DOCUMENTATION
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ever wonder if your pay check is correct? Are the deductions
and withholding too much or too little? Payroll 2000 makes it
easy to keep track of your weekly or bi-weekly pay checks.
Enter the hours worked as well as overtime, holiday, sick
leave, and other pay categories, then Payroll 2000 applies the
withholding tax rates for federal, state, and city or non-city
resident based on your exemptions claimed and marital
status. Vary your K-plan deduction to see what percentage is
right for you. Check medicare, SDI, SUI, Cafeteria Plan and
social security payments. A year-to-date chart shows your
week-by-week earnings and is updated with just a mouse click.
The overtime chart saves your last year's pay periods and
calculates overtime percentage, so that you can track whether
you are pushing company limits. This is a neat little program for
one or  more individuals.

INSTALLING
~~~~~~~~~~
Floppy diskette: 
         	Type a:\setup from  Start, Run and it
will self install. If confronted with a warning that
the files on the setup disk are newer than the files
on your computer, then follow the direction to reboot. 
**YOU WILL NEED TO RUN SETUP a second time to complete
the installation.

Web Site zip:
	      UnZip to Temp folder or Run WinZip.
Double click on the setup.exe and follow the same
instructions given to floppy diskette.

SIMTEL Site:
	    Download RunTime files. To save space
simtel insists on leaving out vital runtime files
of VB programs. Runtime files can be found at:

ERROR MESSAGES
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you receive an error message, a saved file was
possibly corrupted. Not to worry. If it was your
federal tax table a pop up box will warn you of this
condition and you can obtain a new one called
Federal.Tax at my website. After downloading Zipped
file, Extract or copy to the Payroll 2000 folder.
When asked if you want to overwrite existing file,
click Yes.
If it was any other saved file mentioned below you
can simply delete said file and a new one will be
automatically created. However, your data will have
to be entered again. So, make a print out
occasionally for backup purposes. 

Delete one at a time and try again.
Substitute "You" for your saved name file.
Files to delete in case of error:
   You.pay ...........Status, Pay rate, deductions
   You.sta ...........State tax table
   You.cty ...........City tax table
   You.anw or .anb ...Yr to date for Wk or Bi
   You.otw or .otb ...OT tracking for Wk or Bi
   You.vac ...........Vacation tracking
   You.caf ...........Cafeteria Plan
The State and City tax table will be recreated
automatically to the default table.
If you install the new version into the old version
even after uninstalling the previous one, the old
files listed above will not be uninstalled. These
files were created after installation.
