Below is a list of some of the common questions that have been asked:

 

Q

What about the serial number, how do I get it ?

A

Once purchased via the merchant - (protexis), you will automatically receive a serial number via email.... Its easy and painless..

As you know the software will cease to operate at 100 expense entries or 60 days. We have ensured that you get heaps of time to evaluate this fantastic product... By providing the software this way it ensures that you are 100% satisfied that this product is right for you, with being able to get maximum use before needing to hand over any cash....

If its not what you were looking for, that's ok, at least you didn't waste your money finding out....

 

 

Q

How do I backup and restore ?

A

There are two files that need backing up in case you have a malfunction. Should your system malfunction and needs to be reinstalled, you will be glad you backed these up..

We have provided a backup and restore facility, but if you are wanting to store the files on cd, we understand that some system setups will prevent the supplied facilities working. You can manually backup and restore the files. Simply copy the files below to a Cd, and copy them back again after reinstallation.

The files to copy to the cd are found in this directory c:\program files\LCTaxtime.

The two files to backup are called..... data.mdb & datapay.mdb

 

 

Q

How often should I back up ?

A

That's really a personal choice.. We cant say how often. What I can say is that I personally should backup every week, but I don't, and usually only do it every month. But then I run the risk of loosing the last months information if a crash happens, so I backup whenever I feel like remembering to do so, and hopefully its every other week.

 

 

Q

Why doesn't the date enter correctly ? (Mainly for Australian's)

A

This is because your regional settings are not set to English (Australia), it is most likely set to English (United States) as per many default installations. The best place to go is to the program itself. It has a complete description on how to resolve this.

Open the program, press Help on the Main Screen, click the button at the bottom that says "Still Having Problems Entering Dates" and then press the button that says "I Cannot Enter the Dates Correctly - Its still a Mess"

Alternatively, go to google.com and do a search for changing the date settings in windows.

 

 

Q

How do I change the Address Details ?

A

Either click Setup on the Main Screen and go to "Enter name of your Business", or click on your name at the bottom of the Main Screen, you will automatically be taken to the Change Details Screen...

Just click on the Change Details button next to the Business you want to change. Its that simple.

Remember that you have the ability to run 5 businesses at once, simply click "change details" next to a blank line and add the other profile... Its that simple.

Q

I see rectangles on my screen ?
A

If you experience what appears to be rectangles on the screen, your screen settings are less than 24 bit.

This should not be much of a problem in the year 2007 as all modern pc's and monitors are capable of 32 bit. If the program opens up with what appears to be a series of rectangle lines of colors across the screen, then check your settings. You may need to install your video drivers, or simply change the screen setting to a min of 24bit.

On most pc's you can accomplish this by simply right clicking anywhere on your desktop (not on an icon), going down and left click on properties, click settings, check the Color Quality and change it to a min of 24bit
