small paper manual came with mine. Try google search for: Manual for Sharp EL-1197PIII calculator. I'll bet there's one online.

I just type in on a Google search "Sharp EL-1197PIII heavy duty calculator manual" and it usually shows several sites where you can download the manual that came with the calculator. I've never had to pay for a manual yet.

Yes, there is a calculator function. It did not seem as easy to use as a regular calculator, but the functionality is there and I have not experimented with it very much. I don't really use it as it was bought for my wife, and she does not use it often (see my review on Amazon).

No idea, unfortunately. I bought it for one of our work sites that I'm not in charge of, and I guarantee no one there would know how to check. Sorry!

Wish I could help but wouldn't know where to start. If this is a question try using the "?" symbol.

This calculator comes with two instruction sheets that are about 24 by 15 inches in size, and they are double sided. The one sheet describes all of the functions of the calculator, while the other provides examples of these functions. It probably would have been nicer to have a booklet format with a table of contents and an index. The sheets are fairly comprehensive though.

Who knows! I have the same problem. You would think their instruction pack would give this information or have it on their website but all you can do is guess according to what other reviewers say. Piece of junk!

not sure, but curious why you are buying such a ancient calculator (maybe by force??) ick... I would never go back to the 84 since the release of the nspire cx or even the hp prime.

Thanks for your comment. I was going to purchase this, however seeing as how all of the information entered was the same sans age and you got two very different answers, this calculator seems faulty.

Try all zeros and try one number +/- on each of the four digits from what you "think" is the correct combination. If that fails, depending on what is inside, you can either try all 10,000 combinations OR attack it physically. If it is empty, I would just throw it out!

I looked at the one I have and it does not have a calculator with it. There is a pocket as shown and I think it takes a small standard 8 digit calculator like you can get from Staples or office depot for less than $ 10.00.

Terre, I have the Calculator at work but I would have to say yes off the top of my head. The only way it would do that is if it has a physical slide for setting the number of decimal points. I don't believe this has that. I can double check tomorrow when I'm at work. And post another response if it does.

Sorry couldn't say for sure but it is an advanced calculator. Bought for niece in 9th grade and suitable for next 3 years. Blogs should tell you about calculus

Terry - I checked the calculator today and it does not have a way to set the decimal to automatically be added to numbers. You have to keep putting in the decimal point but since it it not a large calculator, it is pretty easy to do.

I don't remember that it came with a calculator. But if it did, it's not there any more, so the answer would be, yes, if it comes with one.
