   TITLE     : How to Obtain Microsoft Support Files from Online Services
This package provides developers with the components needed to use Microsoft's CAB technology within 16-bit applications. This is a supplement to the Cabinet Software Development Kit from the Microsoft Site Builder Workshop at http://www.microsoft.com/workshop/prog/cab/.

The code in this release supports 16-bit applications on Intel (R) x86 (tm) platforms. This code is compiled for large-model real-mode or Windows applications and features an API compatible with the corresponding 32-bit libraries.

Note that the TESTFCI and TESTFDI samples have not been adapted to compile as 16-bit applications.

Refer to the file Redist.txt for the license agreement for the Cabinet Software Development Kit including redistribution rights.

The following files have the same names as their 32-bit counterparts, so they should be copied to a different directory.
