The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Schedule+ for Windows, version 1.0
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This article is addressed to the network administrator and outlines the
procedure for setting up Microsoft Schedule+ when Schedule+ is run from the
network, and no Schedule+ files are stored locally on the users'
workstations. The first section tells how to set up Schedule+ when
Microsoft Windows and Schedule+ are run entirely from the network. The
second section tells how to set up Schedule+ when Windows is run locally
and Schedule+ is run from the network.
NOTE: Schedule+ version 1.0 was not designed to be run directly from the
network. Because the file I/O that normally occurs on the local workstation
is being handled by the network, running Schedule+ from the network may
decrease Schedule+'s performance.
RUNNING WINDOWS AND SCHEDULE+ FROM THE NETWORK
----------------------------------------------
Definitions:
- <WINSHARE> refers to the shared location of the network installation of
Windows.
- <WINTEMP> refers to a temporary directory for a temporary installation
of Windows.
- <MYDIR> refers to the user's network directory where the user stores
his or her own Windows files (this will include the *.INI and *.GRP files).
INSTALLATION STEPS:
To set up the Schedule+ 1.0 shared files
1. Create the <WINTEMP> directory on the server or a local workstation,
and run "setup /n" (without the quotation marks) from the <WINSHARE>
directory to create a new installation of Windows in the <WINTEMP>
directory.
2. Run Windows from <WINTEMP> Use the Windows File Manager to start Setup
by double-clicking SETUP.EXE on the Schedule+ Program Setup Disk #2.
During setup:
a. Choose Custom Setup.
b. When Setup prompts for the Schedule+ directory, type "WINSHARE" (without
the quotation marks) as the location. For example, type "L:\WINDOWS"
(without the quotation marks) if this is the location of the network
version of Windows.
c. When Setup asks if you want to install the Schedule+ Reminder program to
load automatically, choose the No button.
d. When Setup is complete and it asks if you want to Run Schedule+, Run
Demos, or Exit To Windows, choose Exit To Windows.
This process will install all the Schedule+ for Windows program files in the
same directory as Windows and create a clean SCHDPLUS.INI file.
3. Set all files in <WINSHARE> to Read-Only. For Novell(R) networks, set
the files to Shareable and Read-Only.
4. Copy SCHDPLUS.INI from <WINTEMP> to <WINSHARE>.
5. Remove <WINTEMP> (including all files and the directory).
To set up a user for Schedule+ 1.0
1. Copy SCHDPLUS.INI from <WINSHARE>to <MYDIR>.
2. In a group in the Windows Program Manager create a Microsoft Schedule+ 1.0
icon with the following properties:
Description: Microsoft Schedule+
Command Line: <WINSHARE>\SCHDPLUS.EXE
Working Directory: <WINSHARE>
Shortcut Key: None
Run Minimized Not checked
3. Modify each user's WIN.INI file to include the following setting:
[Sounds]
SchdplusReminder=<WINSHARE>\MSREMIND.WAV,Schedule+ Reminders
4. If a user wants to be automatically reminded of scheduling messages, create
an icon in the Startup group to start the file MSREMIND.EXE.
5. Verify that the <WINSHARE> directory is in the MS-DOS search path for
each user.
RUNNING WINDOWS LOCALLY AND SCHEDULE+ FROM THE NETWORK
------------------------------------------------------
Definitions:
- <WINDIR> refers to an individual user's locally installed Windows
directory.
- <SCHDPLUS> refers to the Microsoft Schedule+ directory on the network
server.
INSTALLATION STEPS:
To set up the Schedule+ 1.0 shared files and the first user
1. Run Windows from the first user's workstation. Use the Windows File Manager
to start Setup by double-clicking SETUP.EXE on the Schedule+ Program Setup
Disk #2. During setup:
a. Choose Custom Setup.
b. When Setup prompts for the Schedule+ directory, type "SCHDPLUS" (without
the quotation marks) as the location. For example, type "L:\SCHEDULE"
(without the quotation marks) if this is the location of the
network-shared copy of Schedule+.
c. When Setup asks if you want to install the Schedule+ Reminder program to
load automatically, choose the No button.
d. When Setup is complete and it asks if you want to Run Schedule+, Run
Demos, or Exit To Windows, choose Exit To Windows.
This process will install all the Schedule+ program files and create a clean
SCHDPLUS.INI file.
2. Copy the following files from the first user's workstation to
<SCHDPLUS>:
<WINDIR>\SCHDPLUS.INI
<WINDIR>\WINHELP.EXE
<WINDIR>\SYSTEM\SHELL.DLL
<WINDIR>\SYSTEM\COMMDLG.DLL
(Schedule+-specific DLL files:)
<WINDIR>\SYSTEM\NVCONN.DLL
<WINDIR>\SYSTEM\TRNSCHED.DLL
<WINDIR>\SYSTEM\PABNSP.DLL
<WINDIR>\SYSTEM\MAILMGR.DLL
<WINDIR>\SYSTEM\MAILSPL.EXE
<WINDIR>\SYSTEM\DEMILAYR.DLL
<WINDIR>\SYSTEM\AB.DLL
<WINDIR>\SYSTEM\STORE.DLL
<WINDIR>\SYSTEM\FRAMEWRK.DLL
<WINDIR>\SYSTEM\MSSFS.DLL
3. Remove all the above "Schedule+-specific DLL files" from
<WINDIR>\SYSTEM.
To set up additional users for Schedule+ 1.0
1. Copy SCHDPLUS.INI from <SCHDPLUS> to <WINDIR>.
2. In a group in the Windows Program Manager create a Microsoft Schedule+ 1.0
icon with the following properties:
Description: Microsoft Schedule+
Command Line: <SCHDPLUS>\SCHDPLUS.EXE
Working Directory: <SCHDPLUS>
Shortcut Key: None
Run Minimized Not checked
3. Modify each user's WIN.INI file to include the following setting:
[Sounds]
SchdplusReminder=<SCHDPLUS>\MSREMIND.WAV,Schedule+ Reminders
4. If a user wants to be automatically reminded of scheduling messages, create
an icon in the Startup group to start the file MSREMIND.EXE.
5. Place the <SCHDPLUS> directory in the MS-DOS search path for each
user.
NOTE: If you are using Windows version 3.0, you must replace the following
file in your <WINDIR> directory with the copy found in the
<SCHDPLUS> directory for the Schedule+ Help to operate properly:
WINHELP.EXE Windows 3.1 Help engine
