Banner View Readme file v1.0 ------------------------------ Use: To use this program, first, ensure you have the VB files (sigh). Then you just open the EXE. The folder it is run in does not have any bearing on the program. When you initially open it, you will be prompted to select a folder to target for a banner search. The program will then search the selected folder for banners and when done searching, all the banners that were found will be displayed. Viewing: Viewing a file is easy, and after you selected a folder with at least one banner, you will be viewing the banners at normal size. (All of the banners you see in the List View control of the main window are actual size). To get the enhanced view, simply select the banner you would like to view, and the zoomed in view will appear in the Preview window, if open. NOTE: If you double click on a banner, it will open with your favorite bitmap editing program. (You will have to refresh to view the changes if you make any). TIP: Try selecting different views, as some give better banner clarity in the list. Renaming: Renaming a banner is similar to the way Windows Explorer renames a file. Select the file to rename and either click it once and wait a second or select Rename from the File menu. If the program cannot rename a banner, you will be prompted as to why it cannot. Deleting: To delete a banner, select it and either press the Del key or select Delete from the File menu. You will then be prompted as to whether you really want to delete the banner. Future Ideas: * Drag and Drop for moving banners to other folders * Allow editing of banners within the program * Zip file searching (c) 2001 by Ave-iator
