0404 - Summary/Objective
0405 -
040501 - Follow up ref SDS 14 0000, ref SDS 12 0000.
040502 -
040503 - Kathleen upgraded her computer yesterday. ref SDS 14 7524
040504 -
040505 - Today, I assembled the program code to install a current version of
040506 - SDS on her computer so she can use the Internet for communication
040507 - instead of conventional email.  It is uploaded to the web.
040508 -
040509 - Sent ref DIT 1 with link to this record.
040510 -
040511 - Provided information on speakers and a circuit board, ref DIT 1 2520,
040512 - answering Kath's question yesterday. ref SDS 14 2775
040513 -
040514 - She has been using Eurdora.
040515 -
040516 - I want her to use Netscape.  I have been using Netscape for email and
040517 - find that it has excellent features for the Internet environment we
040518 - have built.
040519 -
040520 - She can transfer her address book, so it does not have to be entered
040521 - from scratch.
040522 -
040523 - She will need to install ws_ftp.exe on her compter.  I will send this
040524 - program after she gets SDS up and running.
040525 -
040526 - I am sending her the past 4 months of my SDS records,
040527 -
040528 - We will install these on her computer under her USER ID. so she has
040529 - some records to begin working with right away, some including
040530 - correspondence we have had.  This will provide some familiar stuff to
040531 - use as a template for starting to use the program again.
040532 -
040533 -
040534 - General Plan
040535 -
040536 - Create a directory c: sd 10 to download SDS updated code to your
040537 - computer from the Internet.
040538 -
040539 - Download updated SDS code to the c: sd 10 directory.
040540 -
040541 -      This will take 30 minutes or so, depending upon how fast your
040542 -      modem is and how good the telephone line is to your Internet
040543 -      Service Provider.  The length of the download will be a local
040544 -      call, so it will not incur long distance charges.
040545 -
040546 - The Dowloaded files will be what are called zip files.
040547 -
040548 - Run install
040549 -
040550 -      It will delete old SDS code so there is plenty of room for the
040551 -      new stuff.  It will then unzip the downloaded files to create new
040552 -      code.
040553 -
040554 - Create SDS icons for running SDS, ans set the path
040555 -
040556 -      These steps are a little tricky, so call me, and we can do these
040557 -      together.
040558 -
040559 - Kathleen's User ID seems to have been 10000
040560 -
040561 -      We will verify this, then set up SDS for that User ID, so she
040562 -      has access to her old records, and the recent ones I am
040563 -      providing to jump start the effort.
040564 -
040565 - Install ws_ftp so she can upload files to the Internet.
040566 -
040567 -      In a week or so, after she works with SDS a bit, we will work
040568 -      through a couple of transfers so she gets the idea.
