Electronic Teller is an attractive, easy-to-use financial application geared to those who need an OS/2-specific set of utilities to track bank, credit card, cash, asset, and liability accounts. For users who manage accounts for various individuals, Electronic Teller offers multi-user support, essentially a firewall to shield accounts contained in one "portfolio" from those in another.

Among its many support utilities, you can expect to find

- a calculator;

- single or perpetual reminders for fiscal or social events

- a truly configurable cheque printer -- simply drag standard

cheque fields to millimeter-specific locations

- a wide assortment of reports with summary and subtotalling options

- category tracking and graphs

- yearly or perpetual budget tracking and graphs

- transaction fee or service charge tracking

- QIF import / exports

- international currency support on a per-transaction or account basis;

- international language support, which currently includes

French, German, Portuguese, Spanish, UK, and US English;

- a convenient backup / restore utility that can be configured to make use of InfoZip's (c) similarly-named utilities to conserve media space further.

Electronic Teller strives to take the pain out of managing finances, and key to this is organization. Accounts, therefore, are displayed in ledgers with transactions grouped by year. Reconciliation, too, is made easy: either use the dedicated window or clear transactions directly from within the ledger.

The only way to appreciate fully the advantages of Electronic Teller is to download the fully functional version and to make use of the 30-day trial period. You are guaranteed not to be greeted by nag screens or gentle reminders to register, but there is a 200 transaction limitation which does not include imported records.

New in this Release:

- Attempting to complete reconciliation would ignore any interest payments or service charges. - Reconciliation Credits / Debits have been improved visually. - The Add and Deletebuttons for reconciliation credits / debits would sometimes conflict with the <Enter> key when used to mark an entry cleared. - Reconciliation statement date incorrectly displayedthe date of the first item read. It now displays the last day of the previous month. - Running balance would not be properly updated if a transaction's date was changed where previously it resided near the start of a month. - It is now possible to sort transactions by date (default), code, description, category, or class. Sort options other than date default to an item subtotal balance rather than the usual running balance. An additional option has been added to force a running balance, however. Sort / balance options are attached to a specific year and not an entire ledger. - Transaction archival, reconciliation, and search & replace functions have been moved to separate *.EXEs to decrease overhead associated with the Account Book and to solve a conflict between ET and Styler/2. - Major conflicts were discovered between ET and Styler/2. Although not all of these have been corrected (some are too erratic to track) those that would not allow a user to perform basic Account Book functions (turning pages, reconciliation, etc) have been corrected. This is about as far as I'm prepared to go to support a third-party WPS enhancer. - Links between accounts could potentially get the amount wrong in the linked account.

- It is no longer possible to invoke the 'Splits...' dialog if the Transaction window for the account in question is opened.

- Transaction report now contains blank lines at the end of the report that can be used for manual transaction recording to be transferred into ET at a later time. The number of empty lines depends upon the amount of free space remaining on the last page of the report.

- Left and right mouse clicks on the category graphs is more tolerant about where the click has taken place. Clicking on top of the bar will be recognized, but the side of the 3D bar continues to be ignored.

- Textual amount in the Cheque pre-printer dialog could not be altered.

- The numeric amount, payee, and memorandum values in the Cheque pre-printer dialog can now be edited before the cheque is sent to the printer.
