKLY
an application that needs to manage a network diagram (workflow, 
data base diagram, organigrams, communication networks, state 
transition diagrams, etc...). 

* Drawing can be made interactively or programmaticaly.  
* You may move, resize, stretch each item.
* You may associate user data to each item 
* You may navigate in the network diagram.
* Distinct pictures, colors, draw styles for each item. 
* Multi-selection, multi-line wordwrapped text, metafile support,
zooming, + many other features. 
* Many properties, events and methods allow you to "customize" your
diagramming application.
* RUNTIME ROYALTY FREE

 EasyNet/OCX programmatic interface is described in EZNET.HLP file. 


------------------------------------------
Part 2 - Version Informations
------------------------------------------

**************************************************************
IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT

For those who have used the version 1.0, you have a change to
make in each of your VB4 form (.frm file) that uses an EasyNet 
control: you will have to use a text editor like Notepad in
order to display the text of each of those .frm files and
replace the string "Eznet16Lib" by the string "EasynetLib".
**************************************************************


In 16 bits environment, use EZNET16.OCX.
In 32 bits environment, use EZNET32.OCX. 

Loading problem
***************

If you have problems to load EZNET32.OCX, it may be due 
to the fact that you have not the correct version of MFC40.DLL.
You should have the version that is provided with Microsoft 
Visual VC++ 4.x. 

Other environments
******************

This product has been tested under WIN95 and VB4 environment. 
The 32 bits version is working also under Visual C++ 4.x
Tests in other environments haven't still been made!
Note: all dimensions are given in twips. 

Version 1.1 enhancements
************************

* some bugs fixed:
  - ImageFile property didn't work in previous 32 bits version.
  - Text was not correctly displayed inside a node placed at the 
    left boundary of the control (this bug occured only with the 
    16 bits version).
  - The nag screen is not displayed in design mode.
  - Navigation methods like GetInLinksArray didn't work properly 
    when there are owned nodes.
  - LoopScope property didn't work in previous version
  - Sleeping property: after setting the Sleeping property to true,
    the handles were still left over the item in prevoius version.

* Tow new samples: 
  - navig
  - pins

Known problem
**************

32 bits version: bitmaps are not properly stored in enhanced 
metafile. 

------------------------------------------

Remarks:
--------
    
  * If you don't know EasyNet, you should run first DEMO32.EXE.

  * The Editor allows to draw diagrams and to save them in files.
    Note that the saving procedure used in this program is just an 
    example. You should adapt it to your needs or rewrite a better
    procedure. 

  * The Navig sample demonstrates how to use navigation methods.

  * The Pins sample demonstrates how to use Owner and Sleeping 
    properties to allow links to be reach any point (pins) of a node,
    not only to be directed towards its center.
