Re: Creative Programming and Technology Ventures, Inc. Commission File No.
0-19817 Form 15
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This letter is transmitting to you the Form 15 being filed on behalf of
Creative Programming and Technology Ventures, Inc. ("CPTV"). Pursuant to Rule
12g-4(a), CPTV hereby requests acceleration of the effective date of the
de-registration to as early a date as possible. In support of this request for
acceleration of the effective date of this de-registration, we state as follows:
CPTV has approximately 80 holders of record calculated in accordance with
Rule 12g5-1. No securities are known to CPTV to be held by a voting trust,
deposit agreement or other similar arrangement. Furthermore, CPTV does not
have any knowledge that would indicate the form of holding of any
securities is being used primarily to circumvent the provisions of Section
12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Effective August 13, 1997, CPTV common stock is no longer being quoted on
the Nasdaq SmallCap Market, as a result of actions taken by Nasdaq to
delist CPTV's common stock, and despite several appeals by CPTV to maintain
the listing.

de- registration request. Please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned if
you have any questions.
