It is fast, efficient, and maintains accurate records for personal or small business checking, NOW, and money market accounts. Unlike most other personal financial programs, { MONEY & BANKS } is NOT designed by formal accountants, has no double-entry bookkeep- ing, and does not bog the user down in obscure, irrelevant detail. It is, therefore, simple and a joy to use. This software allows one to do his/her banking with automatic assignment of allocations, but NO "budget forecasting" or loan amortization tables or other superfluous modules that slow the exe- cution of the program and the task at hand. The graphics-quality interface is second-to-none in all of commercially avail- able banking software for DOS computers, including the top-rated programs available in stores at more than twice the price. Features include on-line { TREE-SAVER } documentation, context-sensitive help, hot-key calculator and calendar, check printing on regular bank-printed per- sonal- or business-size checks (no special-order checks!), and a mailing label writer for paying bills that come with no return envelopes. Reports are auto- matically generated from a multiple selection of pre-designed queries and are beautifully shown on the screen or sent to a wide variety of printers. A util- ities menu offers automatic, reliable backups, system information, a credit cards minder, a securities (CD's / Bonds / Portfolio) table, and other selec- tions. There is no practical limit on the number of accounts that may be used and the account tables may grow to sizes not even imaginable in most other programs. The automatic and simple-to-use reconciliation module for monthly bank statements is a feature alone worth twice the low registration price. The "unregistered copy" version is fully functional, except for the automatic end-of-year archive and purge of data tables available in the registered ver- sion. It allows a generous evaluation period so that the user may determine whether or not to purchase a registered copy that also does not have the "un- registered" reminder screen at the outset. The full registration fee is only $25.00. { MONEY & BANKS } will work on PC's with a minimum of 512k of memory, DOS 3.1 or greater, and any video system (although there are some VGA-specific features that are compensated for with other video cards, including mono- chrome). Expanded memory will be utilized if it is present, but is not re- quired. Mouse support is provided; however, a mouse is not necessary to use the program. A hard disk is mandatory. Installation is quick, easy, and offers an option to print the formatted documentation. Developed by: RCCO Research Associates
