How to download the book to your hard drive

The book has been compressed into a *.zip file called UPHOLDER.ZIP - the file size is only 110KB and it contains the whole of the book and all of the Annexes. It will load in a few seconds or minutes depending on the speed of your modem. You will need to 'unzip' the file before you can use the *.html files that it contains (using Winzip, PKzip, etc.). If you are using IE4 or above, of course, you can download almost anything you want!

If you decide to download the book using our compressed files you will open a familiar Windows dialogue box asking if you want to open this file or save it to disk - choose save, then choose the folder (directory) where you want to store it on your hard disk. You may wish to create a new folder (directory) for this purpose. It must then be unzipped before you try to view the *.html files with your web browser. They can then be read or printed 'off line' using your web browser programme by opening the programme without connecting to the web and choosing 'Open File' (or 'File Open') and selecting the folder containing the unzipped files. This folder will also have a Readme.txt file in it in case you need to refer to these instructions again.
