Money Math(TM), Shareware Version 1.1, INSTALLATION AND REGISTRATION


PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

Money Math(TM), v1.1 <ASP>, Financial Analysis Tools for Windows 3.1

Money Math(TM), v1.1 <ASP>, provides financial analysis tools capable of
calculating Annuities, Bank Discount, Bonds, CD's, Compound Interest,
Discounted Cash Flow, Loan Amortization, and Simple Interest in ten
different dialog boxes. Overall, more than forty-five different unknown
variables can be calculated. Extensive Windows help is available for each
calculation dialog box including twelve detailed examples. Requires
Windows 3.1.


SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

Money Math requires, as a minimum, an IBM AT or compatible computer with 
Windows 3.1 installed and running.  The current memory in your computer 
should be adequate if you are able to use other Windows 3.1 applications 
satisfactorily. The hard disk space needed is less than 150 kilobytes.
Money Math will not run with Windows 3.0, use only Windows 3.1.

MONEY MATH INSTALLATION

You will probably receive Money Math in one of two ways.  In the first 
way, you will have a floppy with the seven individual files listed 
below:

	MONYMATH.EXE  - Money Math executable for Windows 3.1
	MONYMATH.HLP  - Money Math help for Windows 3.1
	REGISTER.TXT  - Registration form for Users
	README.TXT    - Getting Started Documentation

	INSTALL.EXE   - Installation Program for Money Math
	VENDOR.TXT    - Vendor/Sysop Information
	FILE_ID.DIZ   - BBS description of Money Math
	
If you have a disk with the seven files, use the instructions given in
the section below titled, "USING THE INSTALL PROGRAM".

The second way to receive Money Math is in a compressed file or archive.  
The compressed file name should be MOMATH1.xxx where xxx indicates which 
file compression utility was used.  In this case, use the suggestions 
given in the section titled, "INSTALL FROM A COMPRESSED FILE".

If you prefer to install Money Math manually, copy the first four files 
listed above to the directory of your choice.  Install the four files in 
the Windows Group of your choice, from the Program Manager "File" menu, 
by selecting "New..."


USING THE INSTALL PROGRAM

To install Money Math, start up Windows 3.1 and put the Money Math 
floppy disk in Drive A.  From the Windows Program Manager "File" menu, 
select "Run". Type "A:INSTALL" in the box that appears.  After you press 
"ENTER" or click on the "OK" button, the Install program will start on 
the floppy drive. If you are installing from B drive, substitute the 
letter B for the letter A above.

The Install program will copy the Money Math files to a new directory 
titled "MONEY" on your hard drive (C:).  You will have an opportunity to 
revise the directory and installation location.  Click on the "OK" 
button or press the "ENTER" key to start the file transfer to the 
directory you selected.

The Install program will also create a Windows Group named "Money Math" 
and put the Money Math icons in that group.  You may move the Money Math 
icons to another group later if desired.


INSTALL FROM A COMPRESSED FILE

If you received Money Math as a single file such as MOMATH1.ZIP, copy 
this file to a temporary directory on your hard disk.  Next, decompress 
the file using the decompression utility program.  The DOS command might 
be PKUNZIP MOMATH1.ZIP if that compression utility was used to compress 
the file.  Several other compression/decompression utilities are in 
common use.  You can probably obtain the correct utility from the same 
place you obtained the Money Math archive.

If the Money Math archive file name is MOMATH1.EXE, you decompress it by 
running it as you would any DOS program.  No other utilities are needed.

Once the archive file is decompressed, you should have the seven files 
listed above in your temporary directory.  Now you can install Money 
Math as described above in the section titled, "USING THE INSTALL 
PROGRAM".  Instead of typing "A:INSTALL" in the "Run" dialog box, you 
would type, "C:\TMP\INSTALL", where C:\TMP is the current hard drive and 
directory where the seven files are located.


RUNNING MONEY MATH

To start Money Math, double-click the mouse on the Money Math icon.  
From the keyboard, use the Arrow keys to move to the Money Math icon and 
then press the "ENTER" key.

To maneuver in Money Math, use the same keys that you use in Microsoft 
Windows.  For more information on using Windows keys, see your Windows 
manual Appendix C.

All of the Calculation edit boxes that have a rectangle frame respond 
similarly to a word processor or text editor.

Selecting "Exit" from the "File" menu item closes Money Math.  You can 
also use the Alt+F4 key combination to do the same thing.


MONEY MATH DOCUMENTATION

All of the Money Math features are documented in Money Math Help.  You
can select the "Help" menu item from within Money Math or you can double
click on the "Money Math Help" icon.  Either way, the Windows Help program
will run Money Math Help.  All of the items listed below are fully
documented in Money Math Help including 12 Money Math Calculation examples
and a Search index with over 200 items.

DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY

Lovell's has taken considerable care in preparing Money Math.  Money 
Math has been carefully developed and tested according to normally

DEFINITION OF SHAREWARE

Shareware distribution gives users a chance to try software before 
buying it. If you try a Shareware program and continue using it, you are 
expected to purchase it by registering. Individual programs differ on 
details -- some request registration while others require it, some 
specify a maximum trial period. With registration, you get anything from 
the simple right to continue using the software to an updated program 
with printed manual.

Copyright laws apply to both Shareware and commercial software, and the 
copyright holder retains all rights, with a few specific exceptions as 
stated below. Shareware authors are accomplished programmers, just like 
commercial authors, and the programs are of comparable quality. (In both 
cases, there are good programs and bad ones!) The main difference is in 
the method of distribution. The author specifically grants the right to 
copy and distribute the software, either to all and sundry or to a 
specific group. For example, some authors require written permission 
before a commercial disk vendor may copy their Shareware.

Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. You should 
find software that suits your needs and pocketbook, whether it's 
commercial or Shareware. The Shareware system makes fitting your needs 
easier, because you can try before you buy.  And because the overhead is 
low, prices are low also. Shareware has the ultimate money-back 
guarantee -- if you don't use the product, you don't pay for it.


ASP STATEMENT

This program is produced by a member of the Association of Shareware 
Professionals (ASP).  ASP wants to make sure that the shareware 
principle works for you. If you are unable to resolve a shareware 
related problem with an ASP member by contacting the member directly, 
ASP may be able to help. The ASP Ombudsman can help you resolve a 
dispute or problem with an ASP member, but does not provide technical 
support for members' products.  Please write to the ASP Ombudsman at 545 
Grover Road, Muskegon, MI USA 49442-9427, FAX 616-788-2765, or send a
CompuServe message via CompuServe Mail to ASP Ombudsman 70007,3536.
