MYBIS bookkeeper
http://www.mybis.com.au/
http://groups.google.com/groups?dq=...lr=&ie=UTF-8&group=alt.comp.freeware&start=25
I run two businesses using MYBIS bookkeeper. It is a fully functional
GST inclusive program that has been a pay system until now. The author
is a friend of mine and has pretty much decided to go the freeware path
as he is too busy with another life to be on call for paying clients.
It is a wonderful package and very easy to use with full tutorial/help
menus.
The web site is rather out of date but still there so I suggest you go
to the site and either download a trial version or email the author to
ask for what you want. You need an unlock key from him. I am sure it
will be no problem as freeware, as he cannot provide support at the
moment and has told me that he will make it freeware.

In the past budgets used to be challenging to make. However, the development of budget software has made this process significantly less tiresome and far more enjoyable. Generally, this software works as follows: you simply allocate each dollar that you make towards something. The categories you allocate your money towards might be groceries, rent, charitable expenses, or something completely different. If you’re looking to save for college, you may wish to have a “college” category too. The benefit of using this type of software is that you can easily track your progress. For example, if you come in over-budget in food and equally under-budget in your college fund, you’ll know immediately that you need to make up the difference in future months.
