Depending on your setup. BRUN45 .EXE 77440 3/23/90 If you do not have a DOS directory these two files will be copied to your root directory. Note ! This shareware version of fastmenu PLUS is not crippled in any way. It contains all the options and modules that the registered version has. The only difference in the registered version is that it lacks the opening shareware screen. If you use the shareware version for a period and find that you want to register it, not to worry. All the page application data, phone book data, money book data, and all other files created with the shareware version will work with the registered version and will not be dammaged during installation of the registered version. The only thing that you will lose during installation is the old module level password file. Thank you; Jack W Hildenbrand
