Thank you for trying ES-Calc version 2.2b.

ES-Calc is a calculator designed for engineers and scientists.
Try it and see what a handy tool it is.

Installation
To install the program, simply click on the program setup.exe.
This will run an installation program.  It will also create an
uninstall command under the START/Programs/ES-Calc 2.2 menu.
Running the uninstall option will completely remove the program 
from your system.  If you have a earlier version of ES-Calc 
already installed on your system, it is recommended that you 
install version 2.2a in a new directory. You can later uninstall 
either version.

ES-Calc is Shareware
This is a fully functional shareware program.  You may use the 
program for evaluation purposes for 30 days.  After this evaluation 
period is up, you should either register the program (pay for it) 
or uninstall it from your computer.  There are two methods of
