     TWO ALTERNATE INSTALLATION OPTIONS
     ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Clicking the red button in the CJ_INST.DOC file
is easy and harmless but just opening the file
causes scary warning messages on some systems.
The README.TXT file contains more info about this.

Here are a couple of optional installation methods
that you can use INSTEAD OF using the automatic
procedure offered in the CJ_INST.DOC file.

These methods aren't as painless as just clicking the
red button in the CJ_INST.DOC file, but they'll
accomplish the same thing without having to go
through seeing the horrid, scary Warning Messages
that Microsoft has built into some MAC and WIN95
systems when the CJ_INST.DOC file is merely
opened in MS Word.

Regardless of which of the following options you
choose...

1.  Copy the CJ_DEMO.DOT file to whatever directory
    you use to store your Word template (.DOT) files.
    (Usually it's the WINWORD/TEMPLATE directory.)
    
    If you're not certain...
    Look in your WINWORD6.INI file (WINDOWS directory)
    There will be an entry for your USER-DOT-PATH which reads:
    "USER-DOT-PATH=C:\WINWORD\TEMPLATE" or
    "USER-DOT-PATH=D:\MSOFFICE\TEMPLATE" or
    "USER-DOT-PATH=" + something

    This is where your .DOT files (Template files) are stored.

2.  Take a deep breath.  Release it.

3.  Create the "CJ_HTML.INI" file.
    (This is the file that the program uses to keep track
     of where things are and to record your preferences
     when you use the tools which record those preferences.)
    
    Take another deep breath.  (This is the part the CJ_INST.DOC
    red button makes painless and since you've opted not
    to click the red button, here are the alternative options.)

    The CJ_HTML.INI file is a simple text file, named
    "CJ_HTML.INI" and should be placed in your WINDOWS
    directory.

    The file can be created with any simple text editor, like
    Windows Notepad or Wordpad.  (It shouldn't be created with
    a wordprocessor like MS Word, though, because wordprocessors
    will add funny (and not so funny) codes and bungle up the
    works.  If you MUST use a wordprocessor, be sure to save
    the file in TEXT ONLY format.)

    All .INI files are basically simple text only files
    and most of them contain a lot of text.  The CJ_HTML.INI
    only requires five lines of text. (Other entries will
    be added later, but they'll be added automatically.  You
    won't have to do anything or change anything.)



----- Example of content of CJ_HTML.INI FILE -------

[Crackerjack]
Platform=Windows 3.10
LocalVersion=English (US)
TemplatePath=c:\winword\template
PathDivider=\

----- End of Example of content of CJ_HTML.INI FILE -------


After you've created a blank text file and have named it
"CJ_HTML.INI" and placed it into your WINDOWS directory...

             MANUAL CREATION OF THE CJ_HTML.INI FILE


OPTION A:

1.  Copy and paste the following into the CJ_HTML.INI file:
    (Top of the file will be fine.  It's okay to have a
    blank line first, if you want.)

-------Copy and paste text below-------

[Crackerjack]
Platform=
LocalVersion=
TemplatePath=
PathDivider=

-------Copy and paste text above-------

Then...


2.  The "Platform=" entry should be
    "Platform=Windows 3.10" or the equivalent which
    indicates which environment and version number
    you have.  I regret to report that there's no
    simple way (other than the one used in the CJ_INST.DOC
    file) to get the information if you don't already know 
    what it is. 

2.  Type the language version of Word you're using
    after the equal sign of the "Local Version=" entry.
    If you're not sure, click the Tools, Language in WORD
    and see which language version is highlighted.)

5.   The "TemplatePath=" entry can be found in your
     WINWORD6.INI file (WINDOWS directory).  Open your 
     WINWORD6.INI file and look for the entry which
     reads "USER-DOT-PATH=" (+ your path).
     It will look something like this:
     "USER-DOT-PATH=C:\WINWORD\TEMPLATE"
     (without the quotation marks).
     Copy and paste the path portion after the
     equal sign in the "TemplatePath=" entry
     of your CJ_HTML.INI file (without any
     quotation marks).

