                     EXCAL, THE WORKPLACE CALENDAR, VERSION 3.0m

          If you are upgrading from ExCal 2.x, please read the section
          below titled "UPGRADING TO NEW VERSIONS OF EXCAL".

INSTALLING EXCAL ON YOUR SYSTEM FOR THE FIRST TIME:

  Start the installation program, EXCINST.EXE, then select "Install". 

INSTALLING EXCAL ON YOUR SYSTEM FOR THE FIRST TIME *WITHOUT PROMPTING*:

   EXCINST path helpPath          Where 'path' is where EXCAL.DLL
                                  should be copied, 'helpPath' is where
                                  EXCAL.HLP should be copied.

                                  If 'path' = /USELIBPATH, EXCAL.DLL is
                                  copied to your \OS2\DLL directory and
                                  registered without an explicit path (ie,
                                  LIBPATH is used to find EXCAL.DLL).

   A progress dialog is displayed during installation.

ALSO INCLUDE IN THIS PACKAGE:

  EXCAL.CMD is the REXX equivalent of the installation utility 
  EXCINST.EXE.  It shows how the REXX API can be used to create and 
  modify ExCal objects.  

  Online help is available from any of the ExCal objects (calendar, event,
  time, place).

UPGRADING TO NEW VERSIONS OF EXCAL:

  Start the installation program, EXCINST.EXE, specify the directory
  which contains the prior version of EXCAL.DLL, then select
  "Reinstall".  The DLL will be replaced, but will not take effect until
  the next reboot.

After you have replaced EXCAL.DLL, some unneeded alarm files from the 
prior version must be deleted.  You can:

-- Run the Uninstall of EXCINST to delete the unneeded files of prior 
   versions and then re-run the Install of EXCINST to finish.

-- Or, replace the EXCAL.DLL as outlined above and follow the steps 
   below to remove the unneeded files.

   1. Open an OS/2 Command window.
   2. Change to your desktop directory, e.g.: 
          CD C:\DESKTOP
   3. Unhide the EXCAL*.ALM file(s):
          ATTRIB EXCAL*.ALM -h
   4. Delete the EXCAL*.ALM file(s):
          DEL EXCAL*.ALM
   5. Go to the Desktop and select "Refresh now".
   6. Go to the Calendar Glance view and select "Refresh now" from the
      View menubar pulldown.

   You may want to shutdown and reboot after completing these steps to 
   be certain the updates made by the Calendar during "Refresh now" are
   saved to disk.

NOTE 1: If you are upgrading from ExCal 2.x and do not run the Uninstall
        of EXCINST or don't follow the cleanup steps above, you're
        alarms will not work.  The hidden EXCAL*.ALM files(s) of the
        prior versions must be deleted for ExCal 3.0 alarms to work
        properly.  If you choose to run Uninstall, please verify the
        EXCAL*.ALM files were deleted by EXCINST before continuing.

NOTE 2: If you are upgrading from a version before 2.1d, you should run
        EXCINST to create new objects (address book, templates).  You
        can run EXCINST's Reinstall choice multiple times without
        any loss of data.

OS/2 WARP 3.0 USERS:

The Details view of the Calendar shows the columns below:

  Icon   Title   Object Class   Summary   Time and Place    Priority

The "Time and Place" column is a short version of the "Summary" column.
You can hide the former using the third "View" page of the Calendar's
Settings (this is done for you on 2.x versions of OS/2 by EXCINST.EXE).

Note: The "Object Class" column cannot be removed; this may be a Warp
      bug.
