MARRIED FILING STATUS ANALYSIS
Version 3.3
Copyright 1993 by Michael T. Wing, CPA
Program Notes/Installation
All installation examples below assume that your diskette is Drive A:
and your hard disk is Drive C:. Modify accordingly if you are using
different drives (B:, D:, etc.).
PACKING LIST
------------
The following files are included on the program diskette or in a self-
extracting ZIP file MFS3X3.EXE available on CompuServe.
MFS.HLP - Help File
MFS.OVR - Program Overlay File
MFS.WKB - Default Data File
MSHERC.COM - Monochrome/Hercules Graphics Adapter
OCEAN.ICO - The "Official" Ocean Software Icon
README.MFS - Program Notes/Installation
RUN.EXE - Runtime Module
DISKETTE OPERATION
------------------
You may operate MFS directly from the program diskette by entering the
following commands at your DOS prompt:
- Switch to your diskette drive:
A:
- Start program
RUN MFS
(If you are using a monochrome/Hercules monitor, load MSHERC.COM
before starting program.)
HARD DRIVE INSTALLATION
-----------------------
We recommend that you install MFS on your hard drive. Enter the
following commands at your DOS prompt:
- Create an OCEAN subdirectory on your hard drive:
MD OCEAN
- Switch to the OCEAN subdirectory:
CD\OCEAN
- Copy files from your program diskette:
COPY A:*.*
- Start program:
RUN MFS
(If you are using a monochrome/Hercules monitor, load MSHERC.COM
before starting program.)
To start the program thereafter, switch to the OCEAN subdirectory
CD\OCEAN and enter the command line RUN MFS.
WINDOWS INSTALLATION
--------------------
We have successfully operated MFS under Windows 3.1 in full screen
mode. However, we do not guarantee compatibility with Windows or
other multi-tasking environments. If you encounter problems, we
suggest that you run MFS in a standard DOS environment.
To install under Windows (after copying the program files to your hard
drive as described above), select New File from the Program Manager
File Menu and enter the following data in the Program Item Properties
window:
Description: MFS
Command Line: RUN MFS
Working Directory: C:\OCEAN
Shortcut Key: None
Then, click the Change Icon button. Windows will report that an icon
cannot be found. Click OK to move to the Change Icon window and enter
the following:
File Name: C:\OCEAN\OCEAN.ICO
Click the OK button twice, returning you to the Program Properties
window. Click OK to save data and exit back to the Program Manager.
VERSION 3.3
-----------
MFS program version 3.3 includes the following fixes and enhancements:
- A conflict with SHARE.EXE has been solved.
- An "official" Ocean Software Icon has been added.
- A copy of MSHERC.COM is included to provide graphic support for
monochrome/Hercules monitors.
- You may enter override amounts in the Taxpayer column on selected
lines. Refer to context sensitive help for details.
- The first Help screen under the Program Navigation topic now
includes a complete "action key" summary.
The following "bugs" are outstanding and are deemed non-fixable:
- If operated under Windows in a "window", two mouse cursors appear.
We recommend that you operate the program in full screen mode.
- We have received reports of problems when using generic or off-brand
mice. Your mouse must be 100% Microsoft compatible.
