Item 4. Change in Registrant's Certifying Accountant
On August 13, 1998, Sanchez Computer Associates, Inc. (the
"Company") filed a Form 8-K announcing that as a result of the
merger of Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P., the registrant's auditors,
and Price Waterhouse LLP ("PW"), and the existence of a business
consulting relationship with PW which was expected to impair its
auditor independence, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PwC") was
dismissed as auditors of the registrant. On November 10, 1998,
the Company engaged Arthur Andersen LLP as the Company's
independent public accountants. The decision to engage Arthur
Andersen LLP was recommended to and approved by the Audit
Committee of the Company's Board of Directors.
