	OBJECT OF THE GAME

	  The object of this game is to remove numbers (buttons) from  the
	  board and increase the score using the dice rolls available.	If
	  one board is cleared, the game clears to a new board (except the
	  score, which will remain). If you are out of dice rolls the game
	  is over.


	HOW TO PLAY

	  Installation:

	       To install the game, copy the file DICE.EXE to your windows
	       directory (Insert disk in drive A: and type
		    COPY A:\DICE.EXE C:\WINDOWS\DICE.EXE
	       and substitute the C:\WINDOWS part with your windows direc-
	       tory).  Start windows and from the  program manager  select
	       the box with Windows Applications (Click once in that box).
	       Select File from the program manager menu and then New.	In
	       the box make the Program Item active and click OK. When you
	       are prompted for the program name, type DICE.EXE and for  a
	       directory enter your windows directory. Select OK to return
	       all the way to the program manager.  To start the game, se-
	       lect the Dollar Bill icon (click twice). The game uses  the
	       mouse or the keyboard to play (Press number or first letter
	       of an option).

	  Rolls:

	       This number will start with 4 and will be reset to 4 if the
	       board is reset. If both dice show the same value,  the num-
	       ber will be increased by 2 to a maximum of 9.  If you can't
	       remove any of the numbered buttons, use this button to roll
	       the dice again. This will deduct 1 from the number of rolls
	       and the game is over if you have no more rolls left. If you
	       can remove any numbered buttons,  the rolls  number will be
	       added to your score and the dice will  be rolled (no  point
	       deduction on the rolls number).

	  About:

	       This option will display the  copyright	screen along  with
	       registration information.  Remember to win cash you must be
	       a registered user.

	  New:

	       This option will reset the score to zero, the rolls to four
	       and will roll the dice on a brand new board (just like  you
	       start for the first time).  Use this option at any time you
	       get 'stuck'.

	  Exit:

		Selecting Exit will end the game and return to the Windows
		program manager. No high score or other settings are saved
		when you leave the game.


	  Number Buttons:

		When the game starts, the buttons  1  through 9 are shown.
		The object of the game is to clear this number buttons for
		a score. You can remove the buttons by adding both dice to
		one number (example: dice one shows 4 and dice two shows 3
		will add up to 7).  Using this number,	you can remove one
		or two buttons shown by pressing  a valid  button.  In our
		sample, we could remove the 7 by pressing (or clicking) on
		the 7 button. Or we could remove the  1  and  6  button by
		pressing either the 1 or 6 (the other button is  automati-
		cally removed). If shown, we could also remove the 2 and 5
		buttons or the 3 and 4 button  combination.  If one or two
		buttons are removed, the score will increase by the number
		of rolls and the dice will roll again.	If all buttons are
		removed from the board,  the board will reset the rolls to
		4 and will display all number buttons again.  Continue the
		above until you can't remove any buttons. If this happens,
		use the roll option to roll the dice again (which will use
		one of the rolls).  If you have zero rolls left and  can't
		remove any buttons, the game is over.


	ERROR MESSAGES

	  If the game is already running and you try to load it again,	an
	  error message is displayed since  only one copy  of the game	is
	  allowed at any given time. Press Enter to clear the message.

	  If you try to roll the dice without having rolls left,  the game
	  will remind you that the game is over. Press Enter to clear  the
	  message and select new to start a new game or select exit to end
	  the game.

	  If the total of the  dice  does not match  the button (or one of
	  the buttons of a button combination), the message displayed will
	  remind you of any mathematical problems you might have.  'Enter'
	  will remove the message allowing you	to select an  other button
	  or a button combination. To stop at this time select exit or, if
	  no combination can be removed and you have at least one roll	on
	  the board, select the roll option to roll the dice again.
