  2. Execute (by double-clicking) the file Vfp3sbs.exe to extract
     Vfp3sfix.exe and Unzip.bat.

  3a. If you installed the Visual FoxPro Step by Step practice files in the
      default directory C:\LITWARE, then Execute (by double-clicking) the
      file Unzip.bat. This automatically runs the following command:

         Vfp3sfix.exe -d -o c:\litware\

  3b. If you did not install the practice files in the default directory,
      run the following command where <Drive:\Path> is your practice file
      path:

         Vfp3sfix.exe -d -o <Drive:\Path>\

  4. Open and print the C:\LITWARE\Correx.txt file that was installed by
     Step three. Correx.txt contains corrections to the book text. Make
     some brief notes in your text where corrections are indicated by the
     Correx.txt file. Close the correction file after printing and/or
     reviewing the contents.

  5. (Optional) Delete (or move to a floppy disk) the following files from
     your download directory:

        Readme.txt
        Vfp3sfix.exe
        Vfp3sbs.exe
