  1. Login the computer using the ITS account, which has rights as a local Windows Administrator-equivalent.
  2. Make sure you have drive W: mapped.  (The usual MapNetworkDrives.bat script will do this.)
  3. On Windows XP, right-click the Start button and choose Explore All Users.  (If you can't, choose Explore instead.)
    On Windows 7, choose the Start logo, then right-click All Programs and choose Open. (This will be user-specific.)
  4. A Windows Explorer window will open with the Start Menu folder selected.  Open the Programs folder in this Start Menu folder.
  5. If it does not already exist, make a new folder here titled "PG Calc", and open it.
  6. From within the PG Calc folder, create a new shortcut with these properties:
    1. Location: enter or browse to W:\Windows\PGM6\pgmw32.exe
    2. For the name, enter PGM 6.4
  7. Test the shortcut by running it; the ITS account has rights, as a member of the PGMUsers_gs group.

New: Because it uses a Windows 3.1-style .HLP help file, on Windows 7, a Microsoft update may have to be installed for the PGM help file to open. Get the Microsoft update here, for 32-bit Windows 7:
\\swarchive.ads.carleton.edu\swarchive\OriginalMedia\Windows7\Packages\WinHlp32-Windows6.1-KB917607-x86.msuThis is available in the KBOX user portal as the script titled, "Windows 7 Help .HLP Update".
