Instructions on installing C-Plan (version 3.4) First, install the BDE (Borland Database Engine). Then install C-Plan. C-Plan needs ArcView3.X GIS for the map module to work. It will work without the ArcView GIS present, but there is no map display. If you are using ArcView, you may need to install cplan.avx into "C:\ESRI\AV_GIS30\ARCVIEW\EXT32\", the default install path for ArcView extensions. Using C-Plan with Marxan To get C-Plan and Marxan to interact properly, you need to install marxan.exe and inedit.exe into "c:\marxan".
