"Pen Pals" is a correspondence tracking software. It allows you to enter information about people, including a 150x175 BMP picture, birthdays and anniversaries.  Upon running Pen Pals, a list of upcoming (within the next two weeks) birthdays and anniversaries will be displayed.

Sent and Received windows allow you to enter correspondences as they are sent and received. Notes can be added to these records to keep track of what was received when.  This is helpful in tracking when was the last time you heard from somebody, or contacted them.

The Reminders program checks for special occasions occurring in the next two weeks and displays a list when run, giving the option to launch Pen Pals. The reminder program can be added to the Startup group to run when Windows is started. With the Windows-95 Plus! Disk, Reminder can be added to the system agent and run on a daily basis. This would automatically run Reminder and notify you of special occasions daily (helpful on PCs that are on all the time).

Pen Pals is a shareware program and should be registered within 30 days, or removed from your system. Comments and suggestions are always welcome. Please send comments and suggestions to CBH@GTE.NET.
