CANADIANIZED ICPA CONFIGURATION FILE         updated 1994-05-30
------------------------------------
IBM Canada now formally supports the ICPA application,
in that a commitment has been made to provide day-of-announce
updates for product and pricing announcements, where possible.
Our goal is best-of-breed, six sigma accuracy.
Let us know if we miss that target.

Please report any errors, omissions, suggestions or questions.
A 'search' while in the "Help" file against the word "feedback'
will indicate the current means of communicating with IBM.
The "Sales Advisor", once available in either
softcopy or hardcopy, is no longer being maintained, as most
of the "function" it contained are present or improved upon
in ICPA. In addition, many new functions not previously
available in the Sales Advisor are provided within ICPA.
