SUMMARY
=======

When you install Scholastic's The Magic School Bus Explores the Human Body (MSB
Human Body), you do not have an opportunity to specify the folder in which you
want to install the program. This article describes how to move MSB Human Body
to a different location after you install the program.

MORE INFORMATION
================

By default, MSB Human Body is installed in the following location:

  <drive>:\Mskids\Msbhuman

To move MSB Human Body to a different location, use the appropriate method for
your version of Microsoft Windows.

NOTE: When you move the Mskids folder, you may need to modify the program item
properties and configuration files for any other Microsoft Kids programs
installed in the Mskids folder.

Windows 95/98
-------------

1. Move the Mskids folder. For information about how to move a folder in
  Microsoft Windows, see your Windows printed documentation or online Help.

2. Use a text editor such as Notepad to change the following lines in the
  Band.ini file located in the Msbhuman folder

        [init]
        main=!<cdrom>:\msbhuman\ 
        second=!<drive>:\<folder>\mskids\msbhuman\ 
        user=&<drive>:\<folder>\mskids\msbhuman\ 

  where <cdrom> is the letter of the CD-ROM drive, <drive> is the
  letter of the hard disk, and <folder> is the new location of the Mskids
