2.  INSTALLING QUATTRO
----------------------
  Note that the Quattro manuals make references to files on four
  disks (there are only two 3 1/2" distribution disks).  Whenever
  a reference is made to a file on either the System or Resource
  disks (disks 1 and 2, respectively), the file will be found on
  the System/Resource Disk--and a file on either the Help or
  Add-Ins disks (disks 3 and 4, respectively) will be included on
  the Help/Add-Ins disk.  (See section 7, "Files on the Disks,"
  for a complete file listing of each disk.)

  To set up Quattro for hard disk use, simply copy all disks to
  the Quattro directory.  Type Q to load Quattro.

    IF YOU HAVE A DUAL FLOPPY SYSTEM:

      a.  Put the System/Resource Disk in Drive A.
      b.  Put the Help/Add-Ins or your data Disk in Drive B.
      c.  From the A> prompt type Q <Enter>.

      If you want to automatically load the Lotus-compatible menu
      tree with Quattro:

      a.  Put the System/Resource Disk in Drive A.
      b.  Put the Help/Add-Ins or your data Disk in Drive B.
      c.  From the A> prompt type Q <Enter>.
      d.  Press / to bring up the main Quattro menu.  Select
          Defaults, Startup, Menu Tree, Main Menu and select
          123.RSC.  Select Update.
      e.  Quit from Quattro and re-load Quattro with the 123
          compatible menu tree.

  Although Quattro will autodetect video screens and display
  properly, there are some monochrome systems which emulate a
  color graphics adapter (such as the Toshiba 3100 or the
  Panasonic Sr. Partner) that Quattro can't detect.
    
  If you have a monochrome monitor, and don't see the menu
  choices after you load Quattro and press "/", use the QM
  command to load Quattro instead of Q.


3.  NEW FEATURES AND PRODUCT CHANGES IN QUATTRO 1.01
----------------------------------------------------
  If you are updating from Quattro 1.0, you need to make sure
  to replace all the Quattro program files with the files on
  the distribution disks.  Quattro .DEF files created with 1.0
  will not be compatible with this version.  Please contact
  our Technical Support Department for a conversion utility
  which will update older .DEF files.

  This release of Quattro has been enhanced in the following
  areas:

  *   There is a new search feature available whenever Quattro 
      displays a choice list.  If you press F2 after bringing up a list
      of choices (using, for example, /File Retrieve or Save, F3, or
      Alt-F3), an asterisk appears at the top of the list, and you
      can search for matches on successive key letters.  Try it on
      function choices:  press Alt-F3 to bring up the list, then
      press F2, then type @D.  You will be positioned at the
      function @DATE, the first function that begins with the
      characters @D.  Now press S, and you'll jump to @DSTD; pressing
      U subsequently takes you to @DSUM, and so on.

  *   A new text-printing destination choice, Spool File, retains
      control characters (or PostScript headers) when you send
      print output to a file.  This allows you to save a file for
      later printing from DOS with no loss of formatting
      characteristics.  This option is available under /Print
      Destination in the Quattro menus and under /Print in the
      123-compatible menus.

  *   PostScript printing is now supported internally, rather than
      by the QPS.QAI Add-In.  See options under /Default Hardware
      Text Printer Is PostScript in the Quattro menus, and under
      /Worksheet Global Printer Use PostScript in the 123-compatible
      menus.  General PostScript printing rules follow:
      -----------------------------------------------------------
      PostScript printers are oriented to a full-page object.
   
      - Only 8-1/2 x 11-inch paper is supported.

      - Only the Courier font family is supported.

      - Three typestyles are supported:
         - Normal
         - Bold
         - Italic

      - PointSize and TypeStyle are located in three possible places:

         1.  On the /Default Hardware Text Printer Is PostScript menu
             (Quattro menus)
             On the /Install Hardware Text Printer Is PostScript menu
             (123-compatible menus)

         2.  In the setup string set up with /Print Page Layout Setup
             String

         3.  In embedded setup strings within the print range

      - The options for setup strings are:

         \Bold
         \Normal
         \Italic
         \PSxx   --where "xx" specifies the PointSize in the
                   range "06" to "40."  You must specify the
                   leading zero on PointSize 6, 7, 8, 9.

        You may combine options:

                   "\Bold\PS23", "\Italic\PS09", and so on

      - Quattro IGNORES the Page Length as set in the Margins &
        Length menu when you use a PostScript printer.  Headers are
        always at the top of the page, Footers at the bottom. 

