When installing DT Max, the following options are presented to you:

  • Language selection

    This is the language of installation only. The language chosen here will not prevent you from running DT Max in the other language.

    Currently, the language options are English (United States) and French (Canadian).

  • Licence agreement

    DT Max will only run if you agree to the terms of the licence agreement.

  • Destination folder

    You can choose the default destination folder (C:\Program Files\Dt Max) or any other folder you prefer.

  • Setup type

    The option Typical determines the setup specifications for you, whereas Custom enables you to customize them per your preferences.

  • Components

    The following components are available for installation:

    • T1
      You can install the personal tax program for 1996 onwards. Please do so only if you have a valid T1 licence. If you do not, these features will only run in demonstration mode.

    • T2
      When installed, the corporate tax program covers year 1994 onwards. Please only install it if you have a valid T2 licence. If you do not, the corporate tax program will only run in demonstration mode.

    • T3
      If you are a licenced T3 user, you can install the trust tax program for 2003 onwards.

    • Knowledge base
      The knowledge base, which includes all the DT Max help documentation, is available in both languages. It should be installed in at least one of the two. Note that if installed in only one language, DT Max help will not be available in the other.

    • Demo database
      Up to three demo databases can be installed: one for the personal tax program (T1), one for the corporate tax program (T2) and one for the trust tax program (T3).

  • Desktop shortcut

    You can choose to have the install program place DT Max on your Windows desktop.

  • Installing IE6

    DT Max uses the HTMLHelp system for all its online help and knowledge base information.

    In order for this help to appear as it should, Microsoft's Internet Explorer 4.01 or greater must be installed on your computer. You can install it from Microsoft's Web site or you can install a customized version from the DT Max CD.

    For more information see HTMLHelp and Microsoft's Internet Explorer.
