I INTRODUCTION
---------------
Football Pool Keeper (FPK) Processes your office Football Pool with style.
FPK is the most versatile Football Pool processing program available. It
is fully documented, easy to understand, easy to use, simple to setup, can
be tailored, can be expanded and runs smooth and fast. It handles all
standard Pool requirements and many exciting options. It has personalized
pick sheets (many styles), confidence point system (optional), multiple
tie breakers, multiple winners (optional), preliminary result processing,
easy result reruns, personalized result reports, numerous weekly reports
to choose from and YTD player statistics reports.
It can also handle any league or sport at any level, processes multiple
Pools, has two excellent Demo's and can use any printer including
laserjets. The Data base stores Pool options, entire season schedules,
team names, players with YTD statistics, player picks, result reports and
other data. FPK comes with a NFL Schedule or you can enter any schedule
type of your own. You can also obtain all College and Pro Football
Schedules on disk from the author.
FPK is not free software, but rather, user-supported "Shareware". That
is, if you find it useful, you must register. Please see the Registration
Form for more details. This non-registered version is fully functional
and is not restricted in any way.
To print this file on your printer type the following at your hard drive
prompt.

II FPK INSTALLATION
--------------------
You received FPK in a single self extracting ZIP file. By executing the
file you should uncompress all files into a Hard Drive Directory (\FPK is
recommended).
Page 1
If you distribute FPK to friends, associates, or upload it to a computer
bulletin board system (BBS), if possible please distribute the original
single ZIP file rather than the individual files for FPK.
Note: If you re-install the FPK, you should make a backup copy of your
Pool #1 Data Base File (WKCU01.DAT) before re-installing because
it will be overwritten with the Pool Data Base defaults shipped
with the FPK.
III FPK Files
--------------
These are the files that appear in the Hard Drive Directory Immediately

IV STARTING FPK DEMO'S
-----------------------
After installing FPK, boot up your computer as usual until your Hard Drive
prompt appears (i.e. C>). FPK is compatible with most Terminate and Stay
Resident Programs (TSR's). If you use them and have difficulties try FPK
without TSR's. Please see manual for Demo walk thru and for procedures to
setup your Pool. After starting FPK in Demo Mode #1 you SHOULD (for
proper pagination) print the user manual and other documents from the Pool
Setup Menu.

Type: FPK DEMO2 <enter> (Demo Mode #2)
