Thank you for trying FileMan.  This program is shareware.  It was 
originally written to make copying and moving files across different 
directories easier to do.  Several enhancements have been made since 
which now include several renaming capabilities and special components 
for management of graphics files.  Whether trying to manage data files 
or graphics files there is no more need to work with one directory at 
a time or needing to open more than one explorer window.  Since then many 
more functions have been added which now include indexing and thumbnailing 
of picture files. As with any program there may be some bugs, so check for 
future updates.  To install, see below for details.

FileMan 2.10 consists of:

FileMan - file management utility

*******************************
Requires:

Windows 95

Visual Basic 5.0 Runtime files.
VB5 Runtime Files includes the necessary DLLs and support files to run 
programs written in Microsoft Visual Basic 5.0. They include the 
following files: 

Asycfilt.dll	*required for this program
Comcat.dll	*
Ctl3d32.dll	*
Ctl3d.dll
Ctl3d95.dll
Ctl3dnt.dll
Msvbvm50.dll	*
Oleaut32.dll	*
Olepro32.dll	*
Comdlg32.ocx	*
Stdole2.tlb. 	*

To see if they are on your system open the Windows Explorer application, 
and go to your "System" directory.  This is normally "c:\Windows\System" 
if you have Windows 95, or "c:\WinNT\System32" if you're running Windows NT.

Now look for the file "msvbvm50.dll". If you find it, you have the runtime files.

{these files can usually be downloaded off the internet, sometimes as one zipped file,  
 at sites such as http://www.simtel.net/simtel.net/win95/dll.html}
