                IQ SOFTWARE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
          Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
                             April 30, 1998
                               (unaudited)


1.   Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to
Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not
include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations
have been included.

2.   Earnings Per Share
     
     In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per
Share" ("Statement No. 128").  Statement No. 128 replaced the previously
reported primary and fully diluted earnings per share with basic and
diluted earnings per share.  Unlike primary earnings per share, basic
earnings per share excludes any dilutive effect of options, warrants and
convertible securities.  Diluted earnings per share is very similar to the
previously reported fully diluted earnings per share.  All earnings per
share amounts for all periods have been presented, and where appropriate,
restated to conform to the Statement No. 128 requirements.  The diluted
weighted average common shares were calculated by adding common share
equivalents of 63,000 and 52,000 to the basic weighted average common
shares for the three months ended April 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

3.   Comprehensive Income

     In June 1997, the FASB issued Statement No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income" ("Statement No. 130"), which establishes standards
for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components
(revenues, expenses, gains and losses) in financial statements.  Statement
No. 130 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. 
The Company adopted Statement No. 130 on February 1, 1998 and has not
presented a statement of comprehensive income because the effect of the
components of comprehensive income is not material to its consolidated
financial statements. Accumulated other comprehensive income for the
quarter ended April 30, 1998 was $85,896 and consisted of net unrealized
gain on marketable securities available for sale and foreign currency
translation adjustments.

4.   Revenue Recognition

     In January 1998, the Company adopted the American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants ("AICPA") Statement of Position 97-2,
"Software Revenue Recognition," ("SOP 97-2"), as amended, which supersedes 
<PAGE>
SOP 91-1.  While some principles remain the same, there are several key
differences between the two pronouncements, including accounting for
multiple element arrangements.  SOP 97-2 addresses revenue recognition from
a conceptual level and does not specifically provide implementation
guidance.  The Company, based on its reading and interpretation of SOP
97-2, has not materially altered its accounting for license and services
agreements in the current period.  Revenue recognition under SOP 97-2 may,
in the future, result in a deferral of license fee revenue compared to
revenue recognition under SOP 91-1 for some agreements.

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and 
          Results of Operations  

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The Company's working capital increased $1,113,000 to $20,782,000 as
of April 30, 1998 from $19,669,000 as of January 31, 1998.  This increase
was due primarily to increases in working capital provided from operations
partially offset by additions to capitalized software development cost of
$237,000.
  
      The Company believes that the current cash, cash equivalents and cash
flow from operations will be sufficient to provide the liquidity and
capital resources to meet its lease obligations and to finance operating
needs, research and development activities and planned growth for at least
the next twelve months.

Results of Operations

Revenues

      Revenues were $6,269,000 for the quarter ended April 30, 1998 and
$5,981,000 for the quarter ended April 30, 1997, an increase of $288,000 or
5%. License fees were $3,655,000 for the quarter ended April 30, 1998 and
$3,803,000 for the quarter ended April 30, 1997, a decrease of $148,000 or
4%.

     Service fees were $2,614,000 for the quarter ended April 30, 1998
compared to $2,179,000 for the quarter ended April 30, 1997, an increase of
$435,000 or 20%.  Service fees increased principally as a result of
increases in training and consulting revenues.

Cost of License Fees

     Cost of license fees includes the amortization of capitalized software
development costs, royalties related to licensed products and the costs of
magnetic media, packaging and documentation.  Cost of license fees was
$391,000 or 6% of revenues for the quarter ended April 30, 1998.  For the
comparable quarter of the prior year, cost of license fees was $268,000 or
4% of revenues. The increase in cost of license fees in dollars and as a
percentage of revenue for the quarter ended April 30, 1998 is due primarily
to increases in amortization of capitalized software development costs.
Amortization of capitalized software development costs was $286,000 and
$195,000 for the quarters ended April 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
<PAGE>

Cost of Service Fees

     Cost of service fees consists of the costs associated with supplying
customers with technical assistance and training and consulting services.
Cost of service fees was $1,015,000 or 16% of revenues for the quarter
ended April 30, 1998.  Cost of service fees was $782,000 or 13% of revenues
for the quarter ended April 30, 1997.  The increase in cost of service fees
in dollars is due principally to increases in the Company's training and
consulting staff.  The Company expects costs of service fees to continue to
increase in dollars as the Company's customer base expands.

Development Expenses

     Development expenses were $648,000 or 10% of revenues for the quarter
ended April 30, 1998 and $518,000 or 9% of revenues for the quarter ended
April 30, 1997. The increase in development expenses in dollars and as a
percentage of revenue is due principally to an increase in the number of
current development projects which have not yet reached technological
feasibility and an increase in the costs associated with translating the
Company's products into foreign languages. The Company capitalized $184,000
and $227,000 of development expenditures for the quarters ended April 30,
1998 and 1997, respectively.

Selling Expenses

     Selling expenses were $2,311,000 for the quarter ended April 30, 1998
and $3,064,000 for the quarter ended April 30, 1997, a decrease of 25%. 
Selling expenses as a percentage of revenues were 37% for the quarter ended
April 30, 1998 and 51% for the quarter ended April 30, 1997.  The decrease
in selling expenses in dollars and as a percentage of revenues is due
principally to a reduction in the number of sales and marketing personnel
related to a change in the sales organization of the Company in fiscal
1998.

General and Administrative Expenses

     General and administrative expenses were $1,087,000 for the quarter
ended April 30, 1998 and $1,025,000 for the quarter ended April 30, 1997,
an increase of 6%. General and administrative expenses were 17% of revenues
for the quarter ended April 30, 1998 and 17% for the quarter ended April
30, 1997.

Income Taxes

     The Company's effective tax rates on pretax income were 28% and 10%
for the quarters ended April 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  Income tax
expense was $280,000 and $45,000 for the quarters ended April 30, 1998 and
1997, respectively.  The increase in income tax expense and the effective
tax rate for the quarter ended April 30, 1998 was due primarily to
increased income from operations. The increase in the effective tax rate
for the quarter ended April 30, 1998 was due primarily to a reduction in
the percentage effect of tax-free investment income because of the increase
in income from operations.

<PAGE>
     The Company does not provide for U.S. federal income taxes on
undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries as such earnings are
considered to be permanently reinvested.  The amount of undistributed
earnings which would be subject to U.S. federal income tax if repatriated
as of April 30, 1998 was approximately $1,108,000.  The tax liability on
these earnings, if repatriated, would not be material.
