    changes to the numeric/displayed value
  - new SelStart/SelLength/SelText events

a few minor bug fixes. Introduction of on-line

Future of PSPNUM.VBX:
---------------------

We actively look for user feedback in on-going
development plans. Expect releases at least every
4-6 weeks for the remainder of 1995.

All the following (in rough order of priority) should
be delivered this year:

  - Clipboard (cut/paste) support
  - Arithmetic/logical operations involving string
    parameters
  - Win95/OCX versions
  - Dialog box for mask settings
  - Bound control support (low-priority)
