How do I install the software to my handheld device?

1) Download the appropriate compressed (ZIP) file to your desktop PC
    Make sure you download the correct version for your handheld
2) Unzip the compressed file onto your desktop PC
    This will decompress the file into the installation files
3) Connect your handheld to your desktop PC
4) Run the executable (.EXE) file(s) from your desktop PC
    This will install the software to your handheld

Note:- If you have already installed a previous version of the software then make sure you are not running this version on your handheld at the time of installation since then your handheld will not be able to overwrite the software.

Note:- Make sure you download and install the correct version for your handheld. Otherwise when you run the application from your handheld you will get an error message similar to "Can't find APPLICATION or one of its components. Make sure the path and the file names are correct and that all the required libraries are available"

Note:- You can use most decompression programs, such as winzip, to unzip the compressed file. You can download a free evaluation version of winzip from http://www.winzip.com

For further information refer to the README.TXT file found after unzipping the compressed (ZIP) file
