To complete the dialog box
Text to Insert
Enter the line to add to Config.sys. If the line refers to a file, use a path. Example:
%SYS%\Application.dll. %SYS% refers to the active system folder.
Line Number
Enter the line number at which the new line should be inserted. Enter 0 (zero) to
append the command to the end of the file. The Search for Existing Text area in this
dialog box overrides the line number specified here. The line number applies only
when the text is not found or when you do not specify any text.
Search for Text
Enter the text to search for here. The installation scans Config.sys looking for a line
that begins with, ends with, or contains the text, depending on the setting of the
Match Criteria field. The line is inserted at the first found match.

Enter text to insert at the beginning of the line that is found. Insert "REM " (with the
trailing space but without the quotation marks) to comment out the line, which lets

command in place but inactive. If this is the case, set Insert Action to insert before
the existing line so that a subsequent installation finds and edits the active
command, not the commented line.
Insert Action
Select where to insert the new line in relation to the found line.
Match Criteria

Ignore White Space
Mark this to ignore spaces and tab characters.

Do not use this action to modify the display driver (display=xxx) or any other non-
device entry. Instead, use the Edit INI action.

Device Name
Enter the full command line for the device (example: device=vshare.386). The
referenced files need a path unless they are in the System directory.
