VisualTools Software Development Tools Compatible with dBASE for Windows

Viable New Market for VBX

(Lenexa, KS--June 22, 1994) VisualTools, Inc. today announced compatibility
of its VBX software development tools with Borland International's new
dBASE for Windows. Borland's large installed base of dBASE customers
represents a viable new market for VisualTools' object oriented
programming tools for VBX supported Windows applications development.
VisualTools products include a spreadsheet tool, spell checker, and an
image conversion and management tool.

"Borland's introduction of dBASE for Windows expands the potential VBX
development market by more than 6 million users, and brings a powerful new
force to the VBX custom controls arena," said Tom DeBacco, President of
VisualTools. "This represents a significant opportunity for our Formula
One spreadsheet tool to provide dBASE developers the ability create
database applications that can access and manipulate dBASE files through
an Excel compatible spreadsheet."

resource intensive applications.
