Setting Up Applications

After you install an application on your system, you can use Windows Setup to create an icon for the application so you can run it from within Windows for Workgroups.

You can direct Setup to search local drives or the current path.

Setup creates an icon in a Program Manager group window for each application you add. However, Setup will add an icon for an MS-DOS--based application only if the appropriate program information file (PIF) exists. Setup includes information for many applications, but not all. If Setup does not create a PIF for the application you want to add, you can create one by using PIF Editor.

If you are adding just one Windows-based application, it may be easier to use Program Manager. If you are adding several Windows-based applications, or one or more MS-DOS--based applications, use Windows Setup.

To add an application to Windows for Workgroups

1	From the Options menu, choose Set Up Applications.

2	Choose the OK button to search all your local drive(s) for existing applications.

3	In the list, select the locations you want Setup to search.

4	Choose the Search Now button.

When Setup finishes its search, it displays in the left box the names of the applications it found.

5	Click each application you want.

Or use the arrow keys to move to each application you want, and then press the SPACEBAR to select it.

To cancel a selection, select it again.

Note:	When you select an application, Setup displays the application's path in the lower-left corner of the dialog box. Because more than one application can have the same name, check the path to make sure the application is the one you want.

Also, because Setup identifies each application by its program filename, at times it may display the wrong name. (For example, WordPerfect® and Microsoft Multiplan both use the name WP.EXE.) Check the names of the applications Setup finds to verify that they are the correct applications.

6	To move selected applications to the right box, choose the Add button or press ALT+A.

Or, to move all the listed applications to the right box, choose the Add All button or press ALT+D.

If you change your mind after adding an application to the right box, select the application, and then choose the Remove button. Or press ALT+R.

7	Choose the OK button after you have added all the applications you want to set up.
