Making Clipbook Work
|
|
|
|
Do this:
|
|
|
|
1. Copy all of the files into the %_NTROOT%system32
|
|
directory.
|
|
|
|
2. Log on as an administrator.
|
|
|
|
3. Run NINSTALL.EXE. It should give you about four "things
|
|
are OK" message boxes.
|
|
|
|
4. Create a common program group named "Startup" if there
|
|
isn't already one.
|
|
|
|
5. Create an icon in the "Startup" group with the command
|
|
line NDDEAGNT.EXE .
|
|
|
|
This process installs NetDDE and places the Clipbook files
|
|
where they need to be.
|
|
|
|
Next,
|
|
|
|
1. Run Clipbook once and immediately exit.
|
|
|
|
2. Run Regedit.
|
|
|
|
3. Under the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER, "Software\Description\
|
|
Microsoft\ClipBook Viewer", create a new value named
|
|
"EnableShare." This value has type REG_DWORD, and should
|
|
be given a non-zero value.
|
|
|
|
This enables the current user to share Clipbook pages
|
|
on the network.
|
|
|
|
Known Problems
|
|
|
|
If you exit Clipbook with pages marked as "shared," log off,
|
|
log back on again, and run Clipbook, the pages will still be
|
|
marked as shared, but they won't be available to other
|
|
computers.
|
|
|
|
The toolbar buttons don't activate properly the first
|
|
time you select an item in the list of Clipbook pages.
|
|
To activate them, select an item and hit the <Del> key.
|
|
|
|
DON'T GO INTO "PREVIEW" OR "FULL PAGE" VIEW, YOU WILL
|
|
CRASH THE MACHINE!!! The two rightmost tools on the toolbar
|
|
do this, as do the selections "Previews" and "Full Page"
|
|
on the View menu. Don't, don't, DON'T.
|
|
|
|
NetDDE transfers data rather slowly at the moment, and
|
|
Clipbook times out of a transaction if it isn't done in
|
|
thirty seconds. Avoid transferring large data items- big
|
|
bitmaps are the main thing to avoid. Try not to transfer
|
|
more than about 40-50k on a page.