     If the very end of the path contains a ":" or a "\"
     character, delete it from the entry in the CJ_HTML.INI
     file. (DO NOT DELETE OR CHANGE ANYTHING IN YOUR WINWORD6.INI FILE.)

6.   The "PathDivider=" entry is the relatively easy.
     After the equal sign...
     If you're using a Macintosh computer, type ":" 
     If you're NOT using a Macintosh computer, type "\"
     No matter what sort of computer you're using,
     don't type the quotation marks.  Just type
     a colon or a backslash.

7.   That should do it. Now, save the CJ_HTML.INI file and close it.
     (There'll be no need to bother about the CJ_HTML.INI file again.
      Might be a good idea to save a copy of it in a different location,
      just in case it accidentally is deleted.)


To run the program, just...
Open Word
Select File, New
When the dialog box asks you which template you want to base your
document on, select the Crackerjack template (CJ_HTML.DOT).
Click OK.
Two of Crackerjack's four toolbars should immediately appear and 
you can begin creating an HTML document.
     
``````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````

OPTION B: Create Your Own Macro to Read the Paths

This option may or may not produce some of the horrid, scary messages.
However, since all that's happening is that the macro is READING
and NOT CHANGING the paths AND you can look up the commands to
verify that this is the TRUTH of the matter, it's an alternative
to consider if OPTION A, described above, seems a terrible pain.

If you have no experience writing macros, this might be helpful
for future macro writing.  

1.  Open Word
2.  If a new, blank document based on your regular "NORMAL.DOT"
    template doesn't automatically appear, select FILE, NEW
    and click OK so a blank document based on NORMAL.DOT appears.
3.  Select the Tools Menu, then Macro.
4.  In the Macro Name Box, type a name without any spaces.
    "CrackerjackApplicationInfo" will be fine.
5.  The "Create" button will become accessible as you type the
    name of the macro.  Click the Create Button.
6.  A "Macro Window" will open and the words:
    "Sub MAIN" will appear at the top, 
    there's an empty paragraph mark and then the words:
    "End Sub" appear at the bottom.
7.  Delete everything in the Macro Window and copy and paste
    the following macro code instead:

    DO NOT add paragraph marks, spaces or ANYTHING to the macro.
    Just copy and paste all the text, starting with the words
    "Sub Main" through the words "End Sub" into the Macro Window.

'------------- Copy and Paste the Text Below -----------------

Sub MAIN
On Error Goto ErrorTrap
Insert "[Crackerjack]" + Chr$(13)
Platform$ = AppInfo$(1)
PMsg$ = "Platform is: " + Platform$
MsgBox PMsg$, "Platform", 64
If InStr(Platform$, "Macintosh") Then PathDiv$ = ":" Else PathDiv$ = "\"
Insert "Platform=" + Platform$ + Chr$(13)
LocalVersion$ = AppInfo$(16)
Msg$ = "Local Version is: " + LocalVersion$
MsgBox Msg$, "Local Version", 64
Insert "LocalVersion=" + LocalVersion$ + Chr$(13)
DOTPath$ = DefaultDir$(2)
dpMsg$ = "USER-DOT-PATH is: " + DOTPATH$ + Chr$(13) + Chr$(13) + \
"Is the LAST character in the DOT PATH on the line above " + \
"one of these two characters: " + Chr$(34) + " : " + Chr$(34) + \
" or " + Chr$(34) + " \ " + Chr$(34) + \
Chr$(13) + "[Either a colon or a backslash] ?"
dp = MsgBox(dpMsg$, "Last Character in the DOT PATH", 292)
Insert "TemplatePath=" + DOTPath$
If dp = - 1 Then
	CharLeft(1, 1)
	EditCut
	Insert Chr$(13)
Else
	Insert Chr$(13)
End If
PDMsg$ = "Path Divider is: " + PathDiv$
MsgBox PDMsg$, "Path Divider", 64
Insert "PathDivider=" + PathDiv$
FinalMsg$ = "Okay, All Done"
MsgBox FinalMsg$, "The Macro is Finished", 64
ErrorTrap:
	If Err = 102 Then Goto Finish
	Err = 0
Finish:
End Sub


'------------- Copy and Paste the Text Above -----------------

8.  Click File, Save and close the Macro Window.
9.  Click Tools, Macro, then the name of the macro you just
    created, then click "RUN".
