          -    Four windows can be opened simultaneously now.
          -    New finance functions have been added.
          -    Key board control commands have been implemented
          -    Row/Column insertion and deletion are ready
          -    You can erase cells now.

Cells input:
     To move the edit cursor: 
          -    move the mouse cursor on the character you want the 
               edit cursor stayed and press the left mouse button.
          -    if the character is not on the display range, press 
               <shift-left  arrow> or <shift-right arrow> to  move 
               the  display range and use your mouse to place  the 
               edit cursor.
     Edit direction:
          -    For  early version,  press <RETURN>  after  editing 
               will  make the cell cursor stay where it  is.
          -    From this version on,  whenever you press  <RETURN> 
               after  editing,  the cell cursor will move  to  the 
               direction the previous input goes. 
          -    Try this:
                    On cell A1:
                                   Input 1 and press <down-arrow>
                    Cell cursor moves to A2
                                   Input 2 and press <Return>
                    The  cell  cursor moves to  A3  automatically. 
                    That is because your previous input goes  down 
                    and <RETURN> ueses the last edit direction  -- 
                    that is going down.
     Special keys added:
          -    <Insert> toggles insert mode on/off.
          -    <Delete> deletes character under the edit cursor.

Four windows:
     Now, you can open up to 4 spreadsheet windows simultaneously. 
One  thing that is planning is a fifth window for BASIC.  You  can 
define  function and use variables with BASIC commands  only.  So, 
please  don't  use  variables  and  function  definition  in  your 
spreadsheet right now. Although I do not suppress the use of BASIC 
commands in spreadsheet,  the symbol table will be reset  whenever 
you close any window. Use with caution.

     Alternate commands for switching windows:
          ALT-1     Switch to the first window
          ALT-2     Switch to the second window
          ALT-3     Switch to the third window
          ALT-4     Switch to the fourth window

New finance functions:
     Those  functions  are  explained in  the  examples  provided. 
Formula for those functions are given. In case you find any error, 
please  let me know.
     On the menu title, choose menu item "Built-in Func" from menu 
title  "Help"  and  choose "Next" to get a list  for  using  those 
functions.

Key board control:
     ALT-1 to 4:    Switch display windows
     Clr Home:      Move the current cell cursor to A1
     RETURN:        If the status is "Ready", <RETURN> will change 
                    the edit direction to neutral. That is it will 
                    stay  where it is if you press <RETURN>  after 
                    editing.
     CONTROL Keys:
          S         Stands for Save.
          L         Stands for Load
          P         Stands for Print
          N         Stands for New
          Q         Stands for Quit

Row/Column insertion:
     -    From  the  menu  title  "Row/Col",   choose  menu   item 
          "Insert".
     -    Each time you can insert one row/column.
     -    If you want to insert a row before row number 13,
               Type in 13 on the field "Row: ____"
               Choose "before" under "Row: ____"
     -    Use the same technique for column insertion.
     -    Each cell reference will be adjusted accordingly.

Row/Column deletion:
     -    Choose menu item "Delete" from "Row/Col"
     -    Provide the row/column number you want to delete
     -    Choose "Delete Row" or "Delete Column"
     -    Each cell reference will be adjusted accordingly.

Cells erasion:
     -    To  erase  some cells,  choose menu  item  "Erase"  from 
          "Cells"
               Set up your range for this operation
     -    To  erase  the  entire  spreadsheet,  choose  menu  item 
          "Erase" from "Sheet"

Conclusion:
     Well,  that is all for March release.  I do hope I can finish 
everything  I  promise on version 1.0 in April and work  on  other 
thing. There is a new topic for this shareware spreadsheet program 
on  GEnie Atari ST roundtable.  If you can access GEnie,  you  can 
find the topic by using the following procedure:

     -    Log on GEnie
     -    m 475;1 (move to Atari ST roundtable)
     -    set 2 (set current category to 2)
     -    read 28 new nor (to read new message without reply)
     -    reply 28 (to leave message)

If you have any suggestions,  you can Email to me, leave a message 
on GEnie or write me a letter.

     Finally,  I  decide  to  put the desk  accessory  version  as 
shareware too (well,  it is not necessary to pay me twice). If you 
feel it is useful, please donate $10 to me.
