NEWSLETTER | MARCH 2006

On March 1, 2006, Calyx Software will issue an I-Update that automatically updates the interfaces in Point (version 5.2). The update installs automatically and adds new vendors to the Services in Point and Preferred Point Partners menus. The I-Update also updates existing interfaces as needed.

The update process applies to Services in Point and Preferred Point Partners only—no personal information is collected and no modifications are made to any other portions of Point software. Sometime in March, after Point users open their 5.2 software and are connected to the Internet, Point will automatically receive and install the I-Update. This update includes:

New Services in Point
· Amaesing Credit Sol
· CR BUREAU SLO SB
· American Mort. Reports
· Mtg. Credit Sol. Inc

New Preferred Point Partners
· Compliance EAGLE

Although Point 5.3 will not install on computers running Windows NT 4.0, Calyx will continue to support non-retired versions of Point (version 5.0 and higher), all of which are compatible with Windows NT 4.0. Information about Point 5.3 and its wealth of new features will be included in the April 2006 newsletter.
