New York, NY - March 15, 2001 - A. B. Computer Systems announced today that ACCPAC released a new Query tool for the ACCPAC Pro Series Accounting Software.

Product Overview

ACCPAC Query for ACCPAC Pro Series ™ makes report writing a snap for the most inexperienced users. ACCPAC Query ™ uses a simple wizard interface that lets you choose a report from a list, select the sort order and filter conditions, and direct the output to a printer, disk file, spreadsheet, screen preview or other output. In addition to running pre-defined reports, you can create your own quick reports in just minutes. Simply select which fields for your report from the list of available fields (full English descriptions, not cryptic names or symbols) and ACCPAC Query does the rest!

For finer control, use the simple query dialog to include or exclude specific records. Next, use the sort page to organize information to suit your needs. Finally, save the report so you can edit it, copy it or make it available to others.
