           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
___________________________________________________________________________

(1)  GENERAL INFORMATION

     The consolidated condensed financial statements included herein have
     been prepared by the Registrant, without audit, pursuant to the rules
     and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain
     information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
     statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
     principles have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations,
     although the Registrant believes that the disclosures are adequate to
     make the information presented not misleading.  It is suggested that
     these consolidated condensed financial statements be read in
     conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes
     thereto included in the Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for
     the year ended April 30, 1996, as filed with the Securities and
     Exchange Commission on July 26, 1996.  There have been no significant
     changes in such information since the date of such Form 10-K.

     In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
     condensed financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of
     only a normal and recurring nature, necessary to present fairly
     (a) the financial position of the Registrant as of July 31, 1996, and
     April 30, 1996, and (b) the results of its operations for the three-
     months ended July 31, 1996 and 1995, and (c) cash flows for the
     three-months ended July 31, 1996 and 1995.

(2)  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

     During 1996, the Company recorded a valuation allowance against a
     portion of its $1.2 million net operating loss carryforward due to the
     uncertainty of its ultimate realization.  As a result, the Company also
     has not recorded a future tax benefit for the effect of the loss
     it incurred during the three months ended July 31, 1996.  These net
     operating loss carryforwards are available to offset future taxable
     income through the year 2012.

     ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
               AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net revenues of $5,277,249 for the three months ended July 31, 1996, have
decreased by 8% in comparison to the $5,719,632 of net revenues that were
reported for the comparable period in the prior year.  These amounts
include revenues from computer hardware and software shipments, revenues
from sales of computer forms and supplies, and revenues from various
related services such as mass real estate appraisal, digitizing maps,
hardware maintenance, software support, training, laser printing and
internal data processing.

Software sales increased 32% as compared to the prior year quarter
primarily because a significant contract for the Company's GAVEL and MIRRS
software and related services was signed in the first quarter of fiscal
1997.  While a few of the modules were installed during the first quarter,
the majority of the work related to this contract and the related revenue
will occur during the balance of this year.  This increase was offset by a
25% decrease in revenues from appraisal services because established
markets such as Ohio and Indiana are at the low end of their appraisal
cycles which have reduced opportunities for new work.  The Appraisal
Division is anticipating an upswing in its Ohio sales cycle during
the balance of this fiscal year and has taken steps to sign work in
other areas to offset the impact of its cyclical market as evidenced by
its award of two contracts for approximately $1.5 million in New York
during the first quarter of fiscal 1997.

As a result of the decrease in net revenues, cost of revenues for the
three months ended July 31, 1996, also decreased 16% to $3,181,779
compared to prior year amount of $3,793,041.  Part of this decrease is
due to an improvement in the Company's gross profit margin from 34%
in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 to 40% for the first quarter of
fiscal 1997.  The margin improvement can primarily be attributed to the
completion of a few mass real estate appraisal contracts that were problem
jobs in the prior year and the increase in higher margin software sales as
noted above.

Selling, general and administrative expenses have decreased by 5% to
$2,180,260 for the three months ended July 31, 1996, compared to $2,291,525
that was reported for the same period in prior year.  This decrease is
primarily due to the Company's efforts to reduce costs until its new Open
Window Series of products can be released.

As a result of the factors noted above, the Company reported an operating
loss of $84,790 for the three months ended July 31, 1996, compared to
$364,934 for the first quarter of fiscal 1996.  In addition, interest
expense, which is included in other expense, has decreased from $110,957
to $80,995 as a result of the Company's current focus on reducing debt.

                                      -7-
The Company's provision (credit) for federal income taxes generally
fluctuates with the level of pretax income (loss).  In addition, the
effective tax rate is generally impacted because of non-deductible
goodwill amortization related to the Company's acquisitions of ATEK
Information Services and Specialized Data Systems.  However, the Company
has not recorded the tax effect of its $149,301 loss for the three months
ended July 31, 1996, since the Company has recorded a valuation allowance
against its net operating loss carryforward as described in Note 2.

As a result of the factors noted above, the Company reported a net loss of
$149,301 or $.05 per share for the three months ended July 31, 1996,
compared to a net loss of $321,692 or $.11 per share for the prior year.
Weighted average shares outstanding has decreased from 2,941,408 to
2,863,355 primarily because the Company obtained approximately 150,000
shares of its common stock in March of 1996 as part of the severance
agreement with Allen F. Peat.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY

Working capital of $3,031,422 at July 31, 1996, is comparable to the
April 30, 1996, amount of $3,043,460.  These levels reflect current ratios
of 1.43 and 1.42, respectively.

Shareholders' equity at July 31, 1996, decreased by $127,253 to $5,017,117
from the balance reported at April 30, 1996, primarily because of the
$149,301 net loss.  As a result, book value per share has decreased to
$1.75 as of July 31, 1996, from $1.80 at April 30, 1996.

The nature of the Company's business is not property or equipment
intensive.  Net capital expenditures which were approximately $124,000
for the three months ended July 31, 1996, are slightly higher than the
prior year amount of $99,000.  They relate primarily to the purchase of
additional or new computer hardware and software for the Company's
technical and support personnel.  Net capital expenditures for future
periods are not anticipated to be significantly different from those
incurred in the current period.

As the Company's revenues are generated from contracts with local
governmental entities, it is not uncommon for certain of its accounts
receivable to remain outstanding for approximately three to four months.
As of July 31, 1996, the Company owed $3,030,000 on its $5 million
revolving credit agreement and $400,000 on its ESOP loan.  It is
anticipated that the revolving line of credit, together with existing
cash balances, and cash generated from future operations will be
sufficient for the Company to meet its working capital requirements
for at least the next twelve months.





                                      -8-
The Company cannot precisely determine the effect of inflation on its
business.  The Company continues, however, to experience relatively stable
costs for its inventory as the computer hardware market is very
competitive.  Inflationary price increases related to labor and overhead
will have a negative effect on the Company's cash flow and net income to
the extent that they cannot be offset through improved productivity and
price increases.
