Re: Need to replace Surpass

Hello Kirk, 

Back in the early days our WinSpool/400 Report Download software used to 
compete with Tangent once in a while. 

Their Surpass spool file parsing tool is actually an OEM version of the 
DataImport software which we sell. 

They had a 5250 screen scraper tool for downloading spool files as well. 
It was great for its time, but they never moved it beyond a screen 
scraping tool. 

>From what I can tell they have packed it in.  We've been receiving a lot 
of calls lately from Ex Tangent Software users. 

Please contact me directly offline if you would like to arrange for us to 
send a demo CD to you or your customer.
