The information was not clearly communicated the first time. Here's the update (that fits your comments above). There are two options: one is all Microsoft and costs $$$$. The other is a version of the tax software that runs on the Web and costs $$. I do not know whether the web-based version requires a specific httpd or RDBMS back end. It turns out that what she's really seeking is someone who could set up the web version and maintain it (security, software upgrades, etc.). There's another CPA who runs one of those versions so more information is certainly available from her.
