The ArkPro.EXE file will now unpack. When ready, click on the x sign button in the upper right corner.

Macintosh
In order to unpack the underlined ArkPro.sit file below you need the unpacking program Stuffit Expander on your Macintosh. Stuffit Expander is a freeware that is bundled with most "WEB packages". So chances are big you already have this program on your computer.
If you have the decoding program Binhex, you can download it from many WEB sites, here is one:
http://www2.passagen.se/filarkiv-mac/packning/packning.html
After the file named StuffItExpander.hqx has been transferred from the WEB site, use the Binhex application to decode it (Command in Binhex: Upload/ Application).
If you don't have Stuffit Expander or Binhex go to this WEB page:
http://www.aladdinsys.com/support/faqs/mexp2.html

in order to get Stuffit Expander .
If that does not work try consulting your company´s data dept. or ask a friend having a "WEB package" or
send an email to DobyTec for assistance.

After making sure you have Stuffit Expander, you can go on downloading ArkPro.sit.
If you use Netscape, hold down the Alt. key as you click on the underlined ArkPro.sit file below. The file will then be downloaded to your hard disk in the destination folder you select.
In Internet Explorer, just click on ArkPro.sit, then Explorer will ask you where to save the download file.

Download Archive Pro for Macintosh, including complete manual (click on following underlined filename): ArkPro.sit
File size: 3,5 MEG
Download time: about 15 minutes (28.8 modem)

ArkPro.sit is now being transferred to your hard disk

to the folder you specified. A thermometer symbol will show the transfer progress.
When ready, there are two alternatives depending on how your Macintosh is configured:
1. The computer will automatically unpack the received file and in that process create a new folder named ArkPro.
2. No automatic unpacking is taking place.

In the latter case you have to start your Stuffit Expander program manually. Activate the File/Expand command and choose the ArkPro.sit file for expansion. Next choose "Expand into" and select a folder (or the Desktop) as destination for the expanded files.

The ArkPro.sit file will expand and create a new folder on your hard disk named ArkPro. Move this folder to a place of your choice e.g. the folder where you keep other applications

Open the ArkPro folder.

You will find a file named ArkPro-FMP SDK in the ArkPro folder.

Create an alias for the ArkPro-FMP SDK file.

Move the alias to the Desktop.

Rename the alias on the desktop to Archive Pro.

Doubleclicking on the Archive Pro alias will start the Archive Pro program.

If you the first time you start the program get a message: " The date and time formats associated with ArkPro.fp3 are different from....Do you wish to use systems settings for data entry?" then click the YES button.
The program will from then on be adapted to the settings of your computer.

Instruction/Manual

You have two alternatives to read and print the manual for Archive Pro.

Alternative two may be chosen if you want to get an idea about the program before you decide to download it. This file is only about 1/2 MB and will take only a few minutes to download.
You will need to have the free Acrobat Reader program for alternative two. If you don't already have Acrobat Reader you can download it from the following URL:
http://www.adobe.com/prodindex/acrobat/readstep.html
Download manual (Acrobat Reader pdf file): Earkpm.pdf



How to open the manual that is included in the Archive Pro program (alternative 1 above)
Before you open the manual with your WEB browser program, check that you don't have your computer configured to automatically dial up Internet when opening TCP/IP applications (like a WEB browser). On a Macintosh, locate your PPP settings under Control panels to temporarily disable automatic dialing. In Windows 95 check the settings in Netscape or Internet Explorer to see if automatic dialing can be disabled. After printing the manual you can activate this setting again. If automatic dialing is activated when reading or printing the manual your modem may repeatedly try to connect (annoying!).
The Archive Pro application has many built in help functions making the use of an external manual almost unnecessary during ordinary use. It is however a good idea to make a "one time only" printout of the complete program manual before you start using the program. The manual is a HTML document that you can read and print from your WEB browser program (Netscape/Explorer).
The manual file is named "
Earkpm.htm". You will find this file in the Manual folder, a sub folder under the ArkPro folder.
Opening/printing the manual
Start your WEB browser program (Netscape/Explorer). If the browser tries to find your ordinary Internet start page, click on "Stop" to terminate. Now choose the File/Open command. The browser program will display a dialogue window allowing you to choose the file you want to open. Navigate until you are in the Manual folder (sub folder of the ArkPro folder). Double click on the "Earkpm.htm" file name.
The manual will now display on screen. Clicking on a subject line will bring you to the corresponding subject section.
Use the File/Print menu to print the manual.
