System Requirements
Any PC running Windows 95/98/ME, Windows NT 4.0 or Windows
2000 or later.
At least 8 MB RAM and 3 MB of free Hard Disk space. (More memory
and diskspace is recommended).
A connection to the Internet.
Installing
- Create a directory to hold the program (recommended directory
name is SSChart but can be any name you wish).
- Download the program zip file into this directory.
- Unzip the file (download pkzip for this if you don't already
have it).
- Read the file "readme.rtf" or "readme.txt"
for further information.
- Run "sschart.exe" from this directory, the program
will complete the installation process the first time it is run.
(This includes creating subdirectories: {DATA, CONFIG, FAVORITE,
IMPORT, SLF, and HELP}, moving the appropriate files to these
locations, and recording the installation location.
A separate file "readme.rtf" or "readme.txt"
contains the detailed installation instructions for the software
as well as any last minutes changes. Please read this file carefully
before installing and running the software. (Both of these files
are identical except for the format, the rtf file contains more
formatting, and can be viewed with Wordpad, or Word).
The first time you run SSChart:
You will see the message at the right. This is
normal, the message informs you that the install directory has
been set to the directory you started sschart.exe from. Click
OK to continue. |
 |
Next you will see the Install License dialog informing you
that you are running an unregistered trial copy of SSChart. If
you click [Cancel] here, the program will continue and
still be fully functional for three days. You can return to this
dialog later by selecting { Help | Install License } from the
menu. If you register the program, you will be sent a trial key
that will enable the program for 3 weeks. You can request your
trial key here, by filling in your User Name (or company
name), and Email Address and then hitting [Request
Trial Key]. This will contact our server online, and it will
respond by sending a trial key to the email address you supplied.
(We will not send any other email, and will never disclose your
email address to any other parties).
Once you receive your license key back by email enter the
trial key which was sent to you in the Program Key
field above and press [Validate Key] . If the trial key
can be validated you will get a message to that effect and you
will be able to use the program until the expiration date.
When you exit the above dialog by hitting either
[Request Trial Key] or [Cancel], you can expect
to see one last reminder that the program expires soon. Just
hit OK here. |

Uninstalling
If you followed the installation instructions, SSChart is
self uninstalling. Select { Help | Uninstall SSChart Software }
to complete the uninstall.
This procedure will attempt to delete all files and directories
that were created by the install process and remove registry
entries. This will leave only the original zip file, the SSChart
executable file and any user created files in the installation
directory . Any data files in the DATA subdirectory created by
your running the program, and any favorites files in the FAVORITE
subdirectory which you created will remain. You can manually
delete these and the zip file if you wish to completely remove
the program from your system.
