                  POOLS - EXPERT RESULTS PREDICTOR   (v1.3)
                          (c) B.Campbell(Morecambe)



                                 Introduction


     This program is very easy  to  use  as  it  is  all  menu driven, and all
options have default values or error  trappings.  The program will run in both
Medium and High rez, Although I recommend Medium rez (Colour).

     The predicted results  can  be  output  either  to  screen  or printer if
attached. As more results are  entered  during  the  season the program should
become even more  accurate  as  the  results  database  and  form database are
updated.

     At the start of the season  I  would  recommend that the 'Luck' option be
used for the first few weeks,  whilst  the  teams  find their form for the new
season. The 'Form' option could be used  if  required as the form figures from
the previous season will be carried through.

     When first used the  options  'Predict'  and  'Input  Match Results' will
default to the  'Create  Fixture  List'  option,  as  obviously  when asked to
predict results it requires to be told which matches to predict on.

     The option 'Modify Divisions  -  (New  Season)'  is  protected due to the
nature of this operation. The required  password  is 'config', enter this when
prompted to do so.

     There are no bugs that I know  of, should you discover any, please inform
me and I shall try my hardest to resolve them.






                                   FINALLY

     Should the unmentionable happen  (Disk  Failure),  Please ensure that you
have a back-up disk. I recommend this be done every couple of weeks due to the
nature of the data being used.









                                  GOOD LUCK

                  Please remember me when you win  6œ1,000,000
