Short: Plan5 v5.1 - project planning tool Author: andyc@compuserve.com (Andy Clarkson) URL: http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/andyc Uploader: psion-adm@nic.funet.fi Type: s5/apps/time PLAN5 version 5.1 for the Psion Series 5 and Geofox-One Copyright 1997, Andy Clarkson, All Rights Reserved Description: Plan5 is a project planning tool for the Psion Series 5 and Geofox-One. (A separate version is also available for the 3a/3c/Siena). Given a set of tasks, and resources working on those tasks, Plan will calculate the schedule for each task and the project as a whole, taking into consideration dependencies between tasks, resource work hours and holidays etc. Contents of this package: Readme.txt - this file Manual - Manual in Psion 5 Word format Plan.app - plan application Plan.aif - plan icon file Plan.icn - plan toolbar icon file Gprinter.opx - printer support file Plan.hlp - plan on-line help file (optional) Plan.ttl - plan title screen (optional) Mpx.opo - plan Microsoft Project transfer module (optional) Example - example plan file (optional) Quick installation: 1) If you have a copy of an earlier version of Plan5, back it up and remove it from the Psion. 2) Create the folder C:\System\Apps\Plan on the Psion 5, (You may need to make the System folder visible in the Tools->Preferences menu to do this on the S5). 3) Copy Plan.app, Plan.aif and Plan.icn into the folder. 4) Create the folder C:\System\Opx on the Psion 5. 5) Copy Gprinter.opx into the folder. 6) Optionally copy Plan.hlp, Plan.ttl and Mpx.opo into the same C:\System\Apps\Plan folder. Take care that the Plan.hlp file is not converted when copied (see note below). 7) Copy the manual (Manual) to the C:\Documents folder. 8) Optionally copy the file Example to the C:\Documents folder. 9) Refer to the manual for further details. Note: If you are using PsiWin2 to copy the files to the Psion then ensure that the help and manual files are copied without conversion. Unless you are careful PsiWin2 can convert them to PC formated files when they are copied. There is an option in the PsiWin2 properties which when set will ensure that PsiWin prompts you if any conversion is required. I recommend that you turn this option on. Upgrading from Plan for the Series 3a/3c/Siena: You cannot copy Plan files from the 3a/3c/Siena version of Plan onto the Series5 and use them with Plan5. What you need to do is to make use of the MPX module to export the data to an MPX file on the 3a and then import that file into a newly create plan in Plan5.
