		SUREFIRE CONTACTS  VS1.0

- Customize and extend this Contact Manager for your business.
- Have all the capabilities of SUREFIRE - THE SMART DOCUMENT
  PROCESSOR at your fingertips.

SUREFIRE CONTACTS is a Smart Document application designed to run
with the award winning SUREFIRE - THE SMART DOCUMENT PROCESSOR. 
This contact management system has all the features you'd expect; 
a contact database, mail-merge into form letters, a daily agenda 
and timely reports. But it's what you don't expect that will make 
you more productive than ever.

You'll be able to use the vast capabilities of Surefire to customize
Surefire Contacts into your own unique contact management system. 
Maybe you want to keep financial data about your clients. Or, you 
want to store information on your distributors, suppliers, associates 
and others. Perhaps automatically generating quotes and proposals will
save you hours of time. You may even change any of the standard reports 
to fit your needs, or add completely new ones. All this and more is 
possible with Surefire!
