Professional Bartender 1.9

 	The Professional Bartender is a complete bartending program to assist both the professional

bartender and the amateur mixer just mixing a few drinks for friends.  The program is easy to use yet

very powerful.

 	The version you currently hold is version 1.9, the shareware pre-release version.  This version is

a fully functional version that you can test for 30 days.  After no more then 30 days, if you find the

program useful you can order the upgraded version 2.0 for only $19.95.  This is $10.00 less then the

suggested retail price.  To order, select Print Order Form from the opening menu to print out the order

form to your default printer.  Please note that this is very abbreviated documentation. Version 2.0 comes

with a complete printed manual and online help.

 	When run the program will display the main screen.  The full list of drinks will be displayed in the

list box (200+ drinks for ver. 1.9, 1000+ drinks for ver. 2.0).  Clicking the mouse button on any drink will

display the drink.  Multiple drinks can be highlited by holding down the <CTRL> key while selecting a

drink.  This allows you to print only the drinks in the drink box that you want to.
