                   About Change Wallpaper

     Change Wallpaper is a utility used to change the
Windows wallpaper bitmap file at intervals defined by the
user.
     
     The program will choose picture from within an entire
directory. It can choose pictures randomly, or sequentially.
     
     When pictures are chose randomly, the program keeps
track of the pictures it chooses. This way, it will display
all of the pictures in the chosen directory before it
refreshes its list and starts all over.
     
     I have not wasted a lot of time putting in all kinds of
little features and functions that very few people, if
anybody, will ever use. That results in bloatware. This
program is small and fast.

     I will entertain ideas for enhancements, bug reports,
suggestions, comments, etc. Please contact me at
Software@DaveGrund.Com. Technical support is available for
free via e-mail.

                              
                    Program Installation

     Change Wallpaper is manually installed.
     
     1)   Create a directory (folder) for the sole use of Change
       Wallpaper.
     2)   Copy the distribution file, CW30.ZIP into that
       directory.
     3)   Unzip that file using your favorite unzipping program.
     4)   After all of the files are expanded, MOVE CW30.ZIP to a
       diskette or somewhere else for safe keeping, out of that
       directory.
     5)   Create a Windows shortcut to the program, with no
       command line parameters. Put this shortcut with all of your
       other Windows applications. This is the one you will use to
       call the program up on demand.

     The program does not use the Windows Registry, and
there are no DLL's to install. If you wish to uninstall
(sob), simply delete the directory and its contents, and the
uninstall is clean and complete.

     
                              
                      Program Operation

     Change Wallpaper will start "minimized". It will begin
by dropping an icon in the System Tray (at the lower right-
hand corner of the screen).

     To get to the main screen, either double-click on the
icon, or right-click, and then choose maximize.

     To quit the program, right-click on the icon, and
choose "close".

     From the main screen, you can delete pictures that you
do not wish to display as wallpaper. Caution: This will
physically delete the pictures from disk!

     My suggestion is that you choose a separate directory
for all of the pictures that you want to display in Change
Wallpaper. Copy all of your precious pictures into that
directory. Then, if there are pictures you no longer wish to
display, deleting them from this directory will not be a
problem.
