Other important Notes concerning the Installation

• During the installation of SaveRefs, you may get a message that one or more items (typically DLL or OCX files) cannot be installed. The usual reason for this is that the file in question is being used by Windows AT THAT TIME so cannot be replaced. You are offered the choice of 'Retry' or 'Cancel'. 'Retry' seldom works - you should choose 'Cancel'. This WILL NOT abort the installation, but just POSTPONE the installation of THAT ITEM ONLY until you RESTART Windows, which you will be asked to do when the installation ends.
• If problems arise during installation, due to the automatic action of Anti-Virus and Anti-Spyware programmes it may be a good idea to temporarily disable them - some of these programmes, in trying to protect your PC, will prevent installers from working properly. This DOES NOT mean that there are viruses or spyware in SaveRefs.
• To temporarily disable such programmes, the best way is to RIGHT CLICK on their icon in the 'Tray' area (ie where the time is displayed) of the TaskBar and select Suspend, Exit, Unload or similar option.
• When you NEXT restart your PC these programmes will restart again.
• To protect your PC from threats while any such programmes are temporarily disabled, DISCONNECT your PC from the Internet by unplugging the Phone/Cable connection.
• Some of these protection programmes will ask you if certain actions should be permitted - if you have disconnected from the Internet, any such questions posed during the installation of SaveRefs can be accepted

UNINSTALLING SaveRefs

Use 'My Computer', 'Control Panel', 'Add/Remove Programs'. Select SaveRefs from the list, and then click on 'Add/Remove'

• N.B. When programmes are uninstalled, for safety reasons, NOT EVERYTHING is removed. Files and/or Folders (usually found under the installation folder) created AFTER the installation was finished will often be left. The reason for this is because such files and folders will very often contain USER CREATED Data which could be inadvertently lost if removed by the uninstaller. It is left to the USER to Manually remove any such items.

GENERAL

Running the Programs

To START SaveRefs, double click the Icon on the Desktop.

The programme briefly displays an ‘About’ screen, and then shows the Programme Start page. Icons along the LEFT HAND side of the page willthen give you access to all routines available.

Unless you turn it off on the 'User Setup' screen, you will see 'Brief Information' panels displaying a brief explanatory note on most items as the mouse cursor passes over them.

Please use the Manuals and Help Menu and other Help features in the program. The answers to most queries that I get are covered in the manuals or in the Help File.

Don't forget that you can press the ‘F1’ key at any time to get help. The Help you will see will usually relate directly to the programme  page that is currently open.
