SBT Accounting Systems To Market "F9 The Financial Reporter--Windows
Edition"

Spreadsheet tool links SBT General Ledger data to all leading Windows
spreadsheets

San Rafael, CA - May 23,1994 - SBT Accounting Systems today announced that
they have signed an agreement with Synex, a software developer located in
Vancouver, BC, that will allow SBT to market Synex's "F9 The Financial
Reporter--Windows Edition." F9 is a spreadsheet-based financial analysis
tool that allows users to hot link SBT Professional Series and VisionPoint
General Ledger data into a spreadsheet to manipulate numbers, consolidate
data, and create custom reports and graphs.

With F9, users can access "live" General Ledger data from within the
familiar environment of their favorite Windows spreadsheet--including
Lotus 1-2-3, Excel, and Quattro Pro. And because F9 runs in Windows, users
can take advantage of all the leading graphic and desktop publishing tools
to create impressive management reports based on their General Ledger
data.

F9 allows users to obtain balances from any number of accounts for any
period in any year, just by typing one formula into a spreadsheet. Once
the formula is entered, users can use the spreadsheet to calculate sums,
ratios, percentages, and variances.

F9 can also retrieve account descriptions, company information, account
type, present fiscal period, and balance type. And because F9 is hot
linked to General Ledger data, it provides the most current numbers from
the system at the push of a button.

F9 Features at a Glance

* Creates a dynamic link between General Ledger and Excel,
  Lotus 1-2-3 for Windows, or QuattroPro 5.0 for Windows.
* Supports consolidation of multiple General Ledgers--even from
  different accounting systems with different account codes and
  structures.
* Flexible account specifiers simplify complex reports from large
  and disjointed General Ledgers.
* Handles ranges, wildcards, and cell referencing for automatic

* All reports are composed and calculated from within the
  spreadsheet, so no programming is required.

  graphs.
* Utilizes SBT's General Ledger passwords to secure access
  to data.

  "Quarter 2," and "Year to Date."