      - The TypeStyle and PointSize for Headers and Footers are
        set as hardware defaults (#1 above).  They are NOT
        affected by changes in PointSize and TypeStyle via setup
        strings (#2 and #3 above).

      - Top and Bottom margins, specified as a number of lines in
        the Margins & Length menu, are translated into points
        (distance) by using the default PointSize (#1 above).

      - BreakPages = NO is not supported on PostScript printers.
        The printing is always done as if BreakPages = YES.

      - If the text printer is a PostScript printer and the
        destination is Spool File, Quattro creates an EPS file.
        Note:  You cannot import EPS files created in Quattro to
        other applications; you can only use them to print
        directly to a PostScript device.

      - The Align operation (on the Adjust Printer menu) does not
        control paper location for a non-PostScript printer.
        With a NON-PostScript printer, the Align operation does
        two things:

         1. Resets page numbers back to one.
         2. Causes the print implementation to assume that the
            current location of the paper in the printer is the
            top-of-form (normally near the page perforation for
            fan-fold paper).

        On PostScript printers, the ONLY effect the Align operation
        has is to reset page numbers to one (#1 immediately above).

      - With PostScript printers, you can use the command /Print
        Adjust Printer Reset Page, which does the following:

         1. Resets page numbers back to one.
         2. Prints the current page.

        This differs from the Form Feed operation in that a
        bottom footer does not print on the page.
        ---------------------------------------------------------

  * The name of the Search/Replace menu choice Replace String
    (in the 123-compatible menus) has been changed to New String,
    for key-letter support.

  * There is no limit to the number of data points available for
    printing graphs.  There is a limit of 8,192 points per series
    for displaying graphs.

  * There is a new "Lotus compatibility" macro mode, Fast Macros,
    which mimics the recalculation behavior of 1-2-3 during
    macro execution.  It can be found under /Default Startup
    Compatibility Options in the Quattro menus, or under /Install
    Startup Compatibility Options in the 123-compatible menus.
    If you choose this item, a "yes/no" prompt appears:  if you choose
    "yes," Quattro selects the "fast," or non-compatible, mode, and
    execution speed increases markedly.  If you choose "no," macro
    commands that normally cause recalculation and screen refreshing
    in Lotus will always force recalculation in Quattro as well.

      The specific commands affected are:

         Any cursor commands - {left}, {up}, and so on

         The {FOR} command - the counter variable will change
         onscreen during execution with Fast Macros set to "no"

         Any command that modifies cell contents - {CONTENTS},
         {LET}, and so on; with Fast Macros set to "no," any cells
         you modify will reflect new values onscreen during execution.


  * If your CGA screen snows while you move the cursor around your
    spreadsheet, and choosing /Default Hardware Screen Screen Snows
    doesn't seem to help, the screen driver called XTCGA.DRV on the
    Help/Add-ins Disk should help.  To use it, load Quattro, choose the
    menu sequence /Default Hardware Screen Use Special Driver, and
    choose Yes.  Then choose Driver Name from the same menu, and press
    <Enter> when the choice box for XTCGA appears.  Press <Esc> twice
    to get to the Default submenu, and press U for Update.  Finally,
    press <Esc> to get to the main menu, then Q to leave Quattro.
    The next time you load Quattro, it will use the driver, and
    the snowing should be gone.  (If it has not, see section 1,
    "Help," above.)

  * There are several new makes and models of printers supported
    for graphics printing:

      Alps - 4 models
      Citizen - 5 models
      IBM Proprinter - 24 pin
      Kyocera F-1000A (also supports F-2010/3010)
      Mannesmann Tally - 6 models
      Okidata Laserline
      Olivetti PG 108
      Star Micronics - 3 model areas
      Tandy - 3 models
      Xerox - 3 models

    To see the specific models and resolutions supported, use the
    graphics printer selection options under /Graph Print Printers.

    Hewlett-Packard ThinkJet owners should use the PaintJet
    selection for graph printing.  DeskJet owners should use the
    LaserJet II selection.

  * An optional feature has been added to the file-retrieving
    process.  If you want to be prompted before retrieving a file
    when you've made changes to the current work file, do the
    following:

      - Load and run Menu Builder:  /Macro Load - choose MENUBLDR.QAI
        (123-compatible menus:  /Add-In Load - choose MENUBLDR.QAI).
      - /Macro Run - choose Menu Builder.
      - Choose Modify the Menus.
      - Move the highlight to File, then press <Right arrow>.
      - Move the highlight to Retrieve and press <Enter>.
      - Move to Specific Action (at the top of the screen) and
        press <Enter>.
      - Press <End> to go to the bottom of the list.
      - Press <Enter> on the RetrieveConfirm selection.
      - Press <Esc> 3 times until you come to the Menu Builder
        main menu, choose Save Current Menu, and press
        <Enter> to overwrite the current menu tree.
      - Leave Quattro.

