I.   Safety instructions
------------------------
Please make a backup copy of Your old projects, components
and component packages. So in case something goes wrong during 
component installation, You can copy back Your backup files.


II.  First time installation
----------------------------
Please follow these steps for a TBarcode first time installation:

1. Unzip the TBarcode ZIP archive to a directory of Your choice
2. Start Delphi-3 and close any opened project
3. Choose "Component | Install Component" in the Delphi-3 menu.
4. Click the [Browse] button in line "Unit file name"
5. Browse for file "BARCODE.PAS", then click [OK] button
6. Click for [Yes] to rebuild the package
7. Close the "Package" window and click [Yes] to save changes

After that You have a "Schlottke" page on your component palette
with two new components: TBarcode and TQRBarcode.


II. Update installation
-----------------------
Please follow these steps for a TBarcode update installation
(i.e. when updating from shareware to licensed version):

1. Unzip the TBarcode ZIP archive to a directory of Your choice
   (If You are already a registerd user of an older 32-bit version,
    copy Your licensed file BARCOD32.RES into the same directory
    where the file BARCODE.PAS resides).
2. Start Delphi-3 and close any opened project
3. Choose "Component | Install Packages"
4. Select "Delphi User's components" and click [Edit] button
5. Select "Barcode" unit and click [Remove], then [Add]
6. Browse for unit file name "BARCODE.PAS" and click [OK]
7. Click [Compile]
8. Close the "Package" window and click [Yes] to save changes

Hint: If the file BARCODE.PAS stays in the same directory during the 
update, because You have overwritten the old files with a new TBarcode 
version, then the steps 5. and 6. can be left out.

After You have installed the barcode component, You can check the
properties "Code_Version" and "Code_License" in any TBarcode object.

Complete reference (including DOC and HLP files) for TBarcode can be
found in the shareware version TBarcode v2.91 on authors homepage.

TBarcode is shareware. You must register for a licensed version to
use TBarcode for other than evaluation purposes.
