                           Announcement for immediate release-January 1996

                                   A NEW INTERNET PAYROLL SERVICE

        DATAPAK, INC. announces their new and exciting payroll solution that

runs payroll automatically in the users office and on the PC desktop by office

personnel.  PAYKWIK Advanced Payroll software provides over 350 ways to solve

messy payrolls for companies large and small.  It calculates and prints

employee checks like conventional payroll software.  Then, it automatically

produces the Federal and State tax withholding payment checks, third party

Insurance and Child Support payment checks and 941's, and State Wage reports

on both conventional paper or electronically via the INTERNET.  Automatic 

INTERNET tax payments and government reporting takes advantage of new computer

technology. This eliminates the need for expensive accounting support and the

inconvenience of the outside payroll service.  


        Your company can download the PAYKWIK Advanced Payroll software from

America On-Line, Compuserve and the PAYKWIK Home Page on the INTERNET for a 

free trial.  In fact, you may download the fully functional PAYKWIK software 

and run it free until you decide it is the best solution for your companies 

payroll needs.  If your company has 5 or less employees, you may use it free 

until your company expands.  Other companies will pay a per check fee that

starts with a low $25 per month minimum.  The Payroll Service Charge check

is printed automatically each pay period.  Give the employees their checks,

send the Federal Tax payment check to the bank and the service check to 

DATAPAK and your payroll and reporting is completed quickly and efficiently.


        PAYKWIK uses an entirely new and efficient way to process payroll.  

It was perfected over a 15 year period by DATAPAK, INC. of Vicksburg, 

Mississippi.  DATAPAK is a small computer software development company with 

extensive computer experience with a wide variety of mainframe, mini and PC 

computers.  They have not only improved the payroll procedure, but their 

solution considers the real world computer problems of hardware and computer

speed and the need for on-line operator assistance.  


        In the event of a power or hardware failure, PAYKWIK restarts

automatically when the computer is returned to service.  It remembers where 

it was and simply restarts at that point.  Restoring of backup data from 

diskettes or tape is not required.  


        DATAPAK'S proprietary FLASH technology speeds computer processing 

by a factor of 30 times so that payroll will compute faster on a PC computer 

than it will on most mainframe computers.  When data is automatically loaded 

from a time clock or diskette, a one-hundred person payroll loads and computes 

in 3 minutes.  An on-line EXPERT SYSTEM monitors the operator actions.  POP-UP 

Windows with guidance steer the office person with little payroll knowledge

through the payroll process.  In fact, the PAYKWIK menu notes the last program

run and it points to the next program in case their is a change in operators 

or a break in the process.


        PAYKWIK produces the conventional paper pay checks and reports, and 

it also prints laser checks and Electronic reports as well.  Laser checks print 

on blank paper with a full disclosure of useful payroll information, vacation 

and sick leave and a message to the employee.  Magnetic toner in the laser 

printer provides for the bank to read the bank account number on the check.

A company logo and signature(s) may be scanned with a $99 hand scanner and

automatically printed on the laser check.


        Electronic reporting is a growing government requirement.  It has been 

predicted that by the year 2000, electronic reporting will be required for

government reporting of all companies.  PAYKWIK does this now!  Employee checks 

are conventionally sent via Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) to the bank 

using Direct Deposit and distributed to the employee bank via the established

Automated Clearing House (ACH) system.  PAYKWIK does this and it supports

Federal Tax payments with TAXLINK, and electronic W2 and State Wage reporting. 

PAYKWIKS State Wage reporting conforms to the new standard ICESA format that 

has been accepted by 18 States as of April 1995.  Vice-President Gores' efforts 

to simplify government is effecting standardization among the States and 

PAYKWIK supports these new developments now.

        The confusing Child Support deductions and payments to the courts is

automatically produced by PAYKWIK.  The Federal government mandated that an 

option for electronic Child Support payments be made available by all States 

by October 1995.  PAYKWIK automatically produces this report and payment on 

diskette for telephone modem transmittal to the State.


        PAYKWIK has been compressed to fit on a single 3 1/2 inch diskette to 

ease on-line downloading from a NETWORK.  It takes minutes to download with a

14.4Kb modem.  A more comprehensive version, PAYKWIK-PRO adds Multi-State 

Withholding in a pay period, Job Cost, certified government payroll, table 

pay rates, Novel Networking and remote data entry.  PAYKWIK-PRO fully supports 

the 600 local tax jurisdictions found in Ohio and surrounding States.

PAYKWIK-PRO comes on 4 diskettes with a comprehensive GETTING STARTED and

USER Manual.

hot line telephone Support and via the INTERNET to 71544.2643@COMPUSERVE.COM,
