CodeWarrior Pro 5 Windows/NT Installation

(Java only for CS courses)

0) Completely uninstall any previous version of CodeWarrior

it would probably be a good idea to delete them.

1) Install CodeWarrior.

Insert the CW Pro 5 Windows 95/NT Tools CD and Launch CodeWarrior Setup.

4) Download the CUCS stationery from one of the following sites

There should be a file/link with a name like CW5PCExtras.exe
(this is actually for Pro 3, and works for Pro 3, Pro 4, and Pro 5)

Double-click on the icon to run it, and agree to Unzip the files.
This creates a new folder containing the stationery and installation instructions.
Follow the instructions, but pay attention to ONLY the sections "Installation" and "Testing"
