(Installation Option 1) Email of the distributed product code

Request via email a copy of the product. CPC will send a reply to your mail which will contain the product either as an attachment to the email message. This attachment will be in either ZIP format (a single attachement) or unzipped format (multiple attachments).

If zipped, then use a ZIP program like PKZIP (pkware homepage) or WinZIP to unzip the file into its own directory. (ie. MD c:\vmrsm then UNZIP the files into c:\vmrsm)

---

(Installation Option 2) Upload of distributed code to VM/CMS userid.

Ensure that you BACKUP your old version
 
 
--PC to VM File Transfer method using IND$FILE:
 
             UnZIP contents into your C:\VMRSM directory.
             Use a 3270 file transfer facility that uses IND$FILE to
             Load the contents to your VM/CMS virtual machine A-Disk.

             CTSCPCTX.TXTLIB -->  CTSCPCTX TXTLIB A     (NOCRLF BINARY LRECL 80
             PROPROLL.EXEC   -->  PROPROLL EXEC A       (CRLF ASCII
             GENLMOD.EXEC    -->  GENLMOD EXEC A        (CRLF ASCII

             Execute:     GENLMOD PROPROLL  (creates PROPROLL MODULE A)

(Installation Option 3) Downloading via VM-to-VM FTP method:

  Requirements:
  - You must be on a VM System using a VM TCP/IP connection to the Internet.
  - You will use an ANONYMOUS logon to our WARES virtual machine's 191 disk.
  - The FTP address is 63.109.210.197 
  - Files you will need to transfer using GET are: 
    PROPROLL.EXEC
    GENLMOD.EXEC
    CTSCPCTX.TXTLIB  
  - TXTLIB file transfers must employ VM/FTP command LOCSITE FIX 80
    to insure that the record size is fixed at 80 characters.
  - EXEC files must employ VM/FTP command  LOCSITE VAR to insure variable
    length records.
