This version includes a number of minor upgrades & fixes to 
version 3.4 and version 3.4a. The master passcode feature is for 
demonstration purposes - a unique code is only assigned for 
registered users, built into each copy. Special Group Update feature
implemented, many other features simplified.

The program will work with data and comment files created with 
version 3.0 and up.

If you have a previous version of the program, please do not directly 
install this version over your previous copy. You must take care not 
to over-write your configuration files:

	EXEMPT.CFG  
	HOURLY.CFG
	OTHER.CFG
	SALARIED.CFG
	TEMPEMPL.CFG

You can over write these files, but then you will have to re-enter 
your employee status configurations. Please over-write all other files.
