              improvements to this great software. 
             A new rental rate type of WD/WE has been added so that you can 
              easily charge different rates for weekdays and weekends on the same 
              reservation record. You now also have a choice of listing each day 
              separately or combining all rental charges onto one line of the 
              reservation charges.

            Now you can choose between combining all nights onto one line in 
              Reservation Tracker or having each night on a separate line. 
            A bug in the Availability Checker which kept some reservations 
              from showing has been fixed. 
            Tentative reservations can now be included in the Housekeeping 
              report.

            The Property Management Invoice can now include a header. 
            Receipts created in Reservation Tracker now have additional controls

             Colin Patterson from Australia proclaims " Your product (Vacation 
              Rental Property Tracker) has been the easiest and most informative 
              property management software I have tested (I have tried about 10 
              so far). Your support and assistance has been exceptional, especially 
              when you consider the time difference, distance and time of year. 
              You are to be congratulated."
