Hi, Not yet - but we (the programmers) are laying the foundation for eventual port to HIMS interface upon the release of the SDK. I could try using the Korean sDK, but it'll be hard for me to understand some of the tech terms, as I use English as I learn CS, not Korean... IN short, all we are creating is a console program to emulate running it under Braille Sense family; when the SDK is here, all we need to change would be file formats and interface routines (user input/output). Other than that, the interface would resemble that of using address Manager/Email database under Braille Sense - using dialogs for input and menus for interacting with the user. as of now, Dan Greene, the author of EZ Money, has given us (the engineers) docs for us to base our code upon. Dan uses C++ these days, so it'll be easy for us to use that language to modernize the interface and streamline the code in "unexpected" ways... In the end, the features would include importing and exporting statements in a number of file formats, including HIMS database format, CSV, XLS, etc., as well as modularizing the code base to include new features in subsequent releases. A general request: are there any programmers or CS students on this list? We need your input about HIMS interface and how to get user input and display information - so that I can write "emulation" code for it - with Alex (or someone) writing equivalent code for other products... C++ programmers prefered. Cheers, Joseph
