Hi Dan I wish we'd known about and tried your program before getting ebase. We think ebase is great, but as you said, it's fairly cumbersome to learn. We had someone come in and set up the program so that it could print Canadian receipts. It cost more than $300.00. I'm not yet sure if we could pull out all the numbered receipts for the year - probably, but I'd have to play with it to see how. We print them out as we enter each donation now.
