eXpand Download Instructions:
All of the eXpand applications are self-extracting exe files. THEY ARE LARGE FILES. These applications must carry all the baggage necessary to set themselves up on a variety of operating systems. These applications only work with Microsoft Windows 95, 98, ME, NT, and W2K.
  • Choose the appropriate application from the eXpand catalog by clicking the program link.
  • Download the application to your hard drive.
  • When complete, close the web page and double click on the downloaded file.
  • Follow the on-screen instructions to install the application.
Important Installation Information:
Prop Solutions, the creator of these applications, is a Microsoft developer. We only distribute the latest Windows components received directly from Microsoft. In some cases, your Windows system files may be out of date and our program will need to replace them with the latest versions.  You will be notified of this and given the opportunity to update your system at installation time, or cancel the update. It is also possible for you to have newer versions of certain files than those contained in the application.  Again, you will be asked to replace or skip any existing files that are newer than those contained in the application.
Never replace a newer file!
Version History Information:
Version 2.2 is now ready for download. We added function key support in main edit screen and 'save as' OPSoftware eForm. We also corrected eForm pricing issue and location of eOrder database. The laundry list editor was updated to allow for more items on a list. Previously, each item was sequenced in two's (2,4,6,etc.) effectively cutting the number of items you could place on a laundry list in half. Now the list is numbered by one's allowing for 963 items on a laundry list (999 minus the maximum number of header records of 36). The laundry list editor will now check for the maximum number of items before saving to your Backend System and display a message if the list contains more than the maximum number of items allowed.
