a) Type "erase unpack1.exe" and press .<br />

b) Type "erase unpack2.exe" and press .]<br />

In your CONFIG.SYS file (if necessary, refer to your DOS documentation),<br />

include entries for "files=20" (or higher) and "buffers=20" (or higher).<br />

MUSE is now installed, and ready for use, on your hard disk. For a list of the<br />

files that are now installed in your MUSE-related subdirectories, please refer to<br />

"APPENDIX A" (page A-1).<br />

Installing MUSE with existing<br />

versions of Xtrieve To install MUSE on a system where you already have Xtrieve 4.01 or newer<br />

installed, you will need to decide whether to utilize the three Xtrieve data<br />

dictionary (.DDF) files set up for your MUSE data files: they are FILE.DDF,<br />

FIELD.DDF and INDEX.DDF, and are provided on your installation disks.<br />

Consider the following in deciding whether to use these .DDF files or not:<br />

If you have created files in Xtrieve (files other than the standard MUSE data<br />

files) AND you choose to use our provided .DDF files, you will need to redefine<br />

your files under Xtrieve's Dictionary command (.DDF files). By making<br />

printouts and screen shots of your old definitions first, you should be able to<br />

easily redefine them. On the other hand, if your custom definitions are extensive<br />

you may prefer to keep them and continue using your old .DDF's. If so, you must<br />

use Xtrieve's Dictionary command to modify the definitions to match the MUSE<br />

data files. We have provided a "structure" file (text files with .STR extensions)<br />

for each of the MUSE data files. Look at these to get the required information<br />

on the data fields: data types, sizes, indexing, etc. Be aware that the "note" data<br />

type for a "remarks" field requires a delimiter: use "H0" (i.e., an H and a zero).<br />
