= 	Melissa Name Object API for Windows	 =
==================================================

Prerequisite
====================
This sample is intended for use after the installation of Name Object. It requires that 
the Name Object is registered and the Data Files installed. If you did not install the Data Files
to its default directory, you will have to change the Data File Path in the sample code to point it
to the correct directory. The Data Files Directory must contain the following files: mdName.dat and
mdName.cfg.

Demo Mode
===============
Please contact your sales representative to obtain a free 30-day license to use Name Object.  After
30 days, the Object must be purchased before continued usage. Please call 1-800-MELISSA ext. 3 for
more information.

Visual Basic 6/Windows Sample Programs
======================================
The sample programs demonstrate how Visual Basic 6 can be used to communicate
with the mdName API. 


COM Example
===========
The mdNameCOMExample project demonstrates how to use the API's COM interface to
communicate with the API. The mdName.bas file is not needed in this
implementation. However, in your own projects, you will need to add a reference
to the COM object. To do this, go to Project | References check "Melissa Data
mdName 1.0 Type Library".
