This message comes with the complete Taxman Version 1.1 (04txm11.zip). This is the full program and is fully updated for doing your 2004 taxes (Inch'Allah).
Before mailing your return, check the list of all program errors found to date on the Taxman web page (http://pacificcoast.net/~gthompson/).

Taxman 2004 is an income tax preparation program for all of Canada except Quebec. It should be used along with the Revenue Canada guides and forms for your area. Taxman prints Revenue Canada accepted forms for the 2004 tax year.

To install: double-click on setup.exe 
The first time you install Taxman, if asked, do not replace any newer files that you already have on your computer. Only replace files if Taxman fails to work.
After setup, you launch Taxman by pressing the Start button, then going to Programs, then Taxman, and finally clicking Taxman 2004. There should also be a shortcut on your Desktop and another in the folder where you installed Taxman.

You uninstall Taxman through the Control Panel and Add/Remove Programs. Uninstall will not remove msacc8.olb and vba332.dll. These files are in the folder 'Program Files\Common Files\Taxman' and you can delete them and the folder if you want.

Please e-mail the Taxman at gthompson@pacificcoast.net with any problems or comments.

Replacing Data Files:
Your data is saved in two files: taxbiz.mdb, 03tables.mdb. If you replace one version of Taxman with a newer, your data files are normally never replaced - but wierd things can happen. Therefore to be totally safe, backup these files before moving to a newer version.
If because of bug a data file has to be replaced, you must first rename the old file (which will hide it). As an example, if 04tables.mdb is to be replaced: rename 04tables.mdb to old04tables.mdb and then setup.exe will install a new empty 04tables.mdb. After you boot the program, on the menu use 'Data Transfer\Get All' to copy in all the old data.
