		COCO CALCULATOR VERSION 2.1
		==== ========== ======= ===

DESCRIPTION
===========

Coco is a fully functional scientific calculator
programmed using Visual Basic 5.0.  This calculator has
been designed to closely resemble standard hand-held
scientific calculators.  Most of its features are easy to
use; nevertheless, much time was spent in developing a
help file which is included with this application, so
please be sure to use it if you need assistance.

REQUIREMENTS
============

You need to have Windows 95 or later installed on your
computer.

Visual Basic 5.0 runtimes are required.  If your
computer does not have these files, you can download
them for free at this URL:
http://www.simtel.net/simtel.net/win95/dll.html
                      Download the file named vb500a.zip

It is recommended that your video card display at least
16 thousand colours.

This application can be used either with a mouse or the
keyboard.

DISCLAIMER
==========

I am a mining engineer, not a computer programmer.  I
have spent long hours debugging this program and making
sure that all aspects of it work correctly.  I have used
it for my own purposes and have found it to be extremely
reliable.  However, I cannot guarantee that it is
completely free of bugs.

If you find any bugs in this application, find that some
feature is conspicuously absent, do not like the way
something works, or simply have some questions or
comments, please e-mail me at ricardomir@hotmail.com.
I will do my best to get back to you as soon as I can.
For up to the minute information and/or updates, refer

I hope you find this program useful.
