- Mortgage Designer v2.00 for Windows provides the following over v1.40:
-
- - Added a command/icon bar for easy execution of common commands.
- - Added a status line complete with date and time.
- - Now you can use F1 access from all points in Mortgage Designer
- (even message boxes).
- - Mortgage Designer limits have been greatly extended on principal
- (from $500,000,000.00 to $999,999,999.99), interest rate (from
- 25.000% to 50.00%), and term (from 30 years to 50 years). Extensive
- checks are now performed during math calculations to inform you if
- your mortgage is too complex to calculate.
- - Greatly expanded the error checking to validate values in as many
- places as possible. The "What if?", refinance, variable rate mortgage,
- and PITI areas now validate all numbers when you exit each of the
- areas. Each of these areas have a built-in memory to retain your
- last values between uses.

- Mortgage Designer.

- - Expanded the about Mortgage Designer box to provide free memory,
- operating mode, and co-processor status information.

- rate increments.
