         This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D relates to shares of common stock,
$0.001 par value (the "Shares"), of Data Dimensions, Inc. (the "Issuer") and
amends the initial statement on Schedule 13D dated April 15, 1996 (the "Initial
Statement"). This Amendment No. 1 is being filed by the Reporting Persons to
report the recent acquisition of Shares for the accounts of the White Rock
Clients. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein shall have the
meaning ascribed to them in the Initial Statement. The Initial Statement is 
supplementally amended as set forth herein.

ITEM 3.  SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

         The Shares reported in Item 5(c) were purchased for the accounts of the
White Rock Clients. The source of funds used to purchase the Shares for each of
the White Rock Clients was the funds made available to White Rock for investment
by such client. The source of the funds used for the acquisition of the Shares
for the account of Quasar was the working capital of Quasar. The aggregate
amount of funds used for purchases of the Shares by Quasar was $1,050,000. The
source of the funds used for the acquisition of Shares for the account of
Collins Capital was the working capital of Collins Capital. The aggregate amount
of funds used for purchases of the Shares by Collins Capital was $150,000.

         The Shares held for the account of the Quasar may be held through
margin accounts maintained with Arnhold and S. Bleichroeder, Inc. or other
brokers, which extend margin credit to Quasar as and when required to open or
carry positions in its margin accounts, subject to applicable federal margin
regulations, stock exchange rules and such firm's credit policies. The positions
held in the margin accounts, including the Shares, are pledged as collateral
security for the repayment of debit balances in the respective accounts.

ITEM 5.  INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

         (a) The aggregate number of Shares which may be deemed to be
beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons is 323,000 (approximately 9.22% of
the total number of Shares outstanding).

                  (i) All of the Reporting Persons other than Mr. Soros and
Thomas U. Barton may be deemed the beneficial owner of 312,000 Shares
(approximately 8.91% of the total number of Shares outstanding). This number
consists of (i) 282,000 Shares held for the account of Quasar and (2) 30,000
Shares held for the account of Collins Capital.

                  (ii) As a consequence of SFM's ability to terminate the White
Rock Contract with respect to all investments held for the account of Quasar,
including but not limited to those involving the Shares, and acquire the voting
and dispositive power held by White Rock with respect to the Shares,
notwithstanding that none of Mr. Soros, SFM or Quasar currently exercises
voting or investment discretion over the Shares, Mr. Soros may be deemed to be
the beneficial owner of the 282,000 Shares (approximately 8.05% of the total
number of Shares outstanding) held for the account of Quasar.

                  (iii) Thomas U. Barton may be deemed the beneficial owner of
323,000 Shares (approximately 9.22% of the total number of Shares outstanding).
This number consists of (i) 11,000 Shares issuable upon exercise by Thomas U.
Barton of the Barton Options currently held directly by him and (ii) the 312,000
Shares of which White Rock may be deemed beneficial owner.

         (c) Except for the transactions listed in Annex A hereto which were
made at the direction of Whiterock, there have been no transactions with
respect to the Shares since April 12, 1996 (the date of the last transactions
reported in the Initial Statement) by the Reporting Persons, SFM, Quasar or 
Collins Capital.
