Save the setup file in a temporary directory and then execute the "HEC-SSP_22_Setup.exe" file to run the setup program.
Follow the setup instructions on the screen.
The install creates a program group called HEC. This program group will be listed under the Programs menu, which is under the Start menu. The HEC-SSP program icon will be contained within the HEC program group, within the HEC-SSP subdirectory. The user can request that a shortcut icon for HEC-SSP be created on the desktop. If the 32-bit application is installed in the default directory, the HEC-SSP executable can be found in the C:\Program Files (x86)\HEC\HEC-SSP\2.1 directory with the name "HEC-SSP.EXE". If the 64-bit application is installed in the default directory, the HEC-SSP executable can be found in the C:\Program Files\HEC\HEC-SSP\2.1 directory with the name "HEC-SSP.EXE".
The HEC-SSP User's Manual and example data sets are also installed with the software. The User's Manual can be viewed by selecting User's Manual from the Help menu. To view the User's Manual, Adobe Acrobat Reader must be installed. This viewer can be obtained for free from the Adobe web page.
A zip file containing the example data sets described in Appendix B and Appendix C have been installed in the "…\Examples" folder within the program directory. The example data sets can be installed by selecting the Install Example Data option from the Help menu. After selecting the appropriate menu option, a window will open to choose a location to install the example data sets. The program will create two subdirectories within your chosen folder called SSP_Examples and Bulletin_17C_Examples. Project files with an ".ssp" file extension will be contained in both subdirectories. The test data sets can be loaded by using the Open Study option from the File menu and then use the file chooser to select either project file.
