Pre-Installation Notes:

Installing this software will add a directory
to the PATH statement in your AUTOEXEC.BAT
file.  On some Windows 98 machines which
do not have a pre-existing PATH, this causes
the default PATH to become ineffective.  To
remedy this issue, before installing this
software use Notepad to modify the
AUTOEXEC.BAT to include the line:

   SET PATH=C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND

Contact RSoft with any questions
(914-734-2665 or info@rsoftinc.com).
