Acknowledgements The basic idea for this software was aided by the book Starting Your Own Business: An Easy-to- Follow Guide For The New Entrepreneur by Joan Sotkin (© 1993), but the actual Business Plan format was developed by the author of this software based on her own experiences. The author of this software would like to thank the following people: *Allan Udy for creating Notebook Maker and for his continuous help and support. *Alan Walker for agreeing to test for bugs with one of my other NoteBooks (and for his patience). *Carol Anne Hoppins for being one of my best friends and the best local support system anyone could ask for. *Neil Schulman, as always, for teaching me, answering my questions, giving me ideas, being another of my best friends and just plain being there for me. *The City of St. Joseph, Missouri, for accepting me with open arms. *YOU!!!
