We are still using all Powerhouse products (quick, qdesign, qtp and quiz) in its 6.19
version (as I am at home I cannot verify the version number rigth now).

We updated MPE to version 5.0 (Express 3.0) about 18 months ago, and have not faced
any real problems as far as Powerhouse is concerned. (We have some difficulties with
calling externals from an XL, which should solve the date/days problems; we had
problems when converting to NM KSAM - which were solved by including a CHOOSE
statement). But all our programs (about 3000) worked as before.

We are still not on MPE 5.5, but will be soon, when upgrading to a 979. I hope
Powerhouse will continue to run on 5.5 as it did on 5.0
