Installing
==========
This program DOES NOT need to be in the GTA folder. Put it in any folder you want.

Copy these files to your "C:\windows\system32\" folder:

 1. MSFLXGRD.OCX
 2. mscomctl.ocx
 3. COMDLG32.OCX
 4. COMCTL32.OCX
 5. scrrun.dll

Click "Yes" if asked by Windows to replace existing files. These are the most up to date versions of these files available (Visual Basic 6.0 Service Pack 6).

If you don't have a "C:\windows\system32\" folder, copy them to your "C:\windows\system\" folder.

Now you must register the files:

1. Open the "Start" menu and select "Run".
2. Type "regsvr32" but don't press anything else.
3. Drag the "MSFLXGRD.OCX" file from the "system32" folder and drop it on the "Run" window.
4. It will now say something like "regsvr32 C:\windows\system32\MSFLXGRD.OCX".
5. Press "OK" and a second later it should say the file was registered successfully.
6. Do the same for these other files:
   a. mscomctl.ocx
   b. COMDLG32.OCX
   c. COMCTL32.OCX
   d. scrrun.dll
7. Now try using CFG Studio.

If the program still won't work, check the GTA Forums topic for a solution:

Features
========

Scrolling
---------
* Mousewheel scrolling is supported.
* Horizontal scrolling from tiltwheels is supported if your drivers are up to date.
* You can use "Shift+Mousewheel" to scroll horizontally if you don't have a special horizontal scroller.


Drag-drop support
-----------------
Drag a file from a folder onto the title bar or menu bar.  The cursor will show a plus sign (+) when you can drop the file to open it.


Opening "Unknown" File Formats
------------------------------
* When a file format is not recognised the program enters "Edition: Unknown" mode.
* Columns 0-25 are lettered A-Z.  Columns 26-701 are lettered AA-ZZ.  Columns 702 and higher are numbered.
* The program does not know how to save unknown file formats so it shows a warning.  Back up "Unknown" files before saving over them.


Command-line Support
--------------------
* Manually associate ".cfg" files with this program to make them open with it as default.
* Create a shortcut to the program and add the complete file path at the end of the "target" box.
* Use the "Start Menu > Run" dialogue to run CFG Studio with the path to a file.
* No other parameters have an effect.  Only the first valid file path is used.
