OCTOBER ARCHIVES 1998
Part 1 of 2


TimeTrax 1.1b5
Last Update:
10/30/98

TimeTrax offers an expanded overview, and more flexible appointment generation along with improved interface -- more information, more quickly. Users may associate event entries with a symbol denoting the type of event, whether birthday, meeting or holiday. Instead of short titles, users may enter multiple lines of description for an event, without having to link to Notepad to display expanded information. A German version is also available from the developer. This version includes many new features and fixes!  If you've installed previous versions of TimeTrax, this new version gives you another 30 days to evaluate the product.  Before you install the latest version of TimeTrax, the developers request that you make a backup of your Newton data, remove the current version of TimeTrax from your Newton and be sure to have 200k of free memory upon installation. If TimeTrax is the backdrop-application, select e.g notes as backdrop first. Credit: Config eG.
