MAS 90 For Windows ========================= CD-ROM Release - REV 0298 2-25-98 Release Notes Welcome to the CD-ROM installation

version of MAS90 For Windows (90/W). Please read these instructions before starting 90/W. *** This CD-ROM addresses the issue where the COMCTL32.DLL file is being copied over a newer version in certain brands of computers using Windows 95 OSR-2. Upgrading from MAS 90 Level 3: If you have upgraded applications from MAS 90 Level 3 to 90/W, you must register the 90/W serial numbers and unlocking keys in Product Registration before the 90/W application programs will be available. Until the 90/W serial numbers and unlocking keys are registered, only character application programs will be available. The first character of a 90/W serial number is W. The first character of a Level 3 serial number is M. 40 free accesses: If you install 90/W modules that you have not purchased, you will be able to access the module 40 times before you will be locked out. You are welcome to preview any of these modules; however, once the module has been accessed 40 times, you will no longer be able to access any data created for this module. Contact your reseller or consultant to purchase this module. Once a valid serial number and unlocking key have been entered for the module, all data previously created for the module will be completely intact and accessible. DO NOT INTEGRATE any of your registered modules with a nonregistered module unless you plan on purchasing that module.
