          This Amendment is filed by and on behalf of Kleiner Perkins 
Caufield & Byers VII, L.P., a California Limited Partnership ("KPCB VII"), 
KPCB VII Associates, L.P., a California Limited Partnership ("KPCB IV 
Associates") and the general partners of KPCB VII Associates (the "General 
Partners").  It amends the Schedule 13D filed by KPCB VII, KPCB VII Founders 
Fund, L.P., a California limited partnership which subsequently merged into 
KPCB VII ("KPCB Founders Fund"), KPCB VII Associates, and the General 
Partners with the Commission on September 22, 1994, and amended on May 26, 
1995 (the "Schedule 13D") for shares of Preferred Stock, convertible into 
shares of Common Stock, of Platinum Software Corporation then held by KPCB 
VII, KPCB Founders Fund, KPCB VII Associates and the General Partners.  
Capitalized terms not defined herein have the meaning ascribed to them in the 
Schedule 13D.

          Only those items amended are reported herein.

ITEM 5.   INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

          (a)  See responses to items 11 and 13 of cover pages.

          (b)  See responses to items 7-10 of cover pages.

          (c)  To the best knowledge of KPCB VII Associates, none of KPCB VII 
Associates, KPCB VII or the persons listed on Exhibit B hereto has effected 
any transactions in the Shares during the 60 days prior to February ___, 1999.

          (d)  KPCB VII Associates is the general partner of Kleiner Perkins 
Caufield & Byers VII, L.P., a California limited partnership.  Brook H. 
Byers, Kevin R. Compton, L. John Doerr, Vinod Khosla, Joseph S. Lacob, 
Bernard Lacroute, James P. Lally and Douglas MacKenzie are the general 
partners of KPCB VII Associates and therefore have the power to direct the 
affairs of KPCB VII Associates, including decisions respecting the 
disposition of the proceeds from the sale of the Shares.  Under certain 
circumstances set forth in the limited partnership agreements of KPCB VII and 
KPCB VII Associates, the general and limited partners of such entities may 
have the right to receive dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of 
Shares owned by each such entity.

          (e)  The reporting persons each ceased to be beneficial owners of 
more than 5% of the outstanding securities of Platinum Software solely as a 
result of a change in the aggregate number of securities outstanding.
