--------------------------------------------
Part 1 - What is EasyNet?
--------------------------------------------

 EasyNet/OCX is a custom control which allows to develop QUICKLY
an application that needs to manage a network diagram (workflow, 
data base diagram, organigrams, communication networks, state 
transition diagrams, etc...). 

* Drawing can be made interactively or programmaticaly.  
* You may move, resize, stretch each item.
* You may associate user data to each item 
* You may navigate in the network diagram.
* Distinct pictures, colors, draw styles for each item. 
* Multi-selection, multi-line wordwrapped text, metafile support,
zooming, + many other features. 
* Many properties, events and methods allow you to "customize" your
diagramming application.
* RUNTIME ROYALTY FREE

 EasyNet/OCX programmatic interface is described in EZNET.HLP file. 


------------------------------------------
Part 2 - Version Informations
------------------------------------------

In 16 bits environment, use EZNET16.OCX.
In 32 bits environment, use EZNET32.OCX. 


Other environments
******************

This product has been tested under WIN95 and VB4 environment. 
The 32 bits version is working also under Visual C++ 4.x 

Version enhancements
********************

------------------------------------------
Part 3 - Package description
------------------------------------------

 The EasyNet/OCX package is a ZIP file that contains the 
following files:

DEMO32.EXE    Demo sample (VB4 32 bits executable)
DEMO.ZIP      Demo sample VB4 source files
EDITOR.ZIP    Editor sample VB4 source files
NAVIG.ZIP     Navig sample VB4 source files 
PINS.ZIP      Pins sample VB4 source files
EZNET32.OCX   EasyNet/OCX 32 bits beta version 
EZNET16.OCX   EasyNet/OCX 16 bits beta version 
EZNET.HLP     EasyNet/OCX help file.
README.TXT    This text file.


Remarks:
--------
    
  * All samples are written with VB4.

  * If you don't know EasyNet, you should run first DEMO32.EXE.

  * The Editor allows to draw diagrams and to save them in files.
    Note that the saving procedure used in this program is just an 
    example. You should adapt it to your needs or rewrite a better
    procedure. 

  * The Navig sample demonstrates how to use navigation methods.

  * The Pins sample demonstrates how to use Owner and Sleeping 
    properties to allow links to reach any point (pins) of a node,
    not only to be directed towards its center.

------------------------------------------
Part 3 - Converting from VBX
------------------------------------------

EasyNet/OCX is compatible with the vbx version.
See help file in order to see how to convert your old VB3 application
that uses EasyNet.vbx into a new VB4 application that uses EasyNet/OCX.

You may find the EasyNet/OCX package on Compuserve:
	forum: GO VBPJ 
	section: VB4 Third party 
	File name: EZNET.ZIP

You may find the EasyNet/VBX package on Compuserve:
	forum: GO VBPJ 
	section: VB3 Third party 
	File name: EASYNET.ZIP

You may also find those products on InterNet at the following address:

	http://www.lassalle.com

------------------------------------------
Part 4 - Registration, Order Form, License
------------------------------------------ 

 The demo controls here are fully functional in design mode, but they
will not work in an application compiled without license file.
 If you generate an EXE file with EasyNet/OCX but without a license 
file, then any attempt to use this EXE file will display a dialog box
explaining that it has been generated without license file and that
the EasyNet control will not work.
 If you register, you will receive (usually within 2 business days 
from the registration date) a license file allowing you to 
compile applications that work properly with EasyNet. 

You may register directly via Compuserve in the 
Shareware Registration Forum (GO SWREG).
		SWREG number:	8739 
		Price:		$159

Important: EasyNet is RUNTIME ROYALTY FREE.

See help file for all registration information, order form and 
license agreement.


------------------------------------------
Part 5 - AddFlow = EasyNet successor!!
------------------------------------------ 

EASYNET HAS A SUCCESSOR: ADDFLOW.

You may find it on Compuserve:	forum: GO MSBASI
				File name: ADDFLO.ZIP
This file contains the full installation package (1,8 Mb).

AddFlow offers unique support to create diagrams 
interactively or programmaticaly. Each time you 
need to graphically display interactive diagrams, 
you should consider using AddFlow: workflow, process
flows, networks, organisational charts, state diagrams,
etc... 
Independant colors, fonts, shapes, pictures, text, styles
for each object of the diagram. Nodes stay connected when 
moved or resized. Links may be stretched in multiple segments 
or in elegant Bezier curves. Metafiles support, zoom, scroll, 
multiple selections, multi-line wrapped text, backPicture, 
navigation, user data association.

The programmatic interface is object-oriented and standard, 
thus avoiding an inflation of confusing properties and methods. 
AddFlow is just an easy, fast, flexible, light, customizable 
ActiveX Control.
AddFlow can be used in many developer environments like Visual
Basic, Visual C++, Access, Delphi, PowerBuilder, etc... 
AddFlow is a MFC (Microsoft Foundation Class) based ActiveX 
control. The term ActiveX is now also being used for controls 
of this type. This is partly because such controls can be placed
 on a HTML page as part of a Internet application. 

AddFlow is the successor of EasyNet although it is
NOT COMPATIBLE with it. The programmatic interface 
is quite different: AddFlow is based on OLE Automation 
and collections. AddFlow Items (Nodes and links) are 
objects and you can directly change their properties.
For instance, AddFlow allows to write code like this:

  ' Make all nodes rectangular
  Dim node as afNode

  For Each node In AddFlow1.Nodes  ' Nodes enumeration
    node.Shape = afRectangle       
  Next

AddFlow is EASIER, FASTER and CHEAPER than EasyNet. 
Moreover AddFlow has new features like Bezier Curves, 
rigid links, bidirectional links.
