New Program Automatically Integrates Large ASCII Files Into Any Spreadsheet
Application

November 12, 1992 -- Needham. MA: -- Intex Solutions, Inc., the leading
provider of spreadsheet enhancements, announced today a new program called
TRANS PLUS. TRANS PLUS (Version 1.0), a major extension of Intex's popular
TRANS utility, is now shipping. TRANS and TRANS PLUS both save users time
and effort by automatically integrating ASCII files, including downloaded
mainframe and minicomputer files, or word processing documents and
database files into the standard .wk1 spreadsheet format without any
manual parsing required.

Aimed at users who have very large files, TRANS PLUS fills the entire
spreadsheet with data -- that's up to 256 columns and 8192 rows. This is
accomplished with a single command, and can be initiated as needed or
incorporated into a batch file to easily process hundred of files in one
session.

TRANS PLUS is unique in the way it intelligently interprets patterns of the
source file to create a spreadsheet file. Data is automatically parsed
into the proper columns and rows. TRANS PLUS even distinguishes numeric
entries from labels, and formats each appropriately.

TRANS PLUS integrates data to every major spreadsheet including all DOS and
Windows releases of Lotus 1-2-3, Symphony, Quattro Pro and Excel, and is
priced at $225, plus $5 shipping.

No Parsing Required!

"Linking one working environment to another is crucial in today's
workplace," said Jim Wilner, Vice-President, at Intex. 'TRANS PLUS makes
that job effortless no matter how much data needs to be converted."

In addition to TRANS PLUS, Intex also publishes TRANS which operates in a
similar manner as TRANS PLUS but on smaller data sets. TRANS handles 50
columns per row and 500 rows of data. TRANS lists for $125, plus $5
shipping.

"Users need to be able to take mainframe data into their spreadsheet where
they can manipulate the data and graph it," said Jim Lewis, System Analyst
at John Deere. "TRANS gets the job done well."

Technical Requirements/Ordering

TRANS PLUS runs on any IBM PC, XT, AT, PS/2 or compatible systems, 386 CPU
or higher. The resulting .wk1 files can be directly retrieved into any
version of Lotus 1-2-3, Symphony, Quattro Pro, or Excel. TRANS PLUS lists
for $225, plus $5 shipping. TRANS users who wish to "trade-up" to TRANS
PLUS may do so for $100, plus $5 shipping.
