<P align=left><FONT size=3>Detailed instructions:<BR><BR>1. CLICK on the link above that says Download WS. (If you are the more adventerous sort you can try the BETA or even the ALPHA versions.) If you get the File Download dialog box, then choose Save to Disk and skip to step 3.</FONT></P>

<P align=left><FONT size=3>2. You are here because you have gotten a listing of the text of the archive program instead of the File Download dialog box. You need to close the listing window, then RIGHT-CLICK on the link above that says Download WS BETA, and then choose Save Target As from the sub-menu that displays.</FONT></P>

<P align=left><FONT size=3>3. From the Save As dialog box navigate to where you want to save this file.  Note that this download is NOT a windows executable file.  It is strictly a text-only file that is Pick BASIC Source code. So it might be wisest if you put it into a folder that is, or is close to, a Pick BASIC code area.  You may name this program whatever you wish.  Click the OK button in the dialog box to begin the transfer.</FONT></P>

<P align=left><FONT size=3>4. After download is complete, you need to use whatever tools you have at your disposal to move this program into a Pick BASIC programming file, if it is not already in one.  Those of you on Universe for Windows will have an easier time because your BASIC files are Windows folders already.  The rest of you will need to use some sort of FTP or other transfer program to get the file from Windows into PICK.</FONT></P>

<P align=left><FONT size=3>5. Once you have the program in a Pick BASIC programming file, you need to compile it and run it.  The program creates several files, so it's safest for you if you run it in an account that is not in active use, until you can test it out and make sure everything is fine.</FONT></P>

<P align=left><FONT size=3>6. The program will check to see if another copy of itself is in existence and uninstall it. It will then ask you what kind of machine you are on, and it may ask you to retype the TCL Run command you used to invoke it. It does this step only so it can know the name of the item in which you saved it. It uses a self-extracting installer, so its need to know the correct name in order to read the archive out of it. The program will then proceed to install itself. The only further input it will ask for regards controls. Controls are things that handle what is mostly memo information. You may see questions like "What is your Company's Name". You may leave these blank if you don't wish to take the time to fill them out. However when it asks you if you want to create a control always say Y, an answer of N could cause the install to fail.</FONT></P>
