DataPro 4.0 hones your typing skills for data
processing types of applications. For
example, it times your entering of data into
a payroll type of application, automatically
advancing to each field, just as a program
would do. It also drills you on use of the
number pad for numeric input. This is an
excellent way to practice your data entry
skills or, if you are an employer, to test
applicants. Also included are a warm-up
program and a typing skill game. (Fred

FASTYPE.ZIP Yes 291535 4/4/1994
PC Fastype/CGA 4.4 is a typing drill program
for beginning, intermediate and advanced
typists. It uses a graphics screen to display
a picture of a keyboard on the bottom half of
the screen. The key you should be hitting is
highlighted on the keyboard while the word or
sentence is displayed on the top half of the
screen. This is very handy for beginners who
might have trouble locating keys. (William J
Letendre) (ASP) (Reg.Fee: $28)
FASTYPEV.ZIP Yes 297521 4/15/1994
PC Fastype/VGA 1.1 is an outstanding typing
drill program for all levels of skill. The
program displays a 3-D image of the keyboard
and if you have trouble finding a letter, the
key will go up and down on the keyboard after
a reasonable amount of time. Our only
complaint is that if you are typing quickly
and miss a letter completely, instead of
counting it as one error, all letters that
you type after that letter are counted as
errors until you get back in sync again.
Otherwise, this is an excellent program which
we can highly recommend. Requires VGA, DOS
3.3+, 512K RAM and a hard disk with at 800K
of space. (William J Letendre) (ASP)
