QuickShelf Starting with Word

Manual Integration of Bookshelf with Word for Windows 6.0
---------------------------------------------------------
The following directions assume your hard disk drive is drive C,
that Bookshelf and QuickShelf are installed in C:\BOOKS94, Windows
is installed in C:\WINDOWS, Word 6.0 for Windows is installed
in C:\WINWORD and that your CD-ROM drive is drive X. If any of
these locations are different for your installation, please use
the appropriate locations when following these directions.
 
To manually integrate Bookshelf with Word 6.0 for Windows:
 
1. Copy X:\WORD\BOOKSHLF.DLL to C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM
 
2. Copy X:\WORD\BSWORD.HLP to C:\WINWORD
 
3. Copy X:\WORD\BSH.WLL to C:\WINWORD\STARTUP
 
4. Use Notepad or any other text editor to add the following
   entries to the [Bookshelf] section of the WIN.INI file:
 
   [Bookshelf]
   integration=3
   LastQuote=1
   BSWordHelp=C:\WINWORD\BSWORD.HLP
 
========================
BOOKSHELF AND WINDOWS NT
========================
 
The following are known issues related to using Bookshelf with
Windows NT. Where possible, solutions or workarounds are provided.
 
Audio and NT
------------
* When Bookshelf is installed on a machine running
Windows NT 3.1, you may not hear audio clips, such as
pronunciations, in Bookshelf. Windows NT 3.1 cannot play
audio in the format that Bookshelf uses.
 
QuickShelf Find and NT
----------------------
* When your machine is running Windows NT, you can
experience problems when you select a word in another
application and use QuickShelf to perform a full-text
search on the word in Bookshelf. Bookshelf will appear
but the search will not be performed because QuickShelf
cannot move the text out of the application running in NT.
 
Keep Bookshelf open on your desktop as an icon, so you
have easy access to it from other applications when you
want to do a full-text search on a word.
 
QuickShelf Keys and NT
----------------------
* When your machine is running Windows NT, you may
not be able to use QuickShelf key combinations from 32-bit
applications because QuickShelf cannot move text out
of these NT applications.
 
In this case, keep Bookshelf open on your desktop as an icon;
this way you will have quick access to it.
 
================
QUICKSHELF NOTES
================
 
For QuickShelf and Windows NT issues, see the "Bookshelf and
Windows NT" section, above.
 
QuickShelf Keys and MS-DOS Use
------------------------------
* QuickShelf keys allow you to look up selected text in Bookshelf
from any Windows application. However, you cannot
bring up Bookshelf using QuickShelf keys from an MS-DOS
application or from the MS-DOS prompt.  Additionally, selected
text in an MS-DOS application will not be used to perform a
QuickShelf lookup when using the QuickShelf buttons.
Other windows applications that do not copy text in the
standard way also may not work with QuickShelf.
 
QuickShelf and Quote of the Day
-------------------------------
* Whenever you use the Quote of the Day dialog box, the
QuickShelf keys are disabled.
 
QuickShelf and the Clipboard
----------------------------
* Clicking a QuickShelf button or using a QuickShelf key
combination replaces the contents of the Clipboard.
 
Moving the QuickShelf Toolbar
-----------------------------
* Open the QuickShelf Customize menu by either right-clicking
on the Toolbar or by left-clicking the down arrow button
at the right end of the Toolbar, and then clicking Customize.
Click the Customize View Tab, and then select either Regular
buttons or Large buttons, and click OK. QuickShelf now
has a title bar you can click in and then drag to a new
location.
