              CM2 -- Contact Manager Rel. 2 Readme File
              ==========================================

===================================================================
                              IMPORTANT
                  If you are upgrading from V1.0

You can install this release of CM into the same directory where
CM10 is installed. However, to be on the safe side, please make
a backup copy of the \db directory which is located under your CM10
application directory. If the installation overwrites your database
(which it shouldn't, but this is a precaution), please copy the 
backup files back to the \db directory and your database will be 
restored. If this happens, please also send me e-mail describing
what you did and what happened.

===================================================================

Overview
========
Contact Manager is a program which manages a database
of personal information about people. The program's database
is predefined. It includes details about business and home
addresses and phone numbers, personal and company Internet
(e-mail and home pages) information, and additional personal
details including details about family and two unlimited
'Note' fields which are scrollable and can contain a
virtually unlimited amount of information.
Each record is built as a tabbed card, with easy access to
any item of information. The program enables searches
through the database according to 10 different field
criteria, printing full records or name list reports, and
editing/updating of records 'in place', adding, deleting,
navigating or jumping to desired records, dialing phone numbers
from the aplication, connecting to e-mail and Web browser
applications, and more.

This is a major upgrade of V1.0, and includes many new features,
including some customization, a full range of security features,
improved help, dialing, e-mail and Web browsing accessed directly
from the application (if available on your Windows 95 installation),
and more. Please see the help file for more details.

Installation
============
To install CM2, unzip the distributed file (1558KB .zip file)
and run the 'setup' utility. Choose the desired directory
for installation. The program automatically installs a .\db
directory (if it does not exist) under the target directory
for storing the database. It also installs some DLL files for
a minimum installation of Borland's BDE, some of them under
the path 'Program Files\Borland\Common Files\BDE' in your
windows 95 drive. No other changes are made to your system
or the registry in this version.

An 'Uninstall' utility is also automatically installed. Use
the Add/Remove Programs control panel to get rid of all
program components automatically (users of CM10: this time it works
correctly).


NOTE: If you have the BDE already installed on your computer
      you can delete all of the DLL files from the target
      CM10 directory after installation, to reclaim some space.

Help
====
The program includes a Help file which provides basic
information on how to operate the program. I hope you will
not need it much, because the application seems pretty
simple to operate (at least to me). Help buttons also exist
in some of the main dialog boxes, for context help.

Registration

period of 60 (sixty) days. If, after that time, you decide
