- Tom,
-
- The way I installed it [not necessarily THE way...] was to:
-
- open a full screen OS/2 Window
- go to the target drive [b: in my case]
- run the install program from the floppy using the command line
-
- The install was incident free. The financial calculator doesn't
- work however, but I think that's mentioned in one of the OS/2 readme
- files. Also the reminders program didn't work when I tried to run
- it. Locked the system if I recall correctly. Haven't bothered to
- try and get it up and running since...my creditors seem to enjoy
- reminding me!
-
- The only bug I've found so far is the fact the program came up with
- a negative number the first time I entered my data!!! :-)
