- About WinCharging
-
- Thank you for trying WinCharging. It's the newest and
- best way to manage your credit cards.
-
- WinCharging can do a lot more than simply monitor credit
- card expenditures. If you use credit cards to earn car
- rebates or to get money back, WinCharging can help you earn
- even more. When you've reached the maximum rebate on one
- card, WinCharging warns you so you can switch to another
- income-producing card. That way your credit cards are
- always working for you.
-
- If you're just trying to come to terms with what you spend
- on your cards, WinCharging helps you figure out where,
- exactly, your money is going. You can categorize your
- records to your heart's content. And generating reports is
- simplicity itself. It even does Tax Summaries.
-
- Another reason to use WinCharging is that while your credit
- cards are safe, you can never be sure about your account
- numbers. With mail theft on the rise (especially of account
- numbers), it's important to be sure that you're paying only
- for what you bought. WinCharging helps you keep track of
- each and every one of your charges.
-
- WinCharging holds a Four-Star rating from Ziff-Davis, the
- parent company of PC Magazine. It was also named runner-up
- in the 1995 Shareware Awards contest. One Ziff-Davis
- reviewer called WinCharging "a sophisticated credit card
- management system ... for detail-oriented people."

- =========================================================
-
- SHAREWARE VERSION
-
- This is the "try before you buy" Version of WinCharging,
- otherwise known as the Trial Version.
-
- It is a full-featured, fully functional program that you can
- test on your computer for three full months. After that
- period you can continue to access your existing records, but
- you will no longer be able to create new ones.
-
- =========================================================
-
- HARDWARE/SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS
-
- WinCharging requires Windows 3.1 or 3.11, 4 MB RAM, 2.2 MB
- of hard disk space, and a 386DX or better. It is Win95
- compatible and runs well in Warp 3.0's full-screen or
- seamless Windows boxes.
-
- WinCharging now runs under all Windows code pages.
-
- =========================================================
-
- INSTALLATION
-
- To ensure a perfect installation, make sure you have all of
- the files listed in CONTENTS.TXT. If any are missing,
- contact your shareware distributor immediately.
-
- If you downloaded WinCharging's ZIP file and expanded it on
- your hard disk, you can either copy the files to a floppy
- to create an installation disk or simply install WinCharging
- from your hard drive (which is considerably faster).
-
- To install, start Windows. Open the File Menu and click
- Run. Put the installation disk in your a: drive and enter
- A:SETUP on Run's command line. If you put the disk in your
- b: drive, enter B:SETUP. If you're installing from a
- directory on your hard drive, enter the full path plus
- SETUP (for example: C:\TEMPDIR\SETUP).
-
- Setup checks to ensure that your system meets certain
- requirements. If all is in order, it displays the default
- directory for WinCharging's files.
-
- You can put WinCharging's files in any directory you wish,
- but as with any other major program, the files should be
- placed in their own directory, and that directory should be
- right off the root directory (e.g., C:\WINCHARG) for
- optimum drive efficiency.
-
- =========================================================
-
- GETTING STARTED
-
- WinCharging comes with a special online Help file called
- MeFirst!. It's easy to read and comes with loads of
- graphics to simplify the setup process. When you start
- WinCharging the first time, it asks you if you would like
- to see MeFirst!. Reply yes.
-
- With both WinCharging and MeFirst! open, you can simply
- <Alt>+<Tab> back and forth, first reading MeFirst! about
- how to do something, then switching back to WinCharging
- to actually do it.
-
- When you no longer need MeFirst! you can delete it by
- selecting a command found on the File Menu.
