 1. HOW TO GET HELP
-------------------
  If you have any problems, please read this file, the
  HELPME!.DOC and other files in your DOC subdirectory, and the
  Borland C++ manuals first. If you still have a question and
  need assistance, help is available from the following sources:

  1. Type

        GO BCPPDOS     - for questions pertaining to DOS

         or

        GO BCPPWIN     - for questions pertaining to Windows

     on the CompuServe bulletin board system for
     instant access to the Borland forums with their libraries of
     technical information and answers to common questions.

     If you are not a member of CompuServe, see the enclosed
     special offer, and write for full details on how to receive
     a free IntroPak containing a $15 credit toward your first
     month's on-line charges.

  2. Check with your local software dealer or users' group.

  3. Borland's TECHFAX service. Call (800) 822-4269 for a FAX 
     catalog of entries.

  4. If you have an urgent problem that cannot wait and you have
     sent in the license agreement that came with the package,
     you may call the Borland Technical Support Department at
     (408) 461-9133. Please have the following information ready
     before calling:

     a. Product name and serial number on your original
        distribution disk.  Please have your serial number ready
        or we will be unable to process your call.

     b. Product version number. The version number for Borland
        C++ can be displayed by pressing Alt-H/A in the IDE.

     c. Computer brand, model, and the brands and model numbers of
        any additional hardware.

     d. Operating system and version number. (The version number
        can be determined by typing VER at the DOS prompt.)

     e. Contents of your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.

     f. Contents of your CONFIG.SYS file.

 2. INSTALLATION
----------------

  You MUST use the INSTALL program to install Borland C++. The
  files on the distribution disks are all archived and have to be
  properly assembled.  You cannot do this by hand!

  Installing to the same directory structure as a previous version
  without erasing the directories is not recommended; you may
  encounter problems due to old header files, libraries, memory
  managers, or configuration files.

  To start the installation, change your current drive to the one
  that has the install program on it and type INSTALL.  You will
  be given instructions in a box at the bottom of the screen for
  each prompt. For example, if you will be installing from drive
  A:, type:

    A:
    INSTALL

  -  This INSTALL handles the installation of both the compiler
     and debugger and tools in one operation, and allows several
     new configuration options.

  -  Note: The list of files is contained in a separate file
     called FILELIST.DOC, which will appear in the target
     directory you specify during installation.

  -  After installation, make sure you insert \BORLANDC\BIN - or
     whatever you selected as your BIN directory - into
