AUXILIARY FILES for U.S. EXPORTS HISTORY, 1994-1998

****************************************************************************

  These auxiliary files replace defective files on the 1998 Exports History
  disc.

****************************************************************************

** Installing auxiliary files **

1a. If you are installing import and export auxiliary files for the first
    time, create a new directory on your hard disk, and make this the
    current directory.  Putting this new directory under a main \EXTRACT
    directory may help you remember what these files are for.  (Do not use a
    directory in use for other auxiliary files.)

       C:
       CD \EXTRACT
       MD EXPHIS98

2.  Uncompress the files onto your hard disk, assuming the source is your
    A: drive--

       a:\FTDEXH98 C:\EXTRACT\EXPHIS98 -n                       <ENTER>

    The FTDEXH98.EXE file is a "self-extracting" archive that contain
    catalog, data dictionary and other auxiliary files which EXTRACT needs
    in order to select and display data from the 1997 exports History CD-ROM.

3.  Copy a batch file to your c:\EXTRACT directory.

       COPY C:\EXTRACT\EXPHIS98\EXEXPO98.BAT C:\EXTRACT\

    If your CD-ROM drive is anything other than D:, edit the file to
    change the D: on the second line to the appropriate designation.


****************************************************************************

** Starting EXTRACT to work with the 1998 Exports History disc **

1.  Make the directory with EXTRACT.EXE in it the current directory:

       CD \EXTRACT                       <ENTER>

2.  Start the program with the batch file copied earlier.

       EXEXPO98                           <ENTER>

** For More Information **

See the documentation, EXTRACT.DOC, available in the \EXTRACT directory of
the CD-ROM.
