      How to use ContrPanelApp.

1)Save all files from ControlPanelApp.zip in special folder-it will become the source for all subsequent applications.

2)Inside Delphi open the ContrPan.dpr (while opening under Delphi < version4 -ignore all invalid properties) and save it and ALSO! MainForm unit in some folder. On this step you can change the name of project in order to reflect the name of future Control Panel Applet.

3)Set the icon for frmMain - it will appear in Control Panel and frmMain.Caption will be under the icon.

4)Do not modify the code in library and the name of frmMain ,unless you control the process.

5)Compile the project -it will appear in the same folder where is the project file (.dpr) and with the same name but with the .cpl extension.

6)To make the applet work you must copy a *.cpl file into system (under Windows95) or system32 ( under WindowsNT) directory. Control Panel will automatically load all applets.

7)If you wish to use additional forms - do not forget to create them (in handler of frmMain.OnCreate event for example) and free them (in handler of frmMain.OnDestroy event)before showing.
