SECTION 1 - WELCOME

Thank you for using Reminders! Reminders will check upcoming reminders for up to the next 7 days. Reminders can be once, weekly, monthly or yearly. You can have it run automatically when you start your computer and have it start up minimized. You can even have the number of years elapsed shown, which is great for anniversaries or birthdays.

SECTION 2 - INSTALLATION

Step 1:	   Reminders is a true 32-bit program. It installs and uninstalls through Windows 95 and higher. To install, run SETUP.EXE. If you get a message for Setup to update older system files, then go to step 2. If you do not get this message, then go to step 3.

Step 2:    If your computer contains older system files, Setup will update these files. You will then be prompted to re-boot your computer. Do this and then run setup.exe again.

Step 3:    Now that we know that you have the up-to-date files on your computer, you can now select the directory that you want to install Reminders into, as well as the group that will contain the shortcuts to start up the program. You will then be asked if you would like a shortcut put in the Startup folder. Select YES to have Reminders load every time that you start your computer. If you plan on using this program occasionally, you may want to select NO. After installation is complete, you may go to the group that you chose for Reminders and then click on the Reminders icon to start it up. If at any time you wish to uninstall the program, go to step 4.

Step 4:    For uninstalling Reminders only. 
Click on Start, Settings, Control Panel, Add/Rev Programs, then select Reminders. Click on the Add/Remove button. Reminders will then uninstall itself.
