The medallion was a 1981 quarter on a black background; the product was "In The Black", (c) 1993. Requirements were DOS 3.1 & Win 3.1, 4 M RAM & a 386. They sold at least one that I know of :) Doug H [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Ok, I can't help you, but this triggered some nostalgic R:Base moment. Didn't Microrim have an accounting package written in R:base at one time before they folded? I can see the logo in my mind, some kind of medallion or something. I wonder if they sold any of those packages.....???? Please respond to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (RBG7-L Mailing List) cc: Subject: [RBG7-L] - Off Subject: Accounting Packages G-Day all I was kinda hinted to by my boss that he would like to have another accounting package. Take in mind he's an accountant and yes money is the real issue. We are currently using Macola, and he's really not happy entirely with it, but it does save records for many years, and does the majority of what we need. I know he's stated that he only uses the OE / Invoiceing, the AP, AR, and GL sides of the Macola package we have. What other options are there on the market. Keep in mind this info. 1. We have approx 15 users at most. 4-6 at corp, 2-4 at another, and ?? at another site. 2. We have several company locations.. We are Corp offices and have several companies under us so it will have to run at at least 3 sites. The main Corp site is also the same as the Main subsidiary company. 3. One of things we like about Macola is we can do OE at one of our subsidiary companies and then transfer databases to our Corp to to billing and such. 4. We want to be able to get data in and out easily for other purposes which is mostly reporting. 5. Cost of course is the main issue. We are not a big company, yet we are not a pure Mom & Pop store either. Thanks for any feedback Jim Limburg
