        Welcome to WaverlyStreet's "QuickRef Project Assistant" 2.2
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
QuickRef is a record keeping and reporting tool which allows you to quickly
and accurately keep track of time and money put towards various "projects",
and to keep notes about them. Although it was written specifically to assist
in construction project management, it can be used in any field.

QuickRef records time and money, shows "to do" items, and helps you keep
written notes on each project. You can use it in either an "individual" mode,
or record items for any number of people.

QuickRef can instantly print reports including:

- "Snapshots" on one particular project, showing the total time and money
  invested, "to-do" items, plus project notes to date. Time records may be
  broken down by worker, if in multi-user configuration.

- Comparative reports showing project time and money in relation to selected
  other projects currently underway.

- "To-Do" lists, showing project header information and all "to-do" items.

- Project lists, including note and status fields.

Permanently archive records on closed projects, maintaining instant access for
future reference. Mirror records on an office network so that several users
may share information.

QuickRef does not require that you conform to a new project numbering scheme.
It will work with any system where the alpha-numeric "project number" does not
exceed eight characters in length. If your numbering scheme is well
structured, the QuickRef report section can be easily tailored to pick only
certain types of projects, according to the placement of project number
characters. (ie: report on all projects where the "n"th character is "x", or
where the first two characters are "yz", etc.) The program also works equally
well with completely unstructured project identifications.

New in version 2.2
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Added registration code algorithm and made straight nagware. No restrictions 
on program operation, no need to reinstall the program after registering.

Fixed bug where incorrect ending date was stated in a Snapshot report
containing both time and money records from both current and archive data.

Made it so that in a Snapshot report you may include your choice of time
and/or money line items, rather than just all or none.

Made it so that when you select "all" projects in reports, a list of all are
displayed - just like with any other selection option. This way, you may
select all, then pick off only the few you didn't want included.

Added search function to the single project screen.

Added the subdivision tag to the screen display of line items, and also a
feature where subdivision names can be quickly seen (for reference) from the
single project screen.

Added option to show subdivision breakdowns in snapshot reports.

Added a warning box to indicate that a mirror update has failed - in case you
aren't logged on to your network.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Other recent changes (version 2.1)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Enhanced network mirror privacy of worker pay rate information that might be
maintained by a supervisor running the program in multi-worker mode.

Added feature where all data files may be re-sorted and the network mirror
updated in one un-attended operation.

Made "Yes" the default choice on updating the mirror at program shut-down.

Fixed bug in date input routine where only the current year could be used for
new and revised entry dates.

Fixed problem with multi-user time breakdown, where only those individuals
with three-character initials were being included.

Registration
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
To encourage future program development, please register QuickRef. In
exchange, I will send you a working registration code to enter at the opening
screen. Once a valid code is entered, the display of the opening screen will
be permanently "turned off". Please see the order form (order.txt) for
registration options.

Registration costs $35 (US), and is greatly appreciated! Your registration
code will work on all subsequent versions of QuickRef too. Check back at the 
web site from time to time to see if I've put out a new version.
