Running SunData in Windows
At this stage you may wish to install the SunData program so that it runs from within
Windows.
In Windows 3.11
The SunData diskette also contains SUNDATA.PIF and SUNDATA.ICO files for use
with Windows.
♦ In Windows Program Manager, select File, New, Program Item
♦ Specify SunScan for the Description,
SUNDATA.PIF for the Command Line, your
program directory name for the Working Directory, and
SUNDATA.ICO for the
Icon File.
Program Manager will then display the SunScan Icon.
Later on you can refine this arrangement, and call the program from a data
directory, but for the present it will get you started.
♦ To run SunData: double click on the SunScan icon to run SunScan full screen.
♦ To exit: press
Alt+F, X, or Alt+Q, Q
In Windows 95
SunData will run from a Windows 95 DOS command prompt, or from an MS-DOS
mode DOS session launched from Windows 95. Do not try to run it under a
Windows 95 non MS-DOS mode DOS session. Then follow the general principles
given above for Windows 3.11.
