Thanks. I wrote it because I handled a lot of quotes.

As far as I remember, this is a problem. I should confess that both
Quotes and LearnFast are on my second 6 meg card and I haven't used
them for weeks. Yes, a 16 megs card would help if I continue to use
the Ethernet card (and I would like to install the Japaneese-English
dictionary for quicker reference). I have one around, but... Well, I
could put away the 5 megs of NewtWorks docs I have or the same amount
of notes, but I don't have a good synching software to export all
notes in a row. What would be nice in fact would be a software that
allows to store data on the macintosh as a soup (adding data if
required), eventually storing using a second unique ID, and a browser
for them (as well as those on the Newton) so that we could get parts
back to the Mac and then export them from the mac store to some
files. OK, I've just had this idea, shouldn't be very hard with what
I've already written in the DCLs.

Umm. Back to Quotes. I will try to fix the problem when I'll find
some time. I'm leaving to the country for the week end, hence I may
look into it next week.

Regards,

Paul
