Installing the Calculator

You have chosen to download this application to your hard drive. The downloaded file will be a zipped file which will appear in a folder you have created or selected. To optimize function for this tool, consider the following:


1. It is suggested that you unzip these files to a newly created folder. All the files must be in the same folder otherwise hyperlinks will not function.


2. Run the application from the file titled coagcalc.html. Documentation and help can be accessed from the calculator.


3. Create an icon for your desktop if you wish by right-clicking on coagcalc.html and select Send to > Desktop (create shortcut). In Windows 7, right click and select Create Shortcut. The new shortcut created in your folder can be dragged to the desktop. Double clicking on this icon will then open the calculator application. You can rename the shortcut or change the icon if you wish with another right click on the new desktop icon.


4. This is a javascript based application, so javascript must be enabled in your browser. So far it is only tested in Firefox, Google Chrome and Internet Explorer.
