                                                          Version 4.0.02

  BEFORE INSTALLING THE POWERBUILDER DESKTOP DEPLOYMENT KIT

  1.  IMPORTANT:  If Microsoft Windows is installed in a write-protected network 
       directory, a person with write privileges to the Windows directory should install 
       this product. If you choose to install system files in an alternate directory, 
       then the installation has to be completed manually.

  2.  Review the Product Release Notes, if any, for special instructions pertaining to
       the installation of this product. The Release Notes are in the file RNOTES40.TXT
       on the CD-ROM. If you have diskettes, you can download RNOTES40.TXT from
       CompuServe or get FaxLine document #4005 (see Powersoft Customer 
       Services below).

  3.  Be sure that no other programs are running, except for Program Manager and 
       File Manager. If other programs are running, especially Powersoft products or 
       Watcom SQL, exit them now.

       NOTE: During installation you may not be prompted for every diskette in the set.
       The diskettes the Setup Program requests depend on the options you select.


  TO INSTALL THE DEPLOYMENT KIT FROM DISKETTES

  1.  Insert the diskette labeled "Disk 1 of 5" into the floppy drive of your computer.

  2.  Run the SETUP program on the diskette in one of the following ways.
       (This example uses Drive A--your floppy drive may be a different letter.)

           *  From Windows Program Manager, choose File>Run and type:  A:\SETUP
           *  From Windows File Manager, double-click SETUP.EXE on Drive A

  TO INSTALL THE DEPLOYMENT KIT FROM THE CD-ROM

      Run SETUP.EXE in the root directory of the CD-ROM and select 
      Desktop Deployment Kit from the list of products.


  CHOOSING WHAT TO INSTALL

     Read the following descriptions of the selections:

           *  Deployment DLLs:  Installs files necessary for running your PowerBuilder 
               executable files.  

           *  Open Database Connectivity Drivers:  Installs vendor ODBC drivers 
              in your Windows System directory (for example, c:\windows\system). 
              The Watcom SQL ODBC driver is selected by default. Click Options to 
              choose other drivers. Vendor ODBC drivers require PowerBuilder's
              native ODBC driver, the default choice for Native Database Drivers.

     The Advanced button allows you to specify alternate directories for files 
     that need to be installed in the Windows and Windows System directories.

DURING INSTALLATION

     The installation procedure will prompt you:

           *  When the procedure needs the next diskette or more information, or when
               it requires a decision to change or replace files.  Respond to the prompts
               and select options as appropriate.  Your AUTOEXEC.BAT is not modified
               when installing only the ODBC Interface.

           *  When the procedure finds existing Powersoft initialization (*.INI) files in
               the target directory or newer versions of ODBC drivers in your Windows
               system subdirectory, such as ODBC.DLL and ODBCINST.DLL.  If you are
               unsure as to how to proceed, consult your system administrator.
     
           *  When the procedure is ready to update the System Registry. In addition to 
               installing OLE DLLs, Setup enables object linking and embedding by 
               merging OLE information from the file OLE2.REG.

           *  When the procedure is ready to update your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.  You can
               choose to let the installation procedure change the existing file, create a
               new file for you, or proceed without making any file changes.  Your
               AUTOEXEC.BAT is not modified when installing only the ODBC Interface.

  AFTER RUNNING SETUP

  1.  Exit to DOS and verify that the directory for the PowerBuilder Deployment Kit 
       is included in your DOS PATH command and that your PATH command does not 
       exceed 128 characters.  This will happen automatically if you let the installation
       procedure update your AUTOEXEC.BAT file in the previous step.  The DOS
       PATH is not modified when installing only the ODBC Interface files because they
       should be installed in an existing PowerBuilder directory.

  2.  If you used the Advanced button to install system files in alternate directories,
       see "Installation and Deployment Guide," which has instructions for moving 
       files to their proper places.

  3.  Reboot your PC and start Windows.


  ADDENDUM TO LIST OF DEPLOYMENT DLLS

  In addition to the files listed in the Installation and Deployment guide, the 
  following OLE DLLs are also installed by the Deployment Kit:

      COMPOBJ.DLL
      OLE2.REG
      OLE2.DLL
      OLE2CONV.DLL
      OLE2DISP.DLL
      OLE2NLS.DLL
      OLE2PROX.DLL
      STDOLE.TLB
      STORAGE.DLL
      TYPELIB.DLL
