Actually we don't see it that way, we have many customers who use
Suprtool in concert with Quiz and have done so for many years, we
see the products as complementary not competitive, but you did say
partly. :)

Actually if you put set work labels on in your Qeditmgr file this will tell
Qedit to retain the label information and Quiz will still be able to
read the file. In Suprtool, we go to great lengths to insure that you
can append to a Quiz subfile to fill the file with data so that
Quiz can use the file.