10. The paths (and answers to most of the questions which
    belong after the equal signs in the CJ_HTML.INI file) 
    will be entered into the blank document and also presented
    to you in the form of Word Message Boxes. One of
    the Message Boxes will ask you a question.  It will show
    you your "DOT PATH" and ask if there's either a colon
    (":") or a backslash ("\") character at the end of the entry.
    If either of these two characters appears as the last character,
    you should answer "Yes".  If neither of the two characters
    is there, you should answer "No".  (I realize that this is 
    somewhat odd, but I promise, there's a good reason for it.)
    After you answer the question, just click OK.
12. When the macro has finished, copy and paste the
    contents of the document, you have two choices...
    a. Copy and paste the contents into the CJ_HTML.INI file
         or
    b. Save the file with the name "CJ_HTML.INI"
       and make certain to select the "TEXT ONLY" setting
       in the "Save File As Type" section (at the bottom of
       the File Save Dialog Box).
    The file should reside (or copied) to your WINDOWS
    directory. Make sure it's there.

Okay, that should do it for OPTION B.


To run the program, just...
Open Word
Select File, New
When the dialog box asks you which template you want to base your
document on, select the CJ_HTML template.
Click OK.
Two of Crackerjack's four toolbars should immediately appear and 
you can begin creating an HTML document.
 
------------------------------------------------------------------------

If something is amiss, it might be an uppercase/lowercase problem.
Duplicate the case in the example that appears at the top of
this page.

If you think it's ridiculous that Microsoft creates horrid, scary
messages when a macro merely reads directory and system information, 
you're not alone.  If you get peeved about it, I know how you feel.
If you feel you must write to someone to complain about it, you know
who to write. :)

                   The ATTACH CRACKERJACK TEMPLATE Tool

   This is entirely optional and if you choose to add the tool,
   it's a convenience, and does not affect the operation of the
   program.

   If you want to add the "Attach Crackerjack Template" Tool to your
   Standard Toolbar, you just use the usual Word methods.
   (The description of the tool can be found in the "CJ.HTM"
    file.  View it in any Web browser.)
   Here are the steps:

1. Open Word
2. Select File, New
3. When the dialog box asks you which template you want to base your
   document on, select the CJ_HTML template.
4. Click OK.
5. Choose Tools, Macro, Organizer
6. From Crackerjack's list of macros (on the left), select Attach Crackerjack Template.
7. Make sure the NORMAL.DOT list of macros is on the right and
   Choose Copy
8. Choose Close

You may then create a toolbar tool for the macro if you wish.
(Use the usual Word method...)

1. Select View, Toolbars, Customize
2. In the Categories Box, choose Macros
3. When the list of macros appears, select the Attach Crackerjack Template macro
4. Hold the left mouse button down and drag the Attach Crackerjack Template macro
   to your Standard toolbar.  (Usually the topmost toolbar.)
5. Choose a toolbar button face and click Assign
   or create one of your own by clicking Edit
6. Choose Close

Okay, it's done.
Now, whenever you open Word, the button will be there, ready to
start the Crackerjack program quickly for you.

You can delete the macro and the toolbar tool whenever you like.
To quickly delete macros and toolbar tools:

1. In Word for Windows: Hold down the ALT key and drag the tool off the toolbar.
   In Word for Macintosh, from the Tools Menu, choose Customize and then select
   the Toolbars tab, then drag the tool from the Toolbar.
2. In the Tools Menu, choose Macro, then click on the "Attach Crackerjack Template"
   entry (or whatever macro you want to delete) and press the DELETE key.
