Working With MapCreate
Starting MapCreate
If you installed the Compact version of MapCreate, make sure the CD-ROM
for the area you intend to use is in the CD-ROM drive. Otherwise, you can
insert any MapCreate CD. (Remember, even if you installed the Full version,
a disc must be in the drive each time you start the program. This is one of
MapCreate's copy protection features.)
NOTES:
For earlier MapCreate owners: If you have both an earlier version of
MapCreate and MapCreate 6.3 installed on your computer and run the
programs from the CD, be sure you have the correct version of the CD
in your drive when working with the two programs. Running MapCre-
ate 6.0 with the version 6.3 CD or vice versa will generate an error
message when you try to build a map. The data discs are not compati-
ble with each version of the program. If you made full custom installa-
tions of both programs to your hard drive, this error message will not
appear because each version has its own unique directory on your
hard drive.
For Compact or Custom installations of version 6.3: the high detail
map data is organized into multiple regions recorded on different CDs.
The manual addendum shipped with your MapCreate package con-
tains a map showing which region is on which CD. Refer to the map to
help you decide what disc to use. If you are using a Compact installa-
tion and you want to see medium detail world maps, use the disc 1
CD.
You can start MapCreate by clicking the
START button and choosing your
version of
MAPCREATE from the menu, or you can double-click the MapCre-
ate icon in the MapCreate program group.
Start MapCreate by clicking the Windows START button and then choosing
