Feel free to use and distribute this fully functional, free beta copy of 
HyperACCESS for OS/2. HyperACCESS for OS/2 is an exciting new program from 
the makers of the top-selling OS/2 communications program HyperACCESS/5, and 
HyperACCESS Lite in the BonusPak bundled with OS/2 Warp. We want you to see 
what's coming from us, and welcome your feedback! 

Though nearly complete, this beta still has some bugs. You can help us by 
reporting any problems you encounter that are not already listed later in 
this file. We will only respond if we need more information. As with any 
beta software, Hilgraeve assumes no risk of potential loss or damage to data 
arising from use of this beta software.

Installation
------------

Follow these steps to install HyperACCESS for OS/2:

If you received HyperACCESS v6.0 as zipped files:

HyperACCESS v6.0 Beta #3 is provided as two zipped, named HAB3_D1.ZIP and 
HAB3_D2.ZIP, which are files containing the HyperACCESS installation files 
in a compressed format. You must have both files in order to install Hyper-
ACCESS. You will need to uncompress these files to generate the files 
necessary to install and run HyperACCESS.  Here's the procedure:

   NOTE: You will need the uncompression utility PKUNZIP.EXE version 1.01 
         or later to unzip these files. This utility is available on nearly
         all online services.

1. Open an OS/2 window, and change to the drive and/or directory containing
   the downloaded files.

2. Type PKUNZIP HAB3_D1 <destination>, and then press ENTER.  Replace 
   <destination> with the drive and/or directory where you want the 
   HyperACCESS files to be copied.  We recommend that the destination be a 
   floppy drive containing a blank, formatted 1.2M or 1.44M diskette.  That 
   way, you can use this diskette to install HyperACCESS on each of the PCs 
   that you use for testing HyperACCESS.

     Example:  PKUNZIP HAB3_D1 A:

3. Repeat step 2 for the file HAB3_D2.ZIP.  If uncompressing these files to 
   floppy disks, make sure that you label them as DISK1 and DISK2.

4. Once the installation files have been created continue with the steps
   below.

HyperACCESS Installation PHASE I
================================

1. Change to the drive/directory containing the HyperACCESS installation
   files.

2. Type SETUP.

3. Specify the directories for the Program and Data files. These may be the
   same location or different location depending on your preferences. Click OK
   to continue.

   NOTE: Program files may be installed to a directory that is set to read-only
         after installation and may be shared with other users. Data files must
         be in a writable directory and should not be shared.
   
4. Click Continue after reading the next status message. HyperACCESS's files 
   will be copied to the specified directories.

5. Change the floppy disk to disk #2 or specify the directory in which the 
   disk2 files are located when prompted. Click OK to continue.

6. Click Continue after reading the next status message to begin Phase II of
   the installation.

PHASE II
========

1. Enter all user information. Click Continue when finished.

2. Select the type of connection you will most often use. Click OK to 
   continue.

3. If you chose "Modem or Modem Pool" as your connection type, select an 
   appropriate modem from the selection list. Click OK to continue.

4. Select the interface to connect through. Then select the Com port you will 
   use most often. Click OK to continue.

5. If you chose "Modem or Modem Pool" as your connection type, select the 
   dialing method your phone system uses. Click OK to continue.

6. If you chose "Modem or Modem Pool" as your connection type, enter a 
   dialing prefix if your phone system requires one (such as '9' to
   get an outside line). Otherwise, leave this field blank. Click OK to
   continue.

7. Specify your default download and upload directories. If you leave these
   field blank, whichever directory is currently selected at the time of the
   transfer will be used. Click OK to continue.

8. Click OK after reading final status message.

9. Reboot machine so that changes made may take effect.

You are now ready to run HyperACCESS for OS/2.

Reporting Bugs
--------------

Please include the build number in all bug reports. The build number
may be found by selecting Help, then Product Information from any 
HyperACCESS panel. This will help us to identify which bugs are
associated with a particular build. It will also allow you to identify
if you have the most recent version of the software.

When you report bugs, please try to provide enough detail so that Hilgraeve 
will be able to reproduce the problem.  It is much more useful to hear "when I 
do this, then this, then this, the program misbehaves in this way," than to 
hear that something "doesn't work right." Keep in mind that too much 
information is much better than not enough.

Remember that we're looking for more than just bug reports; we also want to
know what you think.  So please give us your comments and opinions, and let us
know what additional features you would like to see in future versions.  We
would also love to receive a detailed account of how you use HyperACCESS in
your particular field of business.  We might even want to share your
experiences in articles, reviews, or advertisements (with your prior approval,
of course).

Hilgraeve's may be contacted through the following means:

     Compuserve ID:  71333,31
     INTERNET:custsupt@hilgraeve.com
     FAX: 313-243-0645
     BBS: 313-243-5915
     
We will not guarantee a respond. However, if more information is needed to 
reproduce or resolve a problem with the software we will contact you. Please 
do not report bugs by phone.

Installed Files
---------------

Other than placing these files in the directories specified during 
installation, HyperACCESS makes one or two additional changes to your system.
It places an entry in your OS2.INI to specify the program and user
directories, and if you elected to have Setup modify your CONFIG.SYS file,
the HyperACCESS program directory is added to the LIBPATH and HELP statements
within that file.
