- This is now a very complex program, so I would strongly encourage you to
- read the instructions and work through the tutorial. At an ABSOLUTE minimum
- read Part 1 of the instructions.
-
- However, if you still insist on flying blind:
-
- 1. Put BANKS3A.APP in your \APP\ directory
-
- 2. Put the three essential .OVL files into a \APP\BANK\ subdirectory
- (BANKS3A1.OVL, BANKS3A2.OVL and BANKS3A3.OVL)
-
- 3. If you want to use the optional modules, put the following files
- into the \APP\BANK\ subdirectory:
-
- Budget Categories : BANKSBUD.OVL
- Expense Account Tracking : BANKSEXP.OVL
- Home Inventory : BANKSHOU.OVL
- Fuel Consumption Monitor : BANKSPET.OVL
- Financial Planner : BANKSPLN.OVL
- Investment Tracker : BANKSSHA.OVL
- Utilities Monitor : BANKSUTI.OVL

-
- 4. If you want to use the new, optional, Printing routines then
- also put the BANKSPRT.OVL file into the \APP\BANK\ subdirectory
- but also put the S3APRINT.DYL file into an \OPD\ directory.
- (Note that this latter file is common to all my programs so
- if you are running more than one, you only need a single copy
- of this file)
-
- 5. Install (PSION-I) and go for it !! (If you need to change the currency to
- match your country I'm afraid you will have to read the instructions :-)
- Look in Part 3 for instructions on setting it up.)
-
- If you do get a problem, PLEASE read the full instructions. I have yet to
- be asked a question that wasn't already fully explained in the instructions
- or the FAQ file !!
-
- All comments, and registrations, still gratefully received.
