MESSAGE RE:     INSTALLING FILEBOX FOR WINWORD 6

	To install FILEBOX.DOT

	1.      Copy FBOX6.DOT into your WINWORD\STARTUP directory
	2.      Copy FILEBOX.HLP into your WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory
	3.      If the macro does not run when you start Windows, use the 
		FilesTemplate command to use FILEBOX.DOT as a global template.
		See page 222 of the WinWord manual.

	After you've done this the FileOpen menu selection or the ^O will
	bring up FileBox. You might want to assign it to a toolbar button!

	Be sure to read the FILEBOX.DOC for other information and license.

MESSAGE RE:     New Features in FILEBOX.DOT for WW6

	* FILE PREVIEW - let's you look @ files without opening them.

	* FILE PRINT - Print files without opening them.

	* MULTIPLE OPEN - Open numerous files in one session.

	* FASTER LOADING - Folders with many files open about 3x faster now.

	* SIMPLER INTERFACE - Program uses only one dialog now, with 6 panels.

	* LARGER LABELS - The dialog box, list boxes and text boxes have been 
	  enlarged to maximum size on 640x480.

	* SETTINGS SAVED - FileBox remembers" certain settings -- e.g. which 
	  panel was shown and whether or not Multiple Open was slected -- and 
	  returns to those settings when it starts again.

Bug Fixes FileBox 6

	* No more crashes when you try to Add an unsaved file to a folder.

	* Error trapping when FILEBOX.INI gets corrupted w/ suggestions 
	  re: what to fix.

	* Missing files and folders no longer cause crashes.

	* "Move" and "Copy" no longer crash in German WinWord.

Installation Recommendation

	I've been working with the program for several months now and 
	everything *seems* pretty solid. The Beta testers have pretty well 
	ferreted out all the bugs. But you know how these things go! 
	Before using the new .DOT I recommend the following precautions:

	1.      Make a backup copy of your FILEBOX.INI
	2.      Rename your current FILEBOX.DOT to FILEBOX.OLD

MESSAGE RE:     New Features in FileBox for WinWord 6 over WinWord2
		Updating FILEBOX.INI to use FileBox for WW6

Greetings!

	Despite a lot of the carping and complaining you read in the CIS 
Forums about WW6; many of which are legitimate (e.g. the slow performance, 
problems with IsDirty() and the need to use SHARE(), WW6 is still an exciting 
product that pushes the envelope in many areas. Features like AutoCorrect,
variable width columns and WordBasic's new FilePreview and PicturePreview 
controls move WW6 beyond word processing into the realm of desktop publishers 
with significant power!

	WinWord 6 continues the migration path toward true *document* 
processing. OLE2 has the potential to render moot the distinction between, 
for example, a word processing file and a spread-sheet file and a graphics 
file. Although VBA hasn't yet arrived for WinWord 6, WordBasic has grown
dramatically in size, power and flexibility. In particular, the addition of 
400+ statments, a few important controls and the significant improvement of 
dialog controls open up incredible worlds of possibility.

	After weighing the possibilities against the trouble, I decided that 
for my own personal use [I am a full time pastor, a doctoral student and my 
wife is working on her MSW] the new power of WordBasic justified the trouble 
involved in moving FileBox into WW6. 

	New Features in FileBox for WinWord 6.......

	* MOVE          You can now move files between folders by 
			"point-and-shoot" Without a lot of annoying redraws 
			of the screen. Ah, the joys of dynamic dialog boxes!

	* COPY          ditto

	* PURGE         You can step through your entire document collection, 
			one folder and one file at a time, purging those 
			entries that no longer point to extant disk files. 
			It includes the ability to verify each potential purge or do it all
			in an automated batch file.

	* SPEED         The enhanced array processing capabilities and the 
			language extensions have eliminated a number of API 
			calls. Significant improvements in speed in 
			certain areas.

			****************************
			IMPORTANT MODIFICATION
			****************************

	    IN ORDER TO USE VERSION 6, USERS OF FILEBOX VERSION 2 MUST MAKE 
	    ONE CHANGE IN THE FILEBOX.INI FILE!

After reviewing the code, one area I found in need of improvement were the 
[Section] names in the FILEBOX.INI. Because of some data conversions and some 
changes in the way that initialization files are handled in WinWord, I decided 
to make one change which will require a manual modificiation.

Currently you will find that your FILEBOX.INI looks something like this 
example:

[Config]
.
.
.

[Folders]
Folder 1=Correspondence
Folder 2=Work in Progress
Folder 3=Storage

[Folder 1]
Files=2
1=....
2=....

[Folder 2]
Files=3
1=...
2=...
3=...

[Folder 3]
Files=9
.
.

The [Folder x] section names need to be changed! The *variable setting* taken 
from the [Folders] section needs to be used to replace the [Section] names 
for each folder. By way of example, the aforementioned sample file needs to 
be changed to look like this:

[Config]
.
.
.

[Folders]
Folder 1=Correspondence
Folder 2=Work in Progress
Folder 3=Storage

[Correspondence]
Files=2
1=....
2=....

[Work in Progress]
Files=3
1=...
2=...
3=...

[Storage]
Files=9
.
.

	When this one change has been made, the FILEBOX.INI is ready for 
	version 6!
