SHAREWARE NOTICE!
This is a Shareware Program, which means the author has
placed it for distribution through Shareware Dealers or a
BBS. The Shareware concept of "try before you buy" applies
to this program. If you like and use this program, please
register with the author. If you do not use it then discard
it or give it to a friend. If you purchased this program
on a disk from a Shareware Dealer, you have not purchased
the program itself but paid the dealer a fee for the
copying and distribution of this program. This Shareware
version is a 100% workable program and will produce
invoices, statements and purchase orders.
When you register with the author you will receive the
most current version available without these shareware
notices. Complete Manual, and notice of future updates.
The registered version also has a Report section that
could not be included with this shareware version because
of the size of the program. The Report section keeps a
record of the Date, Invoice Number, Total Taxable Sales
and Total Sales Tax collected. This data can be printed
out for Sales Tax purposes. The registered version will
save Invoices to a Ascii file on disk for later viewing,
printing, or sending to a customer with a computer Fax.
See customizing at the end of this manual.
At the beginning of the program you have a option to print
out a registration form. Thank you!
