Lindenmeyer, ihuxn!tfilm > 850109.1240 Concordia Publishing House has a software system written for churches that do what you want plus much more. They have 2 versions, one for the IBM pC and the other for the Apple II. Cost is around $1000 for software. They also have package deals on the computer and/or software. They will send you a demo for the software for a refundable deposit. If you try it let me know how it goes. Our church has some higher priorities still for its money (like paying the electric bill!), but I would really like to get us computerized. Just a word processor would help our pastor immensely. Good Luck
