Folks I have QB and QBT and notice from the new products in the magazines that I do not have the latest versions. What do I need to send you to upgrade? Secondly – I have a wish for the next version of ProWrite. Would it be possible to have options allowing you to start PW with a defined AREXX port name? This would allow starting it for a macro without having to determine what is running etc. (I frequently will use two or more copies of PW) Also an option to start it with a defined port and hidden – with no screen. I have used both these options with my favorite text editor and find it most handy. Thanks Jay Dauro

Jay, Quarterback is now at 4.3 and may be upgraded following this schedule. > 4.0 to 4.3 No charge >=2.0 <4.0 to 4.3 $10 includes new manual >=1.0 <2.0 to 4.3 $25 includes new manual Quarterback Tools is at 1.5 and all older versions may be upgraded at no cost to the 1.5 version. To receive either of these upgrades return your original disk with the appropriate payment to: Central Coast Software a division of New Horizons Software, Inc. PO Box 164287 Ausitn, TX 78716 Multiple versions of ProWrite may run local macros as long as you comment out the address line at the top. I would be necessary to get a list of processes if the macro is going to switch to the command line and back. I will add your suggestions to our wish list for the next version.

My QB 4.2 works with Workbench 2.0. Although the look could and hopefully is being improved to match the new look of 2.0. –Nature Boy

Just heard that you recently picked up Central Coast? Is this true? I have a question about QB Tools, if it is. Thanks, Gary – Mirror Image Prod. (416) 495-7469, via WHAP!

Gary, No not me. I've been thinking about buying it but know no more than the advertising literature. Bruce H. -Via Whap!

Quarterback 4.3 runs fine under Workbench 2.0. As well, Quarterback Tools 1.5, Dos-2-Dos 3.5, and Mac-2-Dos 1.1d all work under Workbench 2.0. Mark Thomas Customer Support Central Coast Software A division of New Horizons Software, Inc.

Mark, does QuarterBack v4.2 run fine under Workbench 2.0 also? If it doen't I need to upgrade right away. What is the upgrade policy for Canada? Kevin Ushko Edmonton, Alberta

Kevin, Quarterback v4.2 runs fine under the released versions of 2.0, however, it does have a problem with releasing drive on exit under unreleased versions of 2.0. You will most likely want to upgrade. To upgrade from 4.0 and above to 4.3 you can send your disk to: Central Coast Software P.O. Box 164287 Austin, TX 78716 and a note saying you would like an upgrade. There is no charge for this upgrade. Mark Thomas Customer Support Central Coast Software A division of New Horizons Software

Mark, I haven't received any update notices from CCS for Quarterback, I did get the QBT 1.5 update via their BBS. If New Horizons is taking over distribution, should I expect to receive update notices from NHS now? Where do I send the a change of address notice? Chris ACCU-TYPE & GRAPHICS
