I have had a few emails regarding this software not having
all the files or the setup program not working correctly.
In every case I have been able to download and set up the
program without any problem whatsoever.  Just take it slowly
and follow the steps and everything will turn out.  The key
things to watch for are that (a) you have the correct
software for unzipping the file (it is a compressed group
of files actually), and (b) you access the correct file,
after unzipping,  for startup.  All of the problems I have
been asked about have been attributed to installing the wrong
file, some problem with the unzip utility, or (in very few
cases) the user's operating system.  Follow the instructions
and enjoy.  Life is good.  Work wood!

1. Click on link to download.
2. Select a file location on your hard drive.
3. Download.
4. Using windows explorer, find the directory where
   you downloaded the file.
5. Use a program like WinZip to 'unzip' the compressed
   file.  Do this into a new directory if possible so
   you can keep all the parts together.  An evaluation
   copy of WinZip can be downloaded for free from:
   http://www.winzip.com/
6. Find the 'Shpdsgsu.exe' application file and double
   click it.
7. Follow the instructions on the screen as to where to
   install etc.
8. That should do it.  Just go to your startup menu and
   find the 'EasyShop Series' program group and click. Then
   click on  'Shop Designer' to start.

Troubleshooting the Shop Designer
=================================

Here I will include additions sent in by my readers
where they have managed to figure out installation problems.

Feb 2003 - Lynn Grant reports that when using WinZip 8.0,
installation problems may be encountered.  Check the Misc.
tab under the Options menu and make sure that you UNCHECK the
"Enable Desktop/Theme Screen Saver Installer" box.  Then the
program unzips perfectly.
