OK, Friday.  We tried Minisoft'92 a long time ago.  It had a problem
with printing at the time.  I don't know if its been fixed yet, but
I DO know that Minisoft's answer was, to net it out, "too bad".  We
needed printing, so back to Reflection.  A liitle pricey, but it
WORKS.  I have no interest in WRQ and could also say that I did
not appreciate its abandonment of PCL.
