2. Installation
======================================================

#   Requirements:

To use this software in a design environment other than Visual Basic, 
make sure that the Visual Basic 6.0 run-time files are present in 
your ..\Windows\System\ directory (you have to find "msvbvm60.dll").
If not, you can get them in almost all magazines' CD-ROM, or on the Web.

#   Install:

The Demo package does not really need an installation. If you get this 
program in a .zip file format, unzip the file and feel free to give it a try.

To run the Visual Basic sample project, simply run the Vb6Sample.vbp. 
In IDE you need the ISHF_Full.tlb type library, which you do not need 
for the compiled product.
To run the Demo software, simply run the Vb6Sample.exe. 

#   Uninstall:

Remove the folder with the Demo package.



3. Release Notes
======================================================


#   Description:

The FolderView control provides functionality identical to the tree pane in
Explorer. It displays a list of folders (and files) and allows browsing of the 
shell's entire namespace. 

Though it exposes and returns many properties and methods similar to that 
of the familiar TreeView control, it provides many other unique features:

- The background of the control can be set to any color or a tiled graphic. The
  graphic may scroll with the contents. The fore color can also be customized. 

- The control can be customized to any appearance, including how it displays 
  folder connecting lines and buttons ("+", "-"), the distance that folders are 
  indented within the control, whether shared folders display associated share
  icons, and checkboxes.

- Implements optional auto refresh mode, where any changes within the 
  shell's namespace (such as renaming, moving or deleting items) are 
  automatically and immediately reflected in the control. 

- Allows control of whether the shell will automatically display error messages
  as a result of invalid folder selection (i.e. selecting a removable drive containing
  no disk or selecting a disconnected network share). 


Please read the help file of the control carefully, before you use the component 
or before you consider asking us for support.


#   Possible Uses:

- In any case you need browsing of the shell's namespace.


#  Unregistered version:

The unregistered version of the FolderView ActiveX control, 
displays an About box each time it is initialized.
