    ------------------------ SUMMARY ----------------------------------

    BiblioFile is a PLMS - Personal Library Management System.  With
    configurable reports and detailed information tracking, it is a
    powerful yet easy way to track a personal, professional, or
    company library.

    ------------------ TO INSTALL AND RUN -----------------------------

    To install BiblioFile, simply copy all the files to the
    appropriate location and then just type BF.  All necessary file
    configuration will be done automatically.

    One example of the keystrokes for installation might be:

     Command                 Action
    C: <Enter>           Change to the C: drive, your hard drive.
    CD\ <Enter>          Make sure you are in the root directory.
    MD\BF <Enter>        Make a directory called BF for BiblioFile.
    CD\BF <Enter>        Change to the BF directory.
    COPY A:*.*  <Enter>  Copy all the files from the A: drive.  This
                         assumes that the BiblioFile files are on a
                         floppy disk in the A: drive.
    BF <Enter>           Start the BiblioFile program.


    NOTE: Because of the file creation that takes place on startup
          and the read/write nature of a database, BiblioFile cannot
          be run from CDROM media.  If you received BiblioFile on
          CDROM, please copy it to another disk before attempting to
          run it.

    ------------------------ FILE LIST --------------------------------

    The files in this package can be identified as follows:
       BF.EXE       - The executable BiblioFile program.  This is the
                      only file absolutely necessary to run
                      BiblioFile.  All other required files will be
                      created by the program as needed.
