MCalc v.05 Beta User's Manual

Introduction:

MCalc is a Mortgage Calculator for Palm. It's really simple to use. The following provides some simple guidelines for it's use. Please understand that this is Beta software and meant for testing purposes only. It comes with no license as of yet, and no warranty at all. You use this application at your own risk.

MCalc was developed and compiled using the Palm 3.5 SDK. It has been tested only on PalmOS versions 3.3, but should theoretically run on older version of the PalmOS. You should be ok with 3.0 and later, but any thing less than 3.0 is probably pushing it. Try it out anyway ;-). It runs fine on my Palm V, which runs PalmOS 3.3.

I'd love to hear your comments on the useability of the tool as it's only my second Palm application.

MCalc Usage:

To use, simply enter the following information:

Finally, click the Calculate button and your estimated monthly payments will be calculated. Click the Clear button before performing another calculation. That's all there is to it. No need to run out and buy a mortgage calculator before buying a house.

Example

Distribution:

Feel free to forward this application to a friend as long as the entire zip file, as you received it, is included. I just want the recipients to have the documentation so they understand that this is Beta software, and not a very polished application yet.

Contact Me:

Please let me know how this application works for you, and what PalmOS version you ran it on. I would also love to hear any improvements you would like made to it to make it a more useful tool.
