Introduction
------------

Welcome to "FRUIT CAMP", Financial Manager's 3.3 beta test version. F.M is a freeware program 
designed for simple account bookkeeping. A "digital checkbook emulator" if you will. F.M. 
started as a hobby designed on a IMB 386SX (with 16 mhz turbo, HA!) and does not rival 
commercial financial packages (like Quicken). It may, however, give home developers some 
ideas for their own applications. 

Due to certain revelations, the SM version for public access was not included. This 
is not to say it can't be used for public access, but variables like the network 
administrator and folder names must be considered.

F.M. was written in Nantucket's Clipper language (Summer '87), and uses dBase III+ files with 
the .DBF extension. FRUIT CAMP includes the .prg source file, so you can customize the output 
to your needs or fancies.

What's new for 3.3
------------------
- Records now marked "PAID" after import When TYPE OF IMPORT = "Bank Transaction File."

- Sort message changed from "this will take a minute" to "this will take a moment."

- When TYPE OF IMPORT = "Merge with another account", verification screen no longer displays
  with inverse video (Black text on grey background)

- "select type of import" pop-up screen erased before verification begins

- The question "Save current account to disk?" is asked before Retrieving another file, and
  the current file has been changed

- (Y/N/Y to All) - "Y", "N", and "A" are now highlighted

- Top of FILE->RETREIVE (and IMPORT) list wraps around when UP arrow is pressed 

- Cleaner <ESC> key processing during import verification

- DUPLICATE LOGIC SOLUTIONS:
    1. duplicate created when:
          withdrawal dates match AND
          amounts are different  AND
          multiple transactions occur on same date AND
          "Y" is the reply for "No match, add to current?"
    2. duplicate created when:
          withdrawal dates match AND
          amounts are different  AND 
          a single transaction occurs on the date AND
          "Y" is the reply for "No match, add to current?"
         
- TRANSACTION MATCHING SOLUTIONS
    1. record mismatch when:
           deposit dates match AND
           multiple deposits in the current file on the same date AND
           only 1 deposit in the import file for the same date AND
           the imported deposit is NOT for the least current deposit 

What's new for 3.2
------------------

- Import type dialog box added to verification screen.
- Fixes to anti-duplication logic when multiple teller and ATM transaction occurr 
on the same date.


What's new for 3.1
------------------

Version 3.1 contains fixes for logical errors in file->import function to detect differing 
deposit amounts between imported and current accounts.

- New utility makes F.M. portable with Microsoft "Money" and "Quicken" software.
- New file "Import" option lets you reconcile on-line bank accounts from the Internet.
- Alerts you of any differences between your system and imported accounts.
- Logic included to avoid duplication.

02.05.2001

    Help Manual now included (I thought the day would never come). Written in Microsoft Word          for printing.  

09.24.2000 

    (1) When "New" option or "Retrieve" option chosen, and the current account 
        in memory has been changed, save message was changed from: 
                              "Save account to disk (y/n)?"  to
                              "Save current account to disk (y/n)?" 

    (2) added introductary screen with copyright information  
            

07.18.2000 

    (1) Made changes to remedy the following problem: When a "Change"
        action was followed by an "Add" action, and the entry screen 
        wasn't full (i.e. less than 12 transactions), the "Add" entry 
        row would overwrite existing transactions. 

    (2) Made changes so that the number of transactions would always be 
        displayed, and each time a transaction was added, the counter 
        would be updated at the top of the screen.
 

07.13.2000 

        Typo "Transcations:" at top of screen changed to "Transactions:"


04.11.2000

        Added logic to ensure directories with more than 18 files (accounts) 
        were processed correctly during a "File" + "Retrieve" menu action.
        The effect ensures these accounts will scroll properly in the File
        Retrieve Window.
