If your browser (i.e. Netscape) does not automatically convert
the chemkey80.hqx file into the chemkey.sea stuffit file you
will need to use binhex 4.0 to convert the hqx (hexidecimal file)
into binary format to generate a new file called chemkey.sea
It is necessary to dearchive the chemkey.sea file so as to create
a folder called Update 75,000 to 80,000. To do this, simply click
on chemkey.sea
Make sure that the CKUpdate.fm file contained within the newly created folder and the Chemkey.fp3 file are in the same directory. Open up your 75,000 version of the Chemkey database and under the "Script" menu, click on "Update the database" button. The 5000 references contained within the CKUpdate.fm file will be read into your current Chemkey.fp3 file. When this is done, exit the program and the next time you open it you will be updated to 80,000 refs and ready to go.
For the IBM PC:
download the compressed, binary chemkey80.zip
to your PC
Using your version of pkunzip, unzip the chemkey80.zipfile
Make sure that the CKUpdate.fm file and the Chemkey.fp3 file are in the same directory. Open up your 75,000 version of the Chemkey database and under the "Script" menu, click on "Update the database" button. The 5000 references contained within the CKUpdate.fm file will be read into your current Chemkey.fp3 file. Of course, make sure the Chemkey.fp3 file is NOT write protected by unclicking the "read only" box under "Properties" of the file.When this is done, exit the program and the next time you open it you will be updated to 80,000 refs and ready to go.
