Hi Dazmond

I had to remove the currency signs because of a bug in Windows 7 which always displays the Dollar sign...

Does the removal of the currency sign also apply to invoices? or am I being thick??
I like the job ref number, is there a way to display this on printed worklists/jobsheets?

Hi Neil

Yes - there are no currency symbols in George now. I will give it a few months and then try again - to see if Microsoft have fixed it.

I've had requests to print the Job Reference and the new second phone number on the WorkList. The only problem is that it will need another line - which will make the list a fair bit longer.

If there are no currency symbols, do you have GBP written afterwards?

Hi

I assume most people know what their currency is...

Would it be possible to insert "£" in the invoice/statement of account templates in the "cost" "total" "value" "balance" "balance at" headings?
I understand what you say about length of list, but imo for the id no. to be useful it has to appear on the worklist and then could be used for worktickets and for customers to quote when paying.

Hi Neil

I can't show the currency symbol because I don't know what it is. When you ask Windows for it you sometimes get a Pound and sometimes a Dollar.  That's why I cant show "UKP" either.

Yes - I intend to show the customer reference on the WorkList (it's already on the Invoice) but I haven't decided on the new layout yet.

Thanks Paul, I'll shut up now.

How about having a Windows XP version which includes the £ sign and a Windows 7 version without?

Hi Andy

One version is enough - it's only temporary...

How do you manage to stay trading when you only charge £50 and give unlimited upgrades and support.

Another top program was advised to cease trading by there accountants, as they couldnt make money when they are charging over double what you do,

Just curious ?

Some people know how to run a business & some don't, is my guess!

Looking on their site it's £177 + vat which is £207.97 so thats over 4x as much

Gota say George is great.  Would not be without it and so so simple to use and covers everything my business uses.

[Sure Cleaning]

I've been using George for 5+ years now. Excellent piece of software and has made managing my business so much easier.

George has grown and developed a great deal since I first got it, I've lost count of the number of upgrades there have been.

Also first class back up service from Paul. Always there to help if needed.

£50 excellent value, if honest way to cheap.

Thanks Paul.

I think the best thing about George is that it is idiot proof, I have tried other programs, but the buttons take too much thinking about,

when I pitch to people I say we clean windows well, and If its glass we clean it.

Same as George, when you press a button it does exactly what it says,

from reading the threads on WCP, i got the feeling they started as a hobby thought we could be millionaires,  started the business, got the cars etc all payed for by the business and then realised that it wasnt working,

becasue once the program is made all the cost are coping the program which is download any way  so should be minimal   and prehaps this is what the owners of geroge are doing, keeping it as a hobby rather that there sole income

[The Jester of Wibbly]

anyone else run the update yet who uses pocket george?

ust ran my update and I now cannot run georg at all.  I get an error saying i need to install the latest pocket goerge before I can run george.

I have downloaded the pocketgeorge software again but the problem is still there.

[traps7]

Uninstall palm desktop and then reinstall it. Don't repair it. And get the latest pocket george. Worked for me.

[Frankybadboy]

you need to delete pocket george from your palm,then reinstall

Hi Guys

I'm going to be out of circulation for the rest of today (my son is getting married).

If you ask a question and don't get an answer please don't think I'm ignoring you - I will get back to you in the morning...
