USE OF THIS PROGRAM BY OTHER THAN REGISTERED USERS OF TRANSCAN v5+ IS
A VIOLATION OF THE LAW!
THIS PATCH IS FOR TRANSCAN v5+.
* The patch process will ONLY operate on v5.06, v5.07, v5.08,
v5.09, or v5.10!! If you have an earlier release you must first
obtain and perform an update to v5.06. You can download TSCN506.ZIP
from our BBS at 913-232-5586.
=============================================================================
The update program consists of two parts, the executable patch program
(PATCH.EXE) and the patch data file (PATCH.RTP). The patch data files
contain all the information needed to make changes in the old executable
files and to track the application of patches, even after multiple
updates have been performed.
To perform the update follow these simple instructions:
1. Copy PATCH.EXE and PATCH.RTP to your TranScan directory.
2. Check to make sure that the directory contains TS5.EXE, TS5.OVR,
and TS5.HLP. If any of these files are missing the patch will
not be complete.
3. Change to the TranScan directory and type:
PATCH
and press <ENTER>.
4. A successful patch process results in a screen indicating that files
were patched:
