-

-
- *** LICENSE FILE
-
- To distribute your Visual Basic or Visual C++ application with a
- SoftCraft Graphic Custom Control, you need to also distribute
- the runtime file for the control, SCGRPHIC.VBX. You may
- distribute the SCGRPHIC.VBX file without charge as long as it is
- not modified in any way.
-
- To use the SoftCraft Graphic Custom Control in design mode, you
- must have the license file, SCLIC.DLL, located in the same
- directory as the SCGRAPHIC.VBX file. If you get a message about
- a missing license file, you must place the license file in the
- proper directory and then exit Windows and restart.
-
- Note: You are not allowed to include SCLIC.DLL with any
- application that you develop and distribute; only SCGRPHIC.VBX
- may be distributed.
-
-
- *** RUNNING THE DEMO
-
- After SCGRPHIC.VBX has been placed in \WINDOWS\SYSTEM, you can
- run the demo by executing the DEMO.EXE file with the Program
- Manager's File Run command.
-
- *** DOCUMENTATION
-
- All documentation for the SoftCraft Graphic Custom Control is in
- the online help file. You can view this file even if you do not
- have the design-time license file by loading it into the Windows
- Help program. To do so, press F1 while in the Program Manager
- to start up Help. Then use the File Open command in Help to
- load SCGRPHIC.HLP.
-
- *** SAMPLE SOURCE FILES
-
- You cannot load the demo project unless you have the license
- file, but the project source files are distributed in text
- format so you can view them with a text editor. In addition,
- all of the source text is included in the SCGRPHIC.HLP online
- help file.
