MONTANA RIVERS INFORMATION SYSTEM 

 Rivers Report 



APPENDIX A (cont.) 



The PATH is probably set by the AUTOEXEC.BAT file found in the root 

 directory of the C drive. It might look similar to this: 



C: 



CD C:\ 



PATH=C:\DOS;C:\BATCH;C:\TOOLS 

 PROMPT $P$G 



Use a text editor or word processor to change the AUTOEXEC.BAT file to read: 



C: 



CDC:\ 



PATH=C:\DOS;\C:\BATCH;C:\TOOLS;D:\MRISUTIL 

 PROMPT $P$G 



If you are using a word processor that adds special codes to a file be sure to save 

 the file as a DOS text or ASCII file. 



The next time you reboot the computer D:\MRISUTIL v^rill be included in the 

 PATH. (See your DOS manual for more information about AUTOEXEC.BAT and 

 PATH). 



Copy the files from the System Utilities diskette to the directory and run 

 SINSTALL. SINSTALL will extract the programs and files from their compressed 

 format and erase the unneeded files.
