New RTG Bills Offers International Date Formats

Santa Monica, California; March 22, 2000 -- RTG has announced a new release of RTG Bills, its low-cost time and billing program for Windows. Included in this release is the ability to change the date format to meet the needs of firms outside the U.S.

"The ease-of-use of RTG Bills has attracted many law firms outside the United States. For the first time, RTG Bills lets you choose the date format both on the screen and on the bills," according to Robert Hallem, president of RTG. "We expect many more firms from around the world will choose RTG Bills now that the program is not limited to the month/day/year format used in the U.S."

At the same time, RTG has released a new version of RTG Reports. "We have added new reports to help a firm analyze monthly trends," Hallem added. "You can also save the monthly data in a spreadsheet-compatible format to allow further analysis of the firm's finances using Excel or Quattro Pro."

RTG Reports is an add-on program for RTG Bills that provides additional analysis reports. It is available at no charge from RTG's Web site.

RTG Bills is designed for small law firms and sole practitioners. It combines the ease-of-use of Windows with the power and reliability of a relational database. RTG Timer, included with RTG Bills, uses a computerized "stopwatch" so that attorneys can time their work as they perform it. Fees and expenses entered into RTG Timer are read by RTG Bills. RTG Timer can communicate with RTG Bills over a network, or it can be used independently on a notebook computer or a home PC.

Existing RTG Bills users can obtain an upgrade to the new version at no charge on RTG's World Wide Web site at www.rtgsoftware.com or by mail for $15. New users can purchase the program for $50, which includes one license for RTG Timer. RTG Bills and RTG Timer are compatible with Windows 98 and Windows 95, and with any network which supports Windows PCs. RTG offers free demonstration versions of RTG Bills and RTG Timer on its Web site so that potential buyers can evaluate the programs before they purchase them.
