TRX Version 1.1 (Unregistered) Notes

Installation
To install TRX under Windows 3.1 or 95 run the SETUP.EXE program found among
the unzipped files from TRX11.zip.  SETUP will install the DOS Protected Mode
version of the program.  You may also install this program under DOS by
running the INSTALL.EXE program in the DOS environment.  This program will
give you the option to install either the DOS Protected Mode program or the
Real Mode version.

Features
TRX is a portfolio management and investment tracking program designed for 
the small investor.  It allows you to manage multiple investment and cash 
accounts and many different assets.  Some of the features of this program are:

Hardware Requirements
TRX  requires a PC running DOS 4.0 or higher or MS Windows 3.1 or higher with 
a VGA or better graphics adaptor.  A mouse is helpful.

How to Start the Program
Start the program by double clicking on the TRX icon.  Once the program has 
started, you can get help on using the program by clicking the Hints menu 
item.  The program also has context-sensitive help that displays help on the 
topic you are using.  If you want help on a particular menu command, just 
highlight the command and press the F1 key or click the Help item at the 
bottom of the screen.

Using the Sample Data
The program comes with an extensive set of sample data which will be installed
automatically when you install the program.  You can test the program by using
the sample data.  When you want to add your own data, you can delete the
sample data.  If you wish to keep the sample data, then run the backup
command (found under the File menu item) to save the sample data on a floppy
disk before you delete it.  When you delete the sample data, delete the
accounts first.  This is because, if you delete the assets first, you will not
be able to delete the assets owned by accounts.  Once the accounts have been
deleted, the assets may be deleted.

Deinstalling the program
The Windows installation of the program comes with an UNINSTALL program.  This
will delete all of the files associated with the program, INCLUDING ANY DATA
FILES associated with the program, and will then delete the directory in
which the program is located.  The only program left will be the uninstall
program itself, TRXDPMIU.EXE, which resides in the Windows directory.  You
will have to erase this file manually.

The DOS Real Mode version of the program does not come with an uninstall
program, so you must erase the files in the directory manually. 

Upcoming Versions
TRX v2.0 for Windows is under development and expected to be available in
late 1997.  This program will have all of the functionality of TRX v1.1 and
more, including ability to print graphs, drag-and-drop capabilities for
values in edit controls and the calculator and calendar, ability to enter
and save data on commissions and fees for transactions, and much more.
For current TRX users, the new version will look very much the same and have
many of the same commands.
