Steps to Install
tApCalc Finance
Step 1 - Unzip the
files
Unzip the
downloaded file using Winzip. If you are able to read this file then you have
probably already unzipped the file. You should see the following files in this
directory.
Setup.exe
Setup.ini
tApCalcFinance.Arm 1100(4k)
v3.00.CAB
tApCalcFinance-PPC-Readme.htm
(Note: If you purchased SH3

Step 2 – Run
Installation
On Windows PC
- Run the Setup.exe. It will copy
the necessary files to the Pocket PC sync folder so that the program can be
automatically installed on your device.
- If your device is already on
the cradle, the files will be automatically downloaded to the device and you
will see the installation activities on the screen. Follow the steps outlined
in “On the Device” section below to complete installation.
- If your device is not already
on the cradle, the files will be copied next time you put the device on the
sync cradle. You will need to follow the steps outlined on “On the Device”
step to complete installation after the files are copied.
On the Device
- On your device, you will see
installation activities and it may stop and ask you for permission to
overwrite some existing files. You should normally answer “No” to all such
questions. These questions are asked because the installation tries to install
Visual Basic components on to your device. Some prior versions of Pocket PC
did not come these Visual Basic components factory installed. That is why we
package these Visual Basic components with the installation package. If you
already have these components, you are asked the if you want to overwrite
those. Since there is no need for you to overwrite those components you should
answer “No”.
- Now the program is ready for
use. Go to your start menu and select Programs
at the bottom of the list. You will find tApCalcFinance program in
the programs directory. Tap on it to start tApCalcFinance. Optionally, you can
add this to your start menu by following the user guide supplied with your
device.
