Installation Instructions

  1. Download the TB treatment guidelines Palm OS program installation file. This is a compressed file that will self-extract when installed onto your Palm device.
     
  2. At the prompt, save the installation file to a location on your computer.
     
  3. After the file has been saved to your computer, use an Install Tool to install (hotsync) it onto your Palm device.
     
  4. After installing the file to your Palm device, tap the program icon on your Palm device.

    The program will be called "Install TB Tx".

    The program will self-extract and complete its installation, and then start the actual TB treatment guidelines program. After this point, the installation file icon will no longer be visible. It will be replaced by the TB Tx Palm program icon.
