Use of CD 
  The State Forest Service (SFS) has prepared CD with the information on the beginning of 2003.

 There are two options in using the CD:

- to have an overview of the data, use any of the Internet browsers (for example, MS Internet Explorer);

- to analyze the data, use MS Excel.

 On inserting the CD-ROM, the internet browser is activated automatically. In case of a failure the browser may be activated manually by CD:\index.html.

 If your computer has no internet browser, you can have access to the data files in the Excel form CD:\en\xls\*.* as well as to the descriptions of these files in the directory CD: \en\txt\*.*.

 - The menu "About CD" explains the use of the CD.

- The menu "Form Description" gives the denomination of each form, including a short description of the form under the icon of the Excel file. When you click on the icon, the browser activates the Excel data file containig a summary for the forms for the whole country.

 This is for the third time that SFS has prepared the statistical information in a CD form. References and suggestions how to improve the data presentation would be highly appreciated. Address your references to: cd@vmd.gov.lv.

 SFS hopes this information will be useful to get an understanding of the situation with forest resources both on the national and community level.

 With thanks for an interest in the forest resources of Latvia,

the State Forest Service.
