--------------------------------
WHAT'S NEW
--------------------------------

- Support for Windows 98 was added.

- Problems with a "C++ run-time error" at startup have been fixed.

- Performance has been improved and memory usage has been reduced.

- Users on a shared server can now be deleted.

- Adding and removing users to/from a group on a shared server works
  properly now.  In build 413, these changes did not propagate to
  client machines.

- Syncing undated To-dos in the Puma import/export works now.

- Improved mail merge.

- Conference rooms: new Calendar preference to disable double-booking
  of conference rooms.

- Local category assignment to remote read-only Events is allowed.

- The display of categories in Event and Contact details has changed.
  The primary is listed first, and any remote categories appear in
  parentheses.  In the Assign Contacts list, only the appropriate
  categories will be listed (Event or Contact categories).

- Time zones function properly.

- Security:

  a. User Contacts.  When created (or when an existing Contact is
  selected as the Contact for a user), the user Contact assigns
  permissions as: Everyone, read; Admin, read/modify; Owner,
  read/modify.    No one has delete permission.  Any other
  permissions already assigned will remain so.

  b. Copying objects.  When the copying user is the owner of the
  original object, the new object has the same security as the
  original object.  Previously, the new object would take on the
  default security settings for the copying user.

  c. Incorrect security.  Some existing objects were assigned
  incorrect security settings on Planner startup.  This has
  been fixed.

  d. Multiple selection.  When multiple objects with the same
  security settings are selected in the Security Settings dialog,
  security on all the selected objects can be changed at once.

- Improved Backup. The Analyze feature will now detect/fix objects
  that reference deleted users and groups. Analyze will detect/fix
  user Contacts with invalid security settings.

- Invitations are not sent for newly created meetings that end in the past.

- The server has been enhanced to gracefully handle unknown commands.
  If a server of a later version of Planner connects to a 4.01 server,
  the 4.01 server will not crash when it receives a command that it
  can't process.

- The display of privacy options on the User Detail dialog box is now
  more consistent.

- Type-ahead buffering in the To-do List has been improved.

- Mailing label formatting has been improved.

- When creating a new meeting by typing in a calendar view, a time
  conflict warning dialog is not displayed until after pressing
  the enter key.

- Able to create remote users with non-default security settings.

- Invitations to deleted meetings and meetings in the past are now
  deleted when the server is started.

- Able to properly delete categories.


--------------------------------
OVERVIEW
--------------------------------

Eudora Planner for Windows Version 4.01 is a Calendar and Address
Book management tool that provides flexibility, portability and
simple data sharing in a package that is easy to learn and quick
to use.


--------------------------------
MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS
--------------------------------

To use Eudora Planner for Windows Version 4.01, you must have the
following:

- A 486 processor or higher (Pentium 90 or higher recommended)
- Microsoft Windows 95, 98 or NT 4.0 (Service Pack 3)
- 16 MB of available memory (32 MB recommended)
- 18 MB of available hard disk space
- VGA or higher-resolution video adapter (SVGA 256-color and
  800x600 or higher resolution recommended)
- Microsoft Mouse or compatible pointing device

The following are required to use Eudora Planner's advanced
features:

- Windows-compatible network using TCP/IP protocol required
  for workgroup functionality
- Windows MAPI-compliant e-mail package
- Windows-compatible modem for automatic dialing


--------------------------------
INSTALLATION NOTES
--------------------------------

Note Concerning the Microsoft Comctl32.dll File
-----------------------------------------------
In order to take full advantage of Eudora Planner you must have a
current version of Comctl32.dll.  Setup will automatically detect
and warn you if your version is incompatible.

To upgrade Comctl32.dll, download Com32upd.exe from Microsoft's
ftp site:

ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/softlib/mslfiles/Com32upd.exe

Note Concerning Oleaut32.dll
-----------------------------------------------
At the end of setup, if you receive an error in regards to
Oleaut32.dll you will not be able to:
- Synchronize with the PalmPilot.
- Import/Export from/to Microsoft Outlook.
- Import/Export from/to generic ASCII text.

To correct this problem, first upgrade to Windows 95 OSR2, or
install one of the following:
- Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.0 or later
- Microsoft Office 97 or later

After you have upgraded your system, you must run the ServeOLE.exe
program in the Eudora Planner directory.

If you are installing Eudora Planner 4.01 over a previous version
of Eudora Planner, it is recommended that you run the backup utility
first to preserve a backup copy of your current database.  The
install process will automatically convert your database.  In the
event that your database is corrupted and has errors updating, you
will need to restore from an earlier backup.

If you have set up the Eudora Planner Server as a service on Windows NT,
be sure to disable that service before performing this upgrade.  Failure
to do so will cause the new installation to fail.


--------------------------------
REGISTRATION
--------------------------------

When you first run Eudora Planner it will ask you to register.
Enter your serial number and all the required data on the
registration screen.  If you do not have a serial number please
contact our Customer Service department at 800-2-EUDORA (800-
238-3672) to register your copy of Eudora Planner.  If you
do not enter your serial number, Eudora Planner will run as a
Trial Version

If you choose "submit" your registration information will be
sent via the Internet and an activation code will be e-mailed
to the  address provided in your registration information.  If
you are unable to use the submit option, check your connection
to your Internet Service Provider.

If you select to "print" your registration and fax it in, an
activation code will be faxed to the number provided in your
registration information.

Entering the activation code completes your registration process
and disables the registration reminder screen.  Eudora Planner will
be marked as a "Trial Version" until the registration process is
completed.

If you have any problems with your activation code, please contact
customer service at 800-2-EUDORA (800-238-3672).

NOTE: If you are connecting a client copy of Eudora Planner to a
Group Planner Server, you need not register the client.  It will
be registered through connecting with a registered Group Planner
Server.


--------------------------------
IMPORTING FROM NOW UP-TO-DATE
--------------------------------

You can easily import your data from Now Up-to-Date 1.5.1 for
Windows or 3.6.5 for Macintosh into Eudora Planner.  Simply
export your Up-to-Date database to Macintosh-style text files,
then use the import templates in Eudora Planner.

--------------------------------
SYNCHRONIZING WITH PALMPILOT
--------------------------------

Eudora Planner installs its own customized version of Puma
Technology's Intellisync.  The PalmPilot Desktop 2.0 software
must be installed before installing Eudora Planner so that
PalmPilot-specific information can be setup on your machine.
If you have installed Planner prior to installing the Pilot
Desktop, then you will need to reinstall Planner to take
advantage of the Intellisync features.

For more information about Eudora Planner and Intellisync see our
technical support web pages.

--------------------------------
LIMITATIONS & KNOWN PROBLEMS
--------------------------------

- Attaching graphics to Events is currently limited to bitmap
  (BMP) files only.

- On Windows NT, Eudora Planner setup will not proceed with the
  installation of certain system DLLs if the user does not have
  administrative rights and the file system in use is NTFS.  We
  recommend that Windows NT 4.0 users be granted administrative
  rights during installation.

- Holiday Events will show up on the PalmPilot with a "{2}" at
  the end of the title after performing a synchronize.

- Banners and Sticky Note Events do not get synchronized to the
  PalmPilot.

- Contacts associated with the Quick List category on the
  PalmPilot will automatically be associated with the Quick Contact
  category in Eudora Planner after performing a synchronize.

- Automatic Web Publishing is not implemented in this release.
  Setting the publishing interval will have no effect.  Please
  use manual publishing instead.

- Only local data will synchronize, import or export.  To
  import, export, or synchronize public data you must perform
  the operation at the Group Planner server machine.
