Opening the installation guide and readme file
The installation guide provides information about how to install and uninstall
the product, as well as product requirements and optional features. The
readme file contains last-minute updates, valuable information, and workarounds
that are not available in the online help, or not available until you update.
To be sure that you have the latest online help, use Rational Product Updater,
which you can access after installing the product by clicking Start > Programs > IBM Rational > Rational Product Updater. See the installation guide for more information.
To open the Development Studio Client installation guide or readme file:
- Insert Disk 1 of the product installation CDs.

- Open one or both documents in a Web browser:
