 FiveWin Registration Process
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 If you purchased FiveWin directly from a an authorized distributor, you
 probably don't need to read this section. The following information refers
 to procedures that are required only when you are attempting to activate an
 Evaluation Edition of FiveWin after it has been fully paid for. If you have
 installed the software from official disk sets shipped to you by one of
 our authorized distributors, these procedures don't apply to you.

 If when running a program created with FiveWin, you see a dialog box
 similar to the one below, then you must follow these procedures.

 The Evaluation Edition of FiveWin is fully operative, except for the
 registration dialog box which keeps popping up. In order to complete
 the registration process and unlock your evaluation edition of FiveWin
 follow these steps:

 * The following Dialog Box will appear in your applications prior to
 becoming a registered user:

     |      Register N.: ____________________   User Id: UNIQUEID        |
     |                                                                   |
     |      +------------+     +---------------+      +------------+     |
     |      |  Register  |     |  Information  |      |  Continue  |     |
     |      +------------+     +---------------+      +------------+     |
     +-------------------------------------------------------------------+

 * Call your nearest Distributor and provide him your UNIQUEID User Id
   identification number and your full name. Your Distributor, after
   confirming your payment, will provide you with your FiveWin
   Registration N..

 * Type in:

                          User Name: Your full name
                   FiveWin LIB Path: FIVEWIN_PATH\FIVEWIN.LIB
                        Register N.: Your Registration number


   You Must specify the full path to FiveWin.lib and the name FIVEWIN.LIB
   as we are going to low level manipulate the LIB file.


   Then press the Register Button:

   If everything is OK the following message will appear,

                         File correctly registered

   If there was a problem, this message will appear:

                        Wrong password or file error

   This indicates that either our low level function could not find or read
   the FiveWin.lib file, or you entered the registration number incorrectly, or
   that there is information missing from the register dialog.  Try entering
   the information again.

 * Now, rebuild the EXE you were testing, and you will notice that
   the Register Dialog Box does not appears any more.

   Don't lose your Register Number. You will need it for future upgrades
   -we will upload new versions of FiveWin everywhere: BBSs, CdRoms,
   Magazines, Clipper User Groups,...- or just contact your Distributor
   to get them.

   When you get a new minor upgrade of FiveWin, you will repeat this process,
   but you wont have to call for a new registration number. Use the one you
   were previously supplied.

   When there is a major new release (paid upgrade) if you provide us your
   existing Registration number you will only pay for the upgrade.


 * Once you have registered, your Distributor will ship you a disk
   with FiveWin source code, latest documentation and examples. He will also
   provide you technical support. Please feel free to ask questions, share
   ideas, and source code, etc. to help us better enhance FiveWin.

 * When you are ready to give your customer an EXE built with FiveWin, or
   if you wish to test the EXE on another computer, the EXE file you have
   produced must be 'freed'.  Again, this only applies to registered Evaluation
   Edition copies of the product.

   This means you have to call a function inside FiveWin.LIB called:

                               RegisterEXE()

   Call this function from ANOTHER FiveWin EXE file FROM YOUR COMPUTER
   and a Dialog Box will appear requesting the path and name of the EXE to be
   'freed'.  this dialog is very similar to the one you saw while registering
   your product.  (Note:  There is a file called Register.prg in the Examples
   directory which you can use for this purpose.)

   Type the full path & name of your EXE and your Registration Number in the
   appropriate spots.  Then press 'Register' and your EXE will be ready to be
   used from other computers.

   Remember, you have to free your EXE by calling RegisterEXE() from ANOTHER
   EXE you have already built with a REGISTERED LIB and have running on
   YOUR computer.

   In case you forget to 'free' the EXE, when running on a different computer,
   a message will appear saying it has not been properly installed and
   execution will stop.

   It is a very easy system. We thank you for your cooperation.
