Registering the Shareware-Version

Registrierung der Shareware-Version

Das Programm Make_MAK ist in englisch verfaßt (ab Version 4 wird die VB Professional Edition in deutsch in verfaßt. Bitte äußern Sie Ihre Meinung über eine - dazu passende - deutsche Version von Make_Mak.)
Die Registrierinformationen liegen auch in deutscher Sprache in dieser Datei vor.
Falls Ihnen diese Hilfedatei nicht ausreicht, wenden Sie sich bitte direkt an den Autor !


Make_MAK - Installation
Make_MAK - Installation	Contents

This application does not need a particular installation.

Simply move MAKE_MAK.EXE and MAKE_MAK.HLP to a directory of your choice.

Additional Files

Besides a copy of VBRUN300.DLL and CMDIALOG.VBX there are no additional files required. (no further VBXs or DLLs).
If you already have acquired VisualBasic-programs, there are probably a VBRUN300.DLL and a CMDIALOG.VBX in the \WINDOWS\SYSTEM-directory. If not, please put one into the \WINDOWS\SYSTEM-directory so that all VisualBasic(3.0)-programs can use them.

In case you have installed one of the files CTL3D.DLL or CTL3DV2.DLL, additional 3D-functions will be supported.

Make_MAK is not a stand-alone-compiler !  A VB.EXE (any version !) is required !!!


Make_MAK - How to Use
Make_MAK - How to Use	Contents

The 3 Steps to compile a VB project with Make_MAK:

1.	Set a VB.EXE you want to use for compilation.
Make_MAK offers now 5 different storages for your compiling EXE. To select one out of those five storages, click on the VB.EXE input line with the right mouse button (or press F8).
-- Press the 'Get VB.EXE...' button or
-- press F3 or
-- drag the file from a file manager and drop it right onto the VB-input line.
Make_MAK will only accept a VB.EXE, but using the VB*.EXE-pattern you may of course rename a VB.EXE to VB2.EXE or else.
Make_MAK will not check whether you selected the correct version for your project code.

2.	Set one or more projects for compilation.
You may compile several projects in a row.
-- Press the 'Get MAK-file...' button or
-- press F4 (use the multi select in the file dialog !) or
-- drag one or more file(s) from a file manager. Drop it/them somewhere on Make_MAK.
Make_MAK will not accept invalid formats but will not see errors in advance - so make sure your projects are error-free (the compilation may be incomplete if a project causes errors).
Tip: You may drop files with extensions different from .mak. Make_MAK will search the directory for a file with the same name and the extension .mak. So drag'n'drog will be even faster than before ! (Drag just what you're getting...)
Note:  Make_MAK allowes added dropping now - hold down a Shift-key when dropping.

3.	Compile your project(s).
Depending on how many projects you have loaded you now press 'Compile one' (F5) or 'Compile all' (F6).
Make_MAK will launch VB now very fast, make it compile a project and either returns or launches VB again for the next compilation.
Since VB will be launched for each project separately you will probably obtain smaller EXE-files as usual (it is well-known that VB 'pumps up' executables sometimes).
In case you want to launch VB with your project without compiling it right now, hold down a Shift-key when you press 'Compile one' (Do not press 'Compile all' - it won't work anyway).

That's all !

Maybe you want Make_MAK to rest now for the next compilation of the same files...
It can not be iconized ?  Well, then click on the title bar with the right mouse button. You may as well drop MAK-files on the minimized Make_MAK !

You want to place Make_MAK in the right lower corner of your screen ?
Move it there until it's almost vanished, click the caption with the right mouse button - voilà !


Renaming a VB.EXE to e.g. VB2.EXE makes it possible to use two or more development environments of VB at the same time !  So you may e.g. run VB2 and VB3 together or two instances of VB3 (!).
It's a good idea to use a renamed VB.EXE for Make_MAK.

Für eine wesentlich schnellere und unkompliziertere Registrierung wurde die  PIN  (Persönliche Initialisierungs-Nummer) entwickelt.

Diese Nummer wird aus Systemdaten Ihres Rechners erstellt und ist daher für jedes System unterschiedlich.

Ihre  LIC  wird auch für weitere Versionen dieses Programmes gültig bleiben; SIe können jede neue Shareware-Version mit dieser Nummer in eine neue Vollversion umwandeln !

PIN and LIC
Registration:  PIN and LIC

For a faster and essentially less complicated registration the PIN (Personal Initialisation Number; shown on the registration window) was developed.

This number is computed from system data of your computer and thus it is unique for each system.
Just send the PIN to the author's below address and you will receive your registration number (LIC) which converts the shareware version into the full version. There will be no more restrictions then !
This makes registration really as easy as can be.

Your   LIC  will also be valid for further versions of this program; you are enabled to convert every shareware-version into a new full version with this number !
