ITEM 2.  ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

         (a) On January 6, 1997, Data Processing Resources Corporation ("DPRC")
         acquired all of the outstanding capital stock (the "Stock") of LEARDATA
         Info-Services, Inc., a Texas Corporation ("LEARDATA"). The Stock was
         purchased from General Atlantic Leardata Partners, L.P., Bruce M.
         Smith, Chris P. Smith, Steve P. Donaldson, Robert W. Howe and Barbara
         A. Kuhler (collectively, the "Shareholders") pursuant to a Stock
         Purchase Agreement dated December 17, 1996 ("Stock Purchase
         Agreement"), by and among DPRC, LEARDATA and the Shareholders.

                  Under the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the purchase
         price was $21,372,000, consisting of $17,329,000 in cash and 310,226
         shares of DPRC common stock, valued at $4,043,000 (computed using the
         average closing price of DPRC's common stock for the last 20 trading
         days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the
         signing of the Stock Purchase Agreement). Under the Stock Purchase
         Agreement, the Shareholders have certain registration rights with
         respect to the 310,226 shares of DPRC common stock they received in the
         acquisition. The principal Shareholders of LEARDATA have each entered
         into a covenant not-to-compete with DPRC in the principal geographic
         areas in which LEARDATA's business was conducted at the time of
         acquisition.

                  In determining the consideration to be paid in the
         acquisition, DPRC reviewed LEARDATA and its business and determined an
         appropriate aggregate value of LEARDATA's information technology
         staffing business to DPRC based on a multiple of adjusted earnings
         before interest and taxes on a 12 month trailing basis. A final
         determination of such value was arrived at by means of arm's length
         bargaining among the parties to the Stock Purchase Agreement.

                  At the time of the acquisition, there was no material
         relationship between LEARDATA (including its officers, directors and
         shareholders) and DPRC or any of its affiliates, or any director or
         officer of DPRC, or any associate of any such officer or director.

                  DPRC used a portion of the proceeds obtained from its initial
         public offering of securities to pay part of the cash portion of the
         purchase price. In addition, DPRC borrowed $9,500,000 under a credit
         facility with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. in conjunction with the
         consummation of the acquisition.

         (b) At the time of the acquisition, LEARDATA was engaged in the
         information technology staffing business, which it operated from one
         facility in Dallas, Texas. DPRC presently intends to continue to engage
         in the information technology staffing business in substantially the
         same manner and for the same purposes.

respective employment agreements". Mr. Rusty Smith stated, "DPRC's strategy for
future national expansion, while maintaining a high standard of ethics and
