Reports This CP/M database will justify itself to most people more through its ability to exploit files as large as there is free room on the disc rather than any particular sophisticated facilities. About 80K is free per side of disc on a single drive system which is quite reasonable. The aspect of Micropen that will make attractive to some is that it can exploit discs to allow data to be manipulated and injected into pre-set forms. The whole package provides a cheap entry point for report writing, mail merge, invoicing, whatever, with better printer control than is possible with masterfile alone. However competition will come from the forthcoming Tasword that will allow mail merge in conjunction with Masterfile data. Tony Kendle , Popular Computing Weekly (1985)
