RE: TSR on a Network

The current version of EndNote Plus, 1.1, will create temporary files in the
drive and drectory specified by the TEMP environment variable.  If the TEMP
variable is set to a valid drive and directory on the local hard disk, the
TSR might be used  on a network in the manner described.

However, we strongly discourage use of the TSR in network installations.
The TSR is a very limited task-switcher, coded specifically for single-user
DOS systems.  Network-specific incompatibilities with the TSR might cause
problems not only on the user's own computer, but across the entire network.

In network installations, we recommend using a true task-switcher such as
the DOS Shell or Microsoft Windows.  Transfer of text from EndNote Plus to
other applications can be accomplished by:

-Installing the TSR before starting the task-switching shell;
-Using the shell's functions for switching between programs;
-Pasting text from the TSR's internal clipboard using the SHIFT-INSERT
keyboard combination.
