* Savings Bond Pro offers database choices during a server installation. You can select MS Access, MS SQL Server 2000 (or higher), or Oracle 8.05. If you opt to use SQL Server or Oracle, you must already have the database structure in place.
** A Magnetic Ink Character Recognition (MICR) reader connected directly to your keyboard can capture the series, denomination, and serial number; just enter the issue date and Savings Bond Pro automatically prices the bond.
*** If your financial institution uses Savings Bonds DirectSM, you can use Savings Bond Pro to create bond order files. Enter the required purchase info on today's RDS application directly into Savings Bond Pro. At the end of the day, create the RDS file (from within Savings Bond Pro) and send it using www.savingsbondsdirect.gov.