      You will now receive a "Lose your changes?" prompt before
      retrieving a file when you would otherwise lose any changes you
      made to the current file.

  * If you have printing problems involving setup strings, note
    the following:  This version of Quattro sends a default reset
    string every time you print text.  That string is initially
    set to \027\064, which is the string that initializes Epson-
    family printers.  If your printer is not Epson-compatible, you
    should set the reset string to null (\000), or whatever
    string your machine uses.  The menu sequence to change the
    reset string is

        /Default Hardware Text Printer Reset, or
        /Worksheet Global Default Printer Default Reset
         (123-compatible menus)

  * The What-If Table input cells no longer copy their display
    format to the table.

  * File Extracting no longer causes values to accompany formulas
    to the extracted spreadsheet.  If a formula refers to blank
    cells in the new spreadsheet, for instance, it will calculate
    based on values of zero or null for those cells, rather than
    showing the value held in the source spreadsheet.

  * @DSUM/VAR/AVG/COUNT do not fully support formula criteria.
    Even though the correct value will be reflected on the first
    entry of the formula, changed supporting values will not
    necessarily be reflected in the database function results,
    especially when absolute references are used.  To insure
    correct recalculation, always use criteria tables with these
    functions.

  * Because we've made some modifications to recalculation from
    Version 1.0 to Version 1.01, you may need to resave files
    created in an earlier revision of Quattro in this version.  If
    you changed the recalculation order in Quattro 1.0, this may
    prevent normal recalculation on spreadsheets saved after that
    change, even if you change back to the default (natural)
    afterward. 
    
    If you have a spreadsheet from a prior version of Quattro
    that you suspect is employing an order other than natural (and
    shouldn't be), load the file, change the order to columnwise,
    then back to natural, then resave the file.  This procedure
    only applies to files created in Version 1.0 which don't
    seem to be calculating correctly; this version will preserve
    the recalculation order in all cases.

  * You should avoid using formulas with spaces on either side of
    the operator--for example, (a1 + a2)--to insure portability to
    other releases of Quattro and other products.

  * A new message, "Memory full--Save as WKQ," indicates that
    you have insufficient memory to save your file in a "non-
    native" format.  When you receive the message, either reduce
    the size of your file to save it with the intended extension,
    or save it with a .WKQ extension.

5.  CORRECTIONS TO THE USER'S GUIDE
-----------------------------------
  Pg 20
  -----
  The second and third entries of Fig. 1.9 should be "Left
  Heading" and "Top Heading."

  Pg 95
  -----
  In the example in "Using Named Blocks," the text accompanying
  the example formula should be changed from
      
      "To enter a block name into formula ... you can display a
      Block Names list if the cursor is on C, @, or B." 
  
  to 
      
      "You can display a Block Names list at any point in the
       entry of a formula."

  Pg 180
  ------
  When you import comma and quote delimited files, all text must
  be surrounded with quotes.  The example on page 180 should look
  like:

      "Sam Jones", "Publications", 38000
      "Barb Rogers", "Sales", 55000
      "Manuel Xinon", "Marketing", 34000

  Pg 184, 185
  -----------
  The last sentence on page 184 and the first sentence on page 185
  should be deleted.

      "However, you can scroll the spreadsheet downward without leaving
       the format line.  The cursor remains in the format line
       as you scroll, and the format line stays fixed on the
       screen like a frozen title."

  Pg 198
  ------
  Please delete the note regarding printing without page breaks.
  Quattro will ignore hard page breaks if Break Pages = No.

  Pg 308
  ------
  The last three lines should read:

      "...repeat the previous Query operation by pressing
      the QUERY key (F7)."

  Pg 392
  ------
  Step 6 of Adding Macros or Add-Ins to a Menu should read:

  Quattro will always exit the current menu after the command is
  executed no matter what option is selected for "What to do after
  item is pressed."


6.  CORRECTIONS TO THE REFERENCE GUIDE
--------------------------------------
  Pg 324
  ------
  The following error message is missing from Appendix E.

      "The Resource file is missing."  This message means that
      Quattro cannot find its menu file, QUATTRO.RSC, or another
      user-specified menu file.
