MFTC:  Mutual Fund Tax Calculator has been tested by RCCO Research to 
work with Windows 95. 




The easiest possible installation for a Windows program
--------------------------------------------------------
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.

The online documentation may be read after launching MFTC by selecting the
Documentation menu item on the main program screen, or by pressing <F1>.

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 (highly 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.
