Basic Features


ActiCalc is both a freeware and shareware program.  You can download the program from many shareware index sites and immediately use all of its basic features, which include:
  • Simple 4-function calculator, usable immediately with no special knowledge
  • 12 of the most common scientific functions
  • 3 memory registers, accessible with one click of the mouse
  • Unique IntelliTape, an active register showing running balances for all calculations
  • Change any entry on the tape, with immediate automatic recalculation
  • Multiple independent blocks of calculations can be stacked on the tape, and linkages among calculations can be established with a single mouse click
  • Add or delete any row on the tape
  • Quickly recall any numeric item from the tape with a single mouse click
  • Make an active reference to any previous balance on the tape.  Whenever this balance changes, the references to this entry will change accordingly.  This effectively gives you an infinite number of memory registers.
  • IntelliDoc, which allows you to add comments with a minimum of keystrokes
  • Adding machine mode, which reduces keystrokes when working with currency
  • Tip-of-the-day function makes it easy to learn ActiCalc's advanced features.

    The freeware version of the program is intended for casual users, so the number of rows in the IntelliTape is limited.

    If you like the basic features, you will love the powerful
    premium features that make ActiCalc a shareware program.  To access these premium features, you must register ActiCalc and pay a nominal fee.  Once registered, you will receive a registration code.  You simply enter this code into ActiCalc to enable the premium features.  You don't even have to reinstall ActiCalc.
