-
- MFTC: Mutual Fund Tax Calculator, 16-bit edition, has been tested by RCCO
- Research to work with Windows 95.
-
-
-
-
- Installation
- -------------
- To install MFTC: Mutual Fund Tax Calculator, simply copy all files in
- this package to a directory/folder of your choosing; we suggest creating
- a new directory named \MFTC (or, in Windows 95, a sub-folder named MFTC ).
- The MFTC package should be placed in a directory/folder of its own (rather
- than being commingled with other files or programs in the same
- directory/folder).
-
- You may then launch the program from File Manager or Explorer by double-
- clicking on MFTC.EXE. You may also create a new program item/shortcut
- for MFTC in any desired program group or folder, specifying the pathname
- to MFTC.EXE as the command line, as well as indicating the same directory
- as the working directory (required in Windows 3.1). The program's icon is
- contained within MFTC.EXE and may be specified as the displayed icon. You
- may then, in Windows 3.1, double-click on the program's icon to launch
- MFTC; in Windows 95, simply select the Start menu item for MFTC, or launch
- from the appropriate folder.
-
- In Windows 95, to add this program to your Start Menu:
- 1. Click on Start.
- 2. Move the mouse pointer up to Settings.
- 3. Click on Taskbar...
- 4. Select the 'Start Menu Programs' tab.
- 5. Click on Add.
- 6. Click on Browse, then navigate to the application's executable
- file, MFTC.EXE, by first double-clicking to the folder or
- sub-folder in which it exists. Select MFTC.EXE. Click on Open.
- 7. Now the Command line shows the path to the MFTC
- executable file. Click on Next.
- 8. Choose a folder in which the shortcut to the program will
- appear (or select New Folder if one is desired).
- 9. Click on Next.
- 10. At the prompt 'Select a name for the shortcut,' type in
- "MFTC."
- 11. Click on Finish. This returns you to the Taskbar Properties
- window. Click on OK.
-
-
- The online documentation may be read after launching MFTC by selecting the
- <Documentation> button or Documentation menu item on the main program
- screen, or by pressing <F1>. Pressing the <Documentation> button brings up
- the Contents page of the MFTC Help; from the Contents page, you may click
- on an item to go directly to a topic, or click the >> (Next) button on the
- Windows help screen to browse through the topics in documentation sequence.
- Pressing <F1> while the focus is on other components usually provides
- context-sensitive help.
-
- You may also open the included MFTC.WRI file in Windows 3.1 Write or
- Windows 95 WordPad (or any Windows word processor that can read the Write
- file format, such as Microsoft Word) and print (recommended) or view a
- formatted version of the documentation from that program.
-
-
- Thank you for evaluating MFTC: Mutual Fund Tax Calculator.

- v2.0 Release Notes
- -------------------
- There are several new features implemented in v2.0 of MFTC: Record Number
- Indicator in both Form & Table Views, Edit/Non-Edit Cell indicator in
- Table View, Detail View window available in Table View, enhanced data
- entry error messaging, system information functions, expanded menu items,
- MRU (most recently used) fund table list on the File Menu, significant
- documentation revisions -- to name several.
-
- We have been most pleased at the excellent registration response for MFTC;
- it has, in a very short period of time, become one of our most popular and
- often-registered programs. The response from investors has been very
- encouraging. We have also been pleasantly surprised by the receipt of
- orders from investment advisors and financial planners for multiple copies
- of MFTC to give away or resell to their clients.
-
- The suggestions and comments from many users, including both novice and
- experienced investors, have been extensive, thoughtful, and always
- well-considered by RCCO Research; several suggestions from registered
- users are implemented within the new version.
-
- It is solely because of the interest and registration support resulting
- from the initial versions (1.x) that we are happy to provide the
- development of new features and revision in this release. We can
- only hope that each new user of an unregistered copy will allow enough
- evaluation time to adequately appreciate that which MFTC can offer in
- the areas of tax-planning and portfolio management.
-
- Our thanks go to the many registered users of MFTC who have encouraged,
- either directly or indirectly, that this new version be produced.
-
-
- v2.1 Notes
- -----------
- The primary change in this version has been the addition of context-

- A companion product, MFTC32: Mutual Fund Tax Calculator for 32-bit Windows
- is available from RCCO Research in a 32-bit edition. It is similar to, but
- not exactly like, the present work entitled MFTC: Mutual Fund Tax
- Calculator, 16-bit edition. The two editions have different registration
- fees, due to the program sizes and number of disks involved for each. The
- respective version numbers may also differ and should not be considered
- relative to the other edition.
