Readme.txt

This readme is for Approach 97 Users installing additional ODBC 
Drivers from the Lotus FTP Site. The process involves five steps:

1. Unzip the files into a temporary directory
   
2. Copy the .dlls for the drivers into the appropriate Windows system
   directory.

   The appropriate Windows system directory depends on which version 
   of Windows you are running and what you have called your Windodws
   directory.

   Under Win 95:
   -------------
   For example, if your Windows directory is C:\Win95, the system 
   directory will be:

      C:\Win95\System

   Under Windows NT:
   -----------------
   For example, if your Windows directory is C:\WinNT351, the system
   directory will be the system32 directory (not the system directory):

      C:\WinNT351\System32
   
3. Update the included Registry file to reflect your system. 

   The Registry file included in the zip file with the driver 
   (odbcinst.reg) contains references to C:\Windows\System. If this is
   not your Windows system directory as determined in step 2, you will
   need to replace all occurances of C:\Windows\System with the 
   directory that is appropriate for your system. The Registry file is
   an ASCII file that is easily edited using Notepad.exe

4. Import the Registry file
    
   The Regustry file (odbcinst.reg) discussed in step 3, can be 
   imported into the Registry on your system by:
   
   Under All Platforms:
   --------------------
   running the Registry file:
      - double-clicking the file name in Explorer or File Manager
      - choosing run/odbcinst.reg

   Under Windows 95 or Windows NT 4:
   ---------------------------------
     - choosing File/Import within the regustry editor (Regedit.exe).

5. Configure the Driver
   
   Launch the ODBC Administrator (ODBCAd32.exe). If the import of the 
   Registry file was sucessfull, You will see the appropriate driver
   listed in the drivers section. 

   Most single-tier drivers require that you specify a default directory.
   In the ODBC Administrator, select the newly installed driver and click
   the Setup button to specify the appropriate default directory for the
   driver.
