What's new in the Talking Checkbook - Version 6.0?
Say, you'll love the new macro feature that makes life easy
when entering checks or searching for them. Imagine typing in
just a few letters instead of the whole name and having the
program enter the full data for you! Read Macros.doc for the full
information on this feature.
Autopay is auto great in this version of the Talking
Checkbook. Don Barrett has outdone himself with all the
programming he did. Congrats Don and folks will love the fast
arrays you put in the program.
Don also added a blast out of the program feature that gets
you back to DOS pronto by pressing the F10 key. Not only does it
get you out to DOS from anywhere you are, but it also saves the
databases securely before leaving. This does not do the
autobackup that is always recommended, but is great if you need
to leave quickly and don't have time to spare.
If you've been bored to tears when printing checks because
of having to answer N or Y to another printing, well your days
will be happy from now on! Don has added a C to continue feature
that will make life a dream.
Finally, we've improved a few screen and placed the opening
memory checker into a delay rather than having to press a key to
continue. This saves a keystroke and the annoyance of not going
directly to the first balance question.
Enjoy and we hope to someday get to multiple accounts, but
that's a major writing that may never happen. Also please note
that some folks have asked about letter quality printing of the
checks and we suggest that you use the letter quality setting on
your printer for that. A laser Jet version of the Talking
Checkbook is currently under beta testing and Don will have that
out when he feels comfortable with it's performance.
