Frequently asked questions (and answers) about UZPronto
-------------------------------------------------------


Q: Does UZPronto run on Windows 95?

A: Yes, it runs on Windows 95.




Q: Why do I get "Cannot open calendar..." upon starting UZPronto?

	A: You need to run the INSTALL.BAT script from the MSDOS prompt
	   to properly install UZPronto on your system.



Q: Why are appointments not added when I enter them in the Day View?

	A: You need to press RETURN in order to tell UZPronto to add it.




Q: Why do UZful Software users have to be licensed?

	A: In contrast to the traditional retail approach, shareware
	   gives the user the software to try before paying.

	   We need to prevent  unlimited  free usage of our software,
	   because it is the only hope of making a living in selling
	   inexpensive, useful software. With this type of software, it
	   is common for potential customers to "forget" to register.
	   In an  ideal world  we would not have to  restrict our
	   distribution.  In  this one, our  licensing mechanism
	   encourages a choice, after a reasonable trial period, on
	   whether you want to continue using the software or not.

	   Instead of relying on nag screens ("nagware"), limited
	   demonstration versions ("crippleware") or other (costly?)
	   incentives (manuals, support, ...) to encourage users to
	   register, we believe these approaches are not in your best
	   interest, because they are annoying, do not allow you to
	   fully explore the product before paying, or cost you more.

	   With our no-nonsense approach, you get the fully functional
	   product before you lay out a penny. In fact, the registered
	   version and the software you have in your hands are
	   identical, except for the permanent license key, which we
	   will issue to you upon payment.  You pay only for what you
	   already have, nothing more, nothing less.



Q: It is cumbersome to fill out the registration form, and to plug in
   the license key. Isn't there an easier way?

   	A: We're sorry, it is the only way for us to continue developing
   	   low-cost software for you, the user.  The 5-10 minutes that
   	   it will take to fill out and mail the registration form and a
   	   check, and to replace the evaluation key with the new license
   	   key, will ensure your continued enjoyment of our time-saving
   	   tools.  And now, with registration through the Compuserve
   	   Shareware Registration service (GO SWREG), it is even simpler.



Q: Do I need to buy the optional floppy?

	A: No. Upon payment, we will e-mail (or postal mail) you the
	   license key to enable  continued  use of the product. The
	   enclosed instructions will ask you to use a text editor to
	   cut and paste the license key into the existing software.

	   The  optional  floppy  contains the  latest version of the
	   product. Our license provides free limited upgrades (that is,
	   if you  download  a newer  version  of the product, it will
	   continue to work with the license key you have, and you will
	   not need to reregister). However, it may well be worth it to
	   purchase the floppy, if your version is several months old.
	   If there is no later version to the one registered for, we
	   will wait with the floppy until the next version is released.
	   In addition, it will already contain the license key issued
	   to you, and will  include  evaluation  copies  of our other
	   products, saving you the cost and time of downloading.
