What about HPListKeeper -- HPList for short?

It was a menu-driven flat-file database creator. End users can lay out 
fields and do basic selection, sorting, formatting, and printing of 
their list. It creates the files as SD type -- don't know if it's the 
same as Query's SD or not.  We still use it on our N4000, even though I 
think it originally was on our Series 64. How's that for 
forward-compatibility!

I wrote a COBOL program that'd decipher the SD portion of the file and 
spit out a PowerHouse PDL source file that could then be compiled so 
that Quiz could access the data directly.  My first foray into using the 
FOPEN intrinsic in COBOL....
