The READEM.EXE in the folder FGR13PAK is a 32 bit DOS program. It can
be run within the DOS window of WINDOWS 95/98/NT.  If the program is run
without installing ANSI.SYS the screen display will include a number of
strange characters.  On WIN95/98 operating systems, ANSI.SYS is typically
located in the WINDOWS\COMMAND folder (use START|FIND to locate it on
your system) and should be included in the CONFIG.SYS file in the root 
of drive C. For example, the following statement would be added to 
CONFIG.SYS using either an ANSI editor or WORDPAD

   device=C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\ANSI.SYS

Note it is necessary to reboot the system for this change to take place.

On WINDOWS NT machines, ANSI.SYS is typically located in the folder 
WINNT\SYSTEM32 and should be installed in the CONFIG.NT file also located in 
WINNT\SYSTEM32. For example, the following statement would be added to 
CONFIG.NT using WORDPAD

  device=%SystemRoot%\system32\ansi.sys

It should not be necessary to reboot the NT machine as CONFIG.NT is invoked 
upon entering the DOS window (close and reenter if the editing was under DOS).

To read electronic files of dose and risk coefficients either:

1. Copy the contents of the CD folder FGR13PAK into a suitable folder
   on your hard disk.  In the DOS window enter READEM to display the dose
   or risk coefficients.  For further details consult the file FGR13PAK.TXT.

or

2. Copy only the files READEM.EXE and FGR13PAK.INI from the CD folder 
   FGR13PAK to a suitable folder on your hard drive.  Edit the file 
   FGR13PAK.INI so that the full path to the data files is specified. For 
   example, if the CD drive is drive E: then the content of FGR13PAK.INI
   would be

    'index.ndx'   ,  'E:\FGR13PAK\FGR13CD.NDX',  173
    'ingestsf.dfs',  'E:\FGR13PAK\FGR13ING.GDB', 354
    'inhalesf.dfs',  'E:\FGR13PAK\FGR13INH.HDB', 363
    'submrsin.dfs',  'E:\FGR13PAK\F12TIII1.EXT', 250
    'grsurf00.dfs',  'E:\FGR13PAK\F12TIII3.EXT', 250
    'grvolinf.dfs',  'E:\FGR13PAK\F12TIII7.EXT', 250
    'external.rsk',  'E:\FGR13PAK\FGR13EXT.RBS', 118
    'ingest.rsk'  ,  'E:\FGR13PAK\FGR13ING.RBS', 123
    'inhale.rsk'  ,  'E:\FGR13PAK\FGR13INH.RBS', 124
    'chemdata.dat',  'E:\FGR13PAK\CHEMDATA.DAT', 0

   This setup will require that the CD be present in the CD-drive when 
   READEM is invoked.

or

3. The files can be accessed with WORDPAD or a ANSI editor. Note the data on
   files is available through a WINDOWS Viewer program which permits using
   the cut and paste operations.

Finally, you are welcome to write your own software to retrieve the dose and risk 
coefficients. The FORTRAN source code for READEM and FGR13PAK are provided to guide your 
efforts.
