FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 ***  Computervision Reports Preliminary Second Quarter Results  ***


BEDFORD, Mass., July 11, 1996 -- Computervision Corporation (NYSE:CVN)
today reported preliminary operating results.  The company expects to 
achieve earnings per share of approximately $0.16 for its second
quarter ended June 30, 1996, on net revenues of about $119 million,
which includes an estimated $44 million of software license revenue.
As a result, Computervision's 1996 second quarter earnings will be an
increase over both the $0.13 earnings per share for its 1996 first
quarter and the $0.14 earnings per share for the comparable quarter of
a year ago.  Software license revenue grew approximately 10 percent
over the first quarter and is around the same level as second quarter
1995.

Kathleen A. Cote, president and chief operating officer, stated, "While
we are pleased with our increasing profitability, we recognize that
$0.16 earnings per share is below financial analysts' earnings
estimates of  $0.18 - $0.19 for the quarter and our own previously
stated software revenue goal for the quarter of 20 percent year-over-
year growth.  Some large potential contracts, which we had hoped to
close by the end of the second quarter and, therefore, would have
further added to software revenues and profits for this quarter, now
appear likely to be closed, along with some other large contracts,
during the third quarter and over the remainder of the second half of
the year."

Cote added, "We continue to believe that our goals for 1996
profitability can be achieved and are confident that the business
relationships we are building with our customers are validating our
business strategy and approach.  We are focused on building a pipeline
of large orders, and this, coupled with our expanded sales and
marketing efforts on broader market opportunities, should allow us to
reach our second-half software revenue growth objectives."

During the quarter Computervision achieved a number of important
Electronic Product Definition (EPD) wins from its installed base and
new customers, further demonstrating the acceptance of this strategy in
the marketplace.  Contracts closed this quarter include Andersen
Corporation, BMW Rolls-Royce, British Telecom, DCN, Embraer SA,
Ericsson, Fiat, Kansei, Lucas Aerospace, Port Authority of New York and
New Jersey, and ZZSD Zelmer.

Computervision's Electronic Product Definition strategy is a proven
approach to developing, delivering, and maintaining products throughout
the entire product life cycle.  Electronic Product Definition allows
every part of an organization - design, development, manufacturing,

<PAGE>
support - to work in an optimized collaborative environment.
Final financial results for the second quarter will be provided on July
18, 1996.

      ***  Computervision Reports Second Quarter Earnings  ***

       -- Company on Track to Meet 1996 Profitability Goals --


BEDFORD, Mass., July 18, 1996  -- As previously indicated, Computervision 
Corporation today reported earnings for the second quarter ended June 30,
1996, of $0.16 per share on net revenues of $119 million.  This represents
an increase over both the $0.13 earnings per share recorded for the first
quarter of 1996 and the $0.14 earnings per share for the comparable quarter of 
a year ago. Software product revenue for the 1996 second quarter was $43.9 
million, compared with $40 million for the first quarter of 1996, and $43.1
million for the year earlier quarter.  For the first six months of 1996, 
Computervision reported net income of $18.8 million or $0.29 per share as
compared to $10.1 million or $0.20 per share for the same period in 1995.
 
Kathleen A. Cote, president and chief operating officer stated, "We
remain confident about our business and its growth potential.  Our
Electronic Product Definition (EPD) strategy is gaining wide acceptance
in the marketplace.  This is evidenced by substantial orders from
established and new Computervision customers for our EPD solution, our
open EPD tools and other products and services.  Our pipeline of new
business is continuing to grow in each of our major geographies,
including the U.S., Europe, Asia and emerging markets such as Eastern
Europe and Latin America.

"We continue to believe that our goals for 1996 profitability can be
achieved and are confident that our expanded sales and marketing
efforts should allow us to reach our second-half software revenue
growth objectives," said Cote.

allows every part of an organization -- design, development,
manufacturing, and support -- to work in an optimized collaborative
