                        -< Editing "payees" in Phasar. >-

(Note to moderator: I've seen lots of talk about Phasar in other notes in the
past but couldn't find them. How about moving them over here under the correct
title?)  Now for a couple of questions.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Phasar, is it possible to edit/delete entry names from the list of frequent 
payees once they have been added (by the process of entering a transaction)? I 
would like to change the spelling of some of the payees, delete others and re-
order still others so that the most important ones reside at the top of the 
list.

Should I define accounts for such expense categories as mortgage, oil, telephone
etc. which I may not necessarily pay off all at once when the bill arrives? By 
doing so it would be possible to at least enter the bill (as a negative entry)
to the account when I get it and then, when I can pay it, I would simply have to
do a transfer from the checking to the (e.g.) telephone account. 

Does anyone here know the latest rev of Phasar?

Dave

Dave,

	From reading the manual (reference section, setting up accounts) I got
the impression that they recommend to set up Expense Catergories for loans,
utilities, ect... instead of having an Account for each of these. Then for 
Mortgages & loans you would use the Loan Analysis to keep track of how much you
have paid in intrest & principal at the present or sometime in the future. You
would only use an Account for things like Checking, Savings, & Credit Cards.

BTW- I am very impressed with the program so far. Still haven't officially
     set up my 1989 Phasar disk yet.
