1st you have to unzip it, then open the folder with all the files in it, then click on the executable file. Do you have the file extensions turned on so you can see which file is the .EXE?

How do you turn on file extensions. My download says cellab2 compressed folder. I don't see any exe in it

Open 'my computer', then VIEW--FOLDER OPTIONS--VIEW. Under 'files and folders' uncheck 'hide file extensions for known file types'. (that's on my 98, should be pretty much the same for ME)

I went to MY COMPUTER>view>tools>view then clicked on 'show hidden files and folders. I get about 216 files but none of them has exe. Jam said first unzip it. Maybe thats the problem. How do I do that?

"I get about 216 files but none of them has exe" Did you uncheck 'hide file extensions for known file types' as suggested by DAVEINCAPS? "Jam said first unzip it.....How do I do that?" You've got ot be kidding? Then how do you know there's 216 files in the zipped file? http://www.filehippo.com/search?q=zip

It's not 'show hidden files and folders'. It's 'hide file extensions for known file types' and that needs to be unchecked.

I unchecked 'hide file extensions for known file types'.I guess it unzips automatically. I do see an RC.exe file . When I double click it I can extract all the files. The result is a whole lot of files but most of them take me to a window that says 'open with.....' I don't know what to open those files with . Whichever one I try comes up with nothing. The files that do show something show very little. I guess I'm still not doing something right. I opened up the read me and I read it. It says things that lead me to believe I still don't have the lab functioning. When I click on CELLAB.exe all I get is a green and black spotted picture with the option of changing the pictures dimensions. I'm ready to give up on it. What should I be getting?

"all I get is a green and black spotted picture" Exactly. Are you sure you're even capable of learning how to use such a program? http://www.cs.sjsu.edu/faculty/ruck...

Thanks for showing me that web sight. I see what you mean when you ask if I can use this software. What about all those files that give me the ' open with'.....window? What do i put in for 'description for files of this type' and what program do I use to open with?

Generally those are files used by the main EXE program. You probably don't open them separately. Unless the readme file says differently just run the main program and let it do its thing.

I downloaded it & played around with it for a few minutes. I suppose if you read the manual & figure out all the steps, you could probably get it to do whatever it is you want it to do but it seems pretty complicated. What DO you want to do with it?

Personally, I wanted to change the green and black spotted picture to anything else; and did. Next, I wanted to exit the program; and did. This for a school assignment? Skip

"Personally, I wanted to change the green and black spotted picture to anything else; and did. Next, I wanted to exit the program; and did." LOL. I basically did the same thing.
